When standing in front of the MOCAP wall clock by J.P.Meulendijks Design Studio, its numbers are clear and visible, but walk around it and you’ll notice that they slowly dissolve, falling apart in a vague white fuzz. Inspired by the movie industries motion capture technology, this striking optical illusion is created by small, white balls that extend various distances from the matte black surface on pegs of the same color and appear to float effortlessly in the air. I think that this clock is inspired also by the fluidity and impermanence of time – it seems that you can control it and make plans but suddenly you see that you can’t and the time runs so quickly that you can’t fix it. This is one more cool surrealistic clock with its idea and inspiration.
