clock

hardware and software design collaboration

Overview

The stone is moved continuously, requiring 12 hours to travel from the ceiling at noon to just above the floor at midnight. Illustrating time, with time. I was fully responsible for the programming (C++) and ensuring the correct timing of the clock mechanism as well as developing the electronic hardware. Calibrating the stone was particularly tricky because the motor had a drift which needed to be measured and accounted for precisely. The artist is Benjamin Langholz.
