    It is the first carillon clock as it plays music simultaneously with a person blinking his eyes, surprised by the singing birds. The Archimedes clock works with a system of four weights, counterweights, and strings regulated by a system of floats in a water container with siphons that regulate the automatic continuation of the clock.

In a musically expressive performance, the pulse generally does not align with the clicks of a metronome. [2] [3] This has led some musicians to criticize use of a metronome, because "musical time is replaced by clock time". [4]
