What if your display wasn’t powered by pixels but seemingly alive creatures? That’s the visual effect of the , a clock filled with ferrofluid, a liquid created by NASA as a “liquid rocket fuel that could be drawn toward a pump inlet in a weightless environment by applying a magnetic field” all the way back in 1965. Fifty years later it’s being used as an aquarium of time.The Ferrolic Display’s software can be modified via web browser and connects via Wi-Fi, meaning in theory users could experiment with the display for purposes beyond time keeping, manipulating the combination of powerful electromagnets and ferrofluid within in all sort of creative manners.
