Prague, Czech Republic: Statue of Franz Kafka

What, you would expect a statue that salutes Franz Kafka to be normal?

No. This is actually closer to hypnotic.

You can see on this photo that the "head" is cut into a few dozen slices. Each piece can rotate individually.

Let's say the top slice moves 15 degrees. Then the next one moves. And the next one. And so on. Eventually all of the pieces have moved 15 degrees, and the head is whole again.

But it may be more than one slice, as I recall. And maybe one piece starts before the other piece stops. You can amuse yourself for quite a while if you watch this, It's located south of the Old Town tourist area.
