For once you will be eager to hear your guests asking you what the time is, just to show off your new clock..and together figure out what time it is.  Designer Sander Mulder, has created a wall clock, which challenges the conventional way to show time.

“Our office clock fell, causing the minutes- and second pointer to come off and they were just laying in the transparent cover. Witnessing the random patterns that occurred while the hour pointer still rotated, the concept for the Continue Time was born. On this Continue Time clock, two out of the three pointers rotate around another pointer, instead of the central point on the clock face, as with traditional clocks. The resulting kinetic artwork, and fully functional clock, is continuously changing its shape during a full rotation of twelve hours.”

“While creating mesmerizing patterns on your wall the pointers are still read as with any traditional clock. The widest pointer (attached to the clockwork) shows the hours, the medium sized pointer (attached to the hour pointer) shows the minutes, the smallest pointer (attached to the minute pointer) shows the seconds.”
