Last Clock is a clock that is a record of its own history: it has a second hand, a minute hand and an hour hand. The hands are arranged in concentric circles the outermost circle being seconds, the middle circle is minutes and the innermost circle hours. The major difference between it and  a regular clock is that each of the hands of Last Clock are made from a slice of live video feed. As the hands rotate around the face of the clock they leave a trace of what has been happening in front of the camera. Once Last Clock has been running for at least 12 hours you end up with an easy-to read mandala of archived time.

The video feed for Last Clock can be any video source: a camera mounted on the clock itself, looking at what is happening in front of it; a remote camera streamed over the Internet or TV signal fed directly to the clock. The clock can thus display the local space, remote space or media space respectively.
