Whimsical Jumbles

Hidden within the secret compartments of an old clock is a collection of curious artefacts. Together they tell the tale of Whimsical Jumbles - a narrative created through Chronological Extraction from Charles Dickens' Master Humphrey's Clock.

The story is presented on a scroll, where every word is accompanied by its original page, line and word number. Resembling a ledger book, the scroll allows each word to be traced and verified within the source text.

Every artefact housed within the clock case has a place within the narrative, inviting visitors to piece together the story for themselves.

Created in direct response to the collection of watches belonging to Robert Halfon MP, May 2014.
