Stealth Clock

My stealth clock works….pieces move to the time, yet I seriously doubt you could look at it and figure out the exact time.

File name: Final_Clock

My Process:
-I started this project by opening Processing's clock code:
Open ;Basics; Input; Clock

-The moving orange rectangle on the left moves to seconds, as does the small black outlined rectangle in the bottom right corner.
-The small circle in the bottom left corner moves every minute.
-The blue line on the left side moves every hour.

-The cubes do not move to time. They are just something fun I put into my code to give it an extra umf. I tweaked the code.... I deleted some of it and re-wrote it with the help of Processing.org.

How I found the cubes:
Open; 3D and OpenGL; Transform; PushPopCubes

Process Cont…

*First, I started off just playing around with the ready-made clock Processing had
_1Clockhands

*Next, I worked with the clock, shapes, and color to create:
_2Clock

*Next, I added other moving elements, a circle, and a square
_3Clock

*Next, I added the Cubes and changed the shapes of the second, minute, and hour hands
_4Clock

*Finally, I changed the moving blue rectangle into an orange rectangle that moved to each second
_5Final_Clock
