First Medieval Time Machine


This is the boy in me... I read somewhere that if the great library at Alexandria hadn't been burned by Christians during the early days of the first millenium, we might have reached the moon by the year 1200, almost 800 years earlier than Mr. Armstrong's walk. Well, I tried to imagine (given that premis) that we might have created time machines in the medieval period.

Interesting. I especially like the pictures you use.

the collage is made up of several elements. One is part of a Bosch painting. Or is it Brueghel. Another part comes from some waters slides. There are a lot of small pieces in the work which I can't remember.
