D/A Clock by Alvin Aronson, this video will make you want one.
This object plays on the common LED-display digital clock with physical segments that slowly fade in and out of a white surface. The D/A Clock introduces new characteristics to the digital mediation of time: a physical dimension and intermediate states – the time between 0 and 1.

This is a clock called Verbarius that writes the time in words. It comes with 5 languages (English, German, Spanish, French and Russian), but you can also load any other language through a computer. It’s not that cheap, it will set you back a little over € 130. The clock is by Art Lebedev, who you might know for their Optimus keyboard.
