The stepper motor rotates the stone at a speed proportional to the wind speed data from the weather station in Saint Petersburg. The stone gradually turns into sand. In real time, this natural process occurs constantly and is called Corrasion. This work is an attempt to realize the power of processes occurring in nature and their tremendous scale.

The densely stacked matter was formed layer by layer in the nonhuman time scale period. A stone is grating a stone, and the history of the Earth is revealing and immediately disappearing while turning into fine fractions. To be rearranged in the remote future into a new entity.
