Design by JAN PAUL
“Time is an illusion”
Most wall clocks have the same basic shape: round. Also the same looking time-indication by numbers or stripes.
“MOCAP” steps away from the basic. Its appearance leans more to a piece of conceptual art than to a basic time-telling clock. When you stand in front of the clock: the numbers are clear and visible. When you walk around it: numbers slowly seem to dissolve and appear to fall apart in little floating white balls. This optical illusion results in a striking and intriguing piece. Inspired by “MOTION CAPTURE”, a technique used in the movie industry.
Materials: composite / wood / metal
Color: Clock face finished in matted black, causing the bright white balls to seemingly float in mid-air.
- Clock hands finished in anthracite so they are subtle visible. against the matted black background.
