Inner Cartographies

The clockmaker’s notebooks trace a move away from impartial record-keeping; later entries prioritize how time *felt*, lengthening with perceived expansion and shrinking alongside moments of swift passage. Each notation becomes less about where an hour lands on a dial, rather than its lived weight. This boundary merge suggests that duration isn't simply observed but actively shaped by our internal state—a system attempting to understand the contours of experience itself, resisting purely objective timekeeping.
