I wonder if I could make a tuning fork clock... Seems like it wouldent be too hard, at least to make one that is roughly keeping time.

12 notes in the chromatic scale, 12 hours a day... a dozen solenoids and some programming in MaxMSP or Supercollider would get the tuning fork clock done.

I mean tuning fork clock like the Bulova Accutron

LOL leave it to my background in sound art installation to completely misunderstand what you meant. I actually did make a room-sized interactive clock installation (for lack of space to describe how it all worked) for my grad thesis.

Now I am curious about this room sized interactive clock...

Vibrations…reminds me I just saw that Canon filed a patent which uses magnets to create a Hall effect for IBIS. All the existing systems use voice coils, which are bigger and less precise.

For those moments when you _want_ vibrations in your electronics.
