Reflectius Clock

While sourcing cool tech stuff to write about for ReadyMade’s Control Room, I spotted this Art Lebedev Reflectius Clock. It uses a laser beam and rotating mirrors to create the numbers. Check out the website for a demo.

Although the laser light is probably pretty hard to see in this scale in bright light, the mechanism is very cool. I’m thinking large scale though in order to maximize the mesmerizing effect of the rotating mirrors and moving beam. Maybe inside a vapor filled space. Very cool. Thanks
