”MOCAP “ wall clock

Design: J.P.Meulendijks for Plankton

description: 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..

It's appearance leans more to a piece of conceptual art ,then to a basic time-telling clock.

The big wall clock will catch your eye by changing shape when you walk around it. When you stand in front of the clock: the numbers are clear and visible. When you walk around it: numbers slowly dissolve, and seem to fall apart in little floating white balls.

This optical illusion results in a striking and intriguing piece of wall-art. Inspired by "MOTION CAPTURE" technique used in movies such as" Lord of the rings"+"Avatar"


material :wood (recycled)
dimensions:Height: 79 cm. / 31 inch width: 79 cm./ 31 inch depth: 10 cm./ 4 inch
