And the fourth was in the museum labratory exhibit. Its a touch box with three materials, glass, metal and wood. The idea is to calculate over a period of time the deterioration of the materials from sweat and any other things we happen to give off.

Its basically saying that artifacts deteriorate from the the human touch and from the chemicals we give off mainly sweat. Everytime one of the materials is touched the number goes up on the clock, it could be a hell of a time to wait lol!.I just thought it was a mad experiment and its great to have some tactile stuff going on in the museum.
hey i was the 32,652 idiot to have touched it, cool!

I was referring to the 800 down to 750 on the longest side of photos.
cheers
