The Möbius Clock is an OpenGL program I wrote in 1999 to practice using different features of OpenGL.
It shows a 24-hour analog clock where the numbers are written along a Möbius strip, so that it takes the hours hand two complete revolutions to point at all the numbers, rather than just one as in an ordinary 12-hour analog clock.
The latest release is available here. Currently, the Möbius Clock is only available as a Windows screen saver. In the future I plan to build versions for other operating systems.
