Desk Clock Plays Life, Counts Yours One Second at a Time
Posted by Gizmodo US Edition at 10:00 PM on June 30, 2008
I like this Life Clock. What makes it for me is not the fact that you can do it yourself using Arduino components--the open-source electronics prototyping platform--or that it can tell you the temperature and play Conway's life on its own. No, what makes it all come together is the simple wood design and the use of 60s sci-fi spaceship computer lights. [Make]

This looks just like the sign at the local bank telling time and temp which hasnt changed in at least 30 years (though the bulbs sometimes burn out and it reads oddly. I recall seeing it say -23(F) once. I hope I never see that again....

Life clock? Where's the spinny wheel and the little cars that you use to transport your family. Look more like Connect Four. Pretty sneaky sis!

Well, it certainly doesn't look anything like a death clock.
