Sonitum Horarium is a sound installation by Hans Beckers in which many different kinds of desert sand from different continents form the musical instruments. This installation showcases the fascinating sound of sand: the desert sand flows through hour glasses created especially for this installation. Each produces its own specific rustling and sound. Never before has time passed so beautifully.
