Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity?

Guys, seriously, can someone please explain to me how the Clever Little Clock (http://www.machinadynamica.com/machina41.htm) actually imporves the sound inside the litening room?

GeoffKait, that passage by Aldiss is very inspiring. And perhaps suggestive of CLC's principle of operation? An anchor into concrete reality of the so elusive 'here and now'? Perhaps my lucky Pecan works the same way.

I didn't mean to suggest that the excerpt from the short story was any sort of hint as to the clock's operation. The intention in my last post was to suggest that the concept of Time is one we all tend to take for granted, but, in reality, Time is very mysterious and technically difficult to pin down. Kind of like the Clock.

Of course Geoffkait, and so is my Pecan, my now retired Fung Sui woodden forks, and let's not forget my pet anchovy--preserved for 46 years between two glass microscope slides--which reminds me of the ever-growing gap of time between this ever vanishing now and the long-vanished 'then' so long ago when the 6-year-old me plucked the little fish from under the left-most fish-monger stand in the main fish market of Santa margherita Ligure. Time is very mysterious indeed, and forms the basis of any personal mythology. Is perhaps the CLC a personal musical mythology generator of sorts?

I have posted two or three times on the subject of time, but they have not appeared on this thread. Why?
