A beautiful little clock for your bedside table, inspired by the Fibonacci Clock kickstarter.

The clock is displayed in a web browser, by opening the index.html file provided.

There are two ways to use the clock:

1. Recommended: View it online at mrfishie.github.io/fibonacci-clock
2. Clone the repo and view it locally.

Cloning the repo is a bit more complicated. First, you need git installed. Navigate to the directory where you would like to place the clock, and run the command

git clone https://github.com/mrfishie/fibonacci-clock

The repo will be cloned into the fibonacci-clock directory. To view the clock, open the index.html file in this directory in your browser.

The clock displays hours, minutes, and seconds, using the first five Fibonacci numbers: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5. The sizes of the boxes are equivalent to the number they represent:

The colour of the cells are used to determine if the cell is adding to the minutes or hours. The colours are:

• Blue - empty (ignore)
• Red - hours
• Green - minutes
• Yellow - hours and minutes

To find the hours, add up the values of each of the red and yellow squares. This will give you a number between 1 and 12.

To find the minutes, add up the values of each of the green and yellow squares, and then multiply this by 5. This will give you a number between 0 and 60.

The amount of seconds are shown by white flashes on blocks every 5 seconds. These are calculated in the same way as minutes.

To view the complete current time, move your mouse underneath the boxes. The full time will be shown.
