Exhibition Label: "Cryptograph: An Exhibition for Alan Turing," Mar-2012, Stephen Goddard McLaren has worked for many years on an "object-based calendar system" utilizing hand-made dice (six-sided for the standard year, eight-sided for leap years). Although he found the physical installations of his "time machines" to be difficult to maintain, they remain an interesting analog to other computing machines.
