Reverse Rain
Exact local time
Rain rises from a black sea. The hour curves the monument, minutes select its water channels, and each second travels upward as a wave front. A minute change dissolves one section before it reforms.
Impossible hydraulics
The copper spline is the hour-controlled monument curve. Green paths are minute channels. Bright horizontal fronts show droplets sharing the same second phase.
How to read it
The aqueduct's silhouette identifies the hour. Filled channels count through the minute, while the bright droplet front rises once per second.
Interaction
Drag or use the arrow keys to shift the low camera along the sea. The water law continues without input.
