The design is based on the 1971 Chromachron clock by Tian Harlan. It has a background of 12 unmoving uniquely colored pie slices, and a moving "hour hand" consisting of a mask covering the entire background except for one hour's slice. As that gap moves around the dial, you will see one background color slowly disappearing and the next one filling the gap. On the exact hours, you will see only one color filling the entire slice. In this way you can easily estimate the time within 5 minutes. It is particularly useful for users with poor eyesight and can often be easily read without corrective lenses making it perfect for a night-stand clock.
So what about those spirals? That is my attempt to make something pretty to fill in the unused space but still be based on the current time. They are not meant to be useful, but if you are interested in how they relate to the time, it consists of three overlapping sets of spirals in red, green and blue. The red spirals represent the minute hand, green the hour hand, and the blue spirals don't move at all. Where they overlap, the colors add together just like light. The only time that all three sets of spirals exactly overlay each other is on the exact hours. That is the only time you will see pure black & white spirals. The rest of the time they overlap in varying ways to generate yellow, magenta and cyan.
If you watch very closely, you can just barely see the red spirals moving. It takes one minute for them to move from one blue spiral to the next. The motion therefore is very subtle but you will notice that every few seconds the colors that you see are completely different even though you can barely notice any change from moment to moment. Also interesting is that because the red, green, and blue spirals add together just like light, the overall mix of colors never changes. That means that from a distance it always appears white even though close up it is very colorful and ever changing.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
