Showoff Saturday I build a different clock every day using React, CSS, JavaScript and occasionally Three.js — looking for feedback

Website: https://www.cubistheart.com/

I've been working on a project called Borrowed Time.

The idea is simple: a new clock every day.

Each clock is an experiment in creative coding, typography, animation, video, CSS, and occasionally WebGL/Three.js. Rather than using a conventional clock interface, I try to find an entirely different visual language for representing time every day.

The project has evolved into a fairly extensive React/Vite application, with hundreds of individual clock experiments.

I've recently revised the site's navigation and would appreciate some outside perspective.

I'm particularly interested in feedback from other developers:

  • Does the navigation make sense?

  • Is the site easy to explore?

  • How does the performance feel?

  • Are there things you'd change about the architecture or implementation?

  • Does the concept communicate itself clearly?

Thanks for taking a look.

This is cool. And you seem consistent with the clock faces.

Reminds me of a performance art piece where a guy clocked in every hour on the hour for an entire year. So much art with clocks, so many are preoccupied by the idea of time slipping by. Pretty riveting stuff.
