Project #3 Experimental Clock

Description

In this project, I tried to visullay express the passing time with the concentric circles with primary colors, millis needles along with the actual hands. With the growing size of circle and colors, you can feel the time flowing by second. You can also enjoy the geometirc shapes and colors when the circles oevelapping each other.

Design Process

Inspired by geometric shapes, I tried to create an abstract clock.The circles are set up to grow on the basis of second or millis and by adjusting the size value as s*n, I could generate the multiple concentric circles of different size. While this work shows the real clock hands, it als has the three rapidly rotating milis needles. Two of thos needles are set up to rotate in opposite direction by using if-else.

Reflection

Through this project, I found the flow of time can be an interesting inpiration for artist even though it is not visible. I think it can be expressed with size, color, shape, sound or even motion. I ejoyed this experimental clock projoct.
