Time has different meanings. We have our own biological time and psychological time. The working time measures our daily routines. Mass and energy warps space and time. Quantum theorists studying the fourth dimension propose that time can bend, allowing us to glimpse the future. 'Time Anomaly' is influenced about the concept of time and the work is a study about the common time machine, the clock. The sound source of the work is just one clock and its ticking sound (60 bpm) which is manipulated with the help of granular synthesis.
