Many of you are familiar with the Clockworks Club demo experience I created to show off version 1 of the Clockworks system. I've created its successor using the new version:

The main innovation of version 2.0 of Clockworks is the ability to have multi-segmented objects animating together. Things don't just rotate in place, now. Here's a little video:

And a snapshot:

There is also interactivity in the form of a unique iris portal that opens when you walk up to it. This is powered by a new integration between Reflex and Clockworks.

It's going to take me some time to document the new version of Clockworks, so please be patient. Once I get that done, it will be available in the Sansar Store. In the meantime, the 1.0 scripts will still be available.

  Please do make another dance vid. I have shown that to a lot of people, and I'm seeing it's making the rounds in blogs, too.

  Everyone, a still pic ain't gonna do this justice in the slightest — you gotta experience it yourself for the full sensory fun!

  Short of that (or if you can't come into Sansar at the moment but are curious), check out this video I just grabbed: https://slack-files.com/T024FG3EQ-F6WMH0US1-22bdf73faf

  The animated lamps tripped me out, reminds me of ravey wavey cousins of the Pixar one. Something about it gave me a stop motion vibe.

  WOW WOW WOW if this is a tantalizing glimpse at what our future Sansarian nightlife is gonna look like, I for one welcome our new robot lamp overlords!

  My gosh, so impressive but looks very complex to setup... I think a video tutorial to see how you setup each element would be helpful... you have a very BIG head!

  This is going to take a while to document. There are a lot of layers to it. But I intend to show how someone else could implement every piece of this themselves.

  I decided to make my own video of it, too:

  I finally figured out how to record videos using a built in Windows 10 feature and found it works handily when I switch to using my HTC Vive. Using your head to control the camera direction really makes for a smooth, "live" feel.

  Thank you both.

  I have no current plans to directly enter the contest, but I'm helping some talented people who are entering it to add animations to their scenes.
