A Carpet From Digital Watches

Artist Heidi Voet created this fetching piece of colorful carpeting from thousands of digital watches all set to the exact same time.

…at intervals throughout the day, the watch alarms simultaneously ring in a symphony of digital chimes. Over the course of the exhibition, the watches will inevitably malfunction, losing their synchronicity and eventually sounding like an out of rhythm and out of tune orchestra.
