Does anybody know where I can find other music similar to that of the video?

Reminds me a lot of this BT's album This Binary Universe that came out in the mid 2000's. Here's a youtube playlist of it:

What will this cost in retail? I hope it isn't anywhere close to 7.500 euro.

I'd be interested if they made a clock out of this, somehow.

Did you stop watching before the one-minute mark? Or are you asking about an analog clock?

This is very beautiful. The clock is probably the "killer app" for this.

It would also keep the cats amused; like watching a fishtank for them.

Honestly I think they should have showed that way sooner, because that's what turned my interest from "That's kind of cool" to "Whoa! Now I want it!".
