Description
Jerome Simon rare "Design in Time and Light" light-beam projection Clock Note: another original example in MOMA collection
This is really cool…Created (and patented) in 1981 by Jerome Simon, the extraordinary "Design in Time and Light" is a light-beam projection clock. The arched chrome and glass base magnifies a single beam of light, periscoping it through the underside of the central acrylic tube. Motorized moving mirrors in the back reflect the light and project different shaped beams onto the round frosted glass clock face: A larger circular beam marks the hour and two thin beams mark the minute and second. A short chrome tube behind the small mirrors houses the motor/gears. A switch at the back of the base controls the light output.
The design, in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art, was produced in a limited edition by the Beamo Corporation of Cambridge, Massachusetts.
