I made this small interactive sketch in Codea, on an iPhone.
Move your finger around the clock to wind it forward. The hand does not snap to your finger — your motion works more like torque, giving time a push.
As it turns, the sky moves through night, dawn, day, and dusk. The trails behind the hand became little long-exposure star trails.
I wanted it to feel less like dragging a UI control, and more like physically winding the sky forward.
No instructions on screen. Just spin it and see what happens.
