    I stumbled upon this -- beyond mechanical I find different ways of timekeeping pretty fascinating, and I thought this was pretty great: uses ferro fluid to create a digital display. Hope you enjoy!

    Where digital meets nature? Where in nature do Ferro Fluids exist. But it is pretty cool.:)

    Looks like what I would expect to see in a petri dish in a fertility clinic! UGH!

    Seen this a while back, little pricey if I recall correct.

    ( just looked $8-9000 )
