Do you remember watching Power Rangers, or Transformers, when several of the protagonists combined together to form one big mega-uber-robot? This is a bit like that, but more punctual.

Swedish designers Humans Since 1982 have put together a digital clock made up of the hands on 24 individual analogue clocks. They automatically rotate to display the correct time as a digital display.

The piece is called Clock Clock, and it'll be on display at the Röhsska Design Museum in Sweden from June through mid-August 2009.
