Cardboard Clocks
I was in a field where thousands of big, carboard clock faces had been attached to sticks that were pushed into the ground. . . each one showed a different time. I am thinking along the lines of time exisiting "just on paper"; being a subjective experience; being deceptive. . . .or maybe "It's Time!" as the message.

Re: Cardboard Clocks
A compressed message about the nature of time - different instances of time mark separate things (here in space), and hence make it easier to tell things apart. Like a cardboard clock may be used to teach children to tell the time, time teaches us how to read events and tell them apart (spaced out "in time" - like the sticks with different times). Of course it also says that in this sense time is a "useful illusion" (as the teaching aid of a cardboard clock is, too).
