Dancing neon lights build a giant digital clock

Imagine a $15,000 clock radio that works on a system of pullets, motors and Ardunino and you have CL:OC, by Grosse 8.

It’s a light installation that sits smack dab in the middle of a traditional watch and the future-is-now smartphone in your pocket.

“As the lights pulse, you are able to watch as light tries to reach the other side of the tube. It gets thinner and thinner and ends in the middle of the tube.”

Apparently, it’s quite hypnotic in person. The tubes actually rearrange randomly each time, creating an unpredictable effect that can keep audiences watching the time tick away for 20 minutes.
