Watching a clock tick can be a reflective and tranquil experience, as we bear witness to the ceaseless passage of time. With each tick and tock, we are reminded that every second counts, and that each moment is a unique opportunity to create, to love, to learn, and to grow.
My clock artfully blends the utility of timekeeping with minimalistic art, serving as a testament to the power of this simple yet poignant reminder. May it serve as a reminder to us all to use our time wisely and to make the most of every fleeting moment.
This interactive and dynamic piece is 100% drawn with code, showing the current time based on the viewer's clock. It has 365 colors, one for each day of the year. The order of colors is automatically shuffled at the start of each new calendar year. You can click on the piece to cycle through the colors. These colors match with Time Piece 00:01, even when they re-shuffle every year.
Time Piece 00:02 contains extra utility, including 12hr / 24hr time switch, a stopwatch, background brightness control and music toggle. The interactions lay in the piece for you to discover.
The music is not a composition, but rather my first play with completely random computer generated synth sounds, timings and patterns. Abstract and only potentially pleasant. Enjoy, maybe 🙂
