On Auditorium Shores in Austin, TX, we will erect a 34 foot tall working wooden clock.   The largest gears will be fully four feet wide.  Constructed in the style of a gothic tower, the clock will feature awooden chain which will carry revelers New Year's Resolutions up into the workings of the clock all day and into the evening of December 31st, 2008. 

At midnight, (or midnight GMT) the clock will catch fire in a ring of multicolored fireballs and a huge column of fire from within, and burn to the ground.


See below for a drawing of the clock and a photo of the trigger that will release a 50 foot high column of flame into the night...
