What's the Time ? It isn't just the hour we can read on our watch. The Time can designate the action of ageing; predictions, things which will be released in the future; space ...

At school, Mr Heiser and Sahra have asked us which objects we would save if we would create a time capsule. A time capsule is an object where you put things you want to conserve for the next generations. Thus they will seen, thanks to these objects, our lifestyle, our level of development etc... So, with Inga, we decided to save a car and a radio, with CDs.
A car because it evolves at each generations, each generations has its own kind of car. The automobiles are good proofs to show our lifestyle. Now, they are very developted, everything it's automatic, and that make us very impressed, but, perhaps, in the future, they'll be without any wheels, they'll fly in the sky .. So our grandsons could laught of us, and of our banger.

Furthermore, we have thought to save a CD player ( with CDs ), because that is a double testimony : in a first point, the radio can show the technologie of our time, even if the technology of the future generations will be better, and the CDs'll attest the music of our era. Personally, I think that our music could be much better than the future and electronic music !
