Placed my cursor at the top of the hour peak on the 'Peaks' clock. Few moments later, it shifted slightly to the left. Had a bit of existential dread as I saw time slipping away.
Nice clocks though.

#12Nice, very innovative. It makes me think of weird stuff like how about a pac-man running around the dial consuming your seconds as you watch? wooka wooka wooka wooka...
There's a lot of Pac-Man watches... most of them not very exciting, but this one [1] might be what you're looking for.

#13The once-per-millennium marks are captivating. They feel almost within our understanding, but not quite.
Like those insane gear ratio videos on YouTube... You know the final gear is turning, logically, but the fact that the Sun will eat the Earth long before the gear completes a single turn lends a strange perspective.

#14Love the binary and wave clocks, instantly got me thinking about how it could work as a subtle graphical element in a landing page footer or something like that.

I saw a neat one where they put the last gear in a block of cement while still spinning the first one quite fast.

#18I like the combined blob clock a lot! I plan to make a codepen of it, with just hours, minutes and seconds, to see what that's like.
When you're done, I'd love to see it as well, and I'm sure others would - yours was my exact thought when I got to that part!

#20awesome post and thread
clocks for me were an entry point to font creation and broadcast design. they make a great platform for design and coding experimentation
