Spotted over at Design Miami, this exhibit features an LCD screen with a man drawing, then erasing, then redrawing a clock for every minute, or every hour for a loop period of 12-hours. I think I might have to pay somebody’s grandfather to come do this at my home 12 hours a day. How cool would it be to have ...
