Description

Bar Code Clock is a clock showing hours, minutes, and seconds displayed as bar code data. The widths and spaces of the bar code's parallel lines change with the time.

I created this Internet clock using code from a JavaScript resource site found on the web. I replaced the standard numbers with my own bar code files to convert time into a hypnotic animated pattern. The actual digits take up a considerably small space to leave room for the black and white bars to do there dance.
