DABs Clocks is a collection of hand made, one of a kind devices that each display time in unconventional and interesting ways. These time pieces are both functionally and aesthetically pleasing. I design and build some of my clocks without any assistance. For others I turn to Guy Marsden for the engineering and fabrication phase. In these situations I bring a concept to Guy and through an iterative and collaborative process I'll eventually create a 3D representation of the clock that Guy will build.
Ring Light Clock
-Inspired by "Shadow Play"
Modified "Shadow Play" clock such that instead of a finger a linear actuator is activated and a post rises up and creates the hour and minute shadows. Red and Blue LEDs, turned on only when the actuator is activated, are used to distinguish hours and minutes. When not in the time mode there could be a continuations subtle light show as shown in the video.
