A CLOCK POWERED BY MARBLES
Embed
- Published on Feb 10, 2026
- There’s no battery inside.
No circuit boards.
No software running in the background.
Time is measured through motion.
Marbles roll through channels.
Gears reset paths.
Gravity does the work.
Every movement is mechanical.
Every second is physical.
Supporters see it as a perfect mix of design and engineering.
Critics say it’s more art than practicality.
But it proves something important:
Modern tools don’t replace fundamentals.
They let us rebuild them in new ways.
Even time can be redesigned -
one marble at a time.

That's not a wall clock,this clock itself needs room of its own
Its a plastic clock 😅,or maybe its a air clock
You could call it a room clock
Pues , será un reloj de espacio
funny, clocks have been using pure mechanics for centuries, pendulums, then wrist watches
My phone also runs on pure mechanics so does my body
@torrin4615 i don't think i would call electronics be working on mechanics but ok
@torrin4615I don't think you get what mechanics mean lmao
It's not all mechanical there is some electronics sensors to recognize the marble color and sort it
@torrin4615phones are electronic and organisms are biomechanical, we consume external energy sources
Neither are the same mechanics as the video
Btw the guy who made this is called ivan miranda
ivan Miranda channel on yt. he made the clock. but maybe ai made ivan Miranda
He’s too cringe to be ai
@sorak25he may not be that cool or funny, but his brain is bigger than all of ours put together and he seems kind hearted. it may not be as important nowadays, but sometimes it is 🤍
@sorak25 that's exactly what AI would say.
Ivan Miranda is a genius man…
Watch needs wall❌
Watch needs room✅
Clock not watch
We're regressing back to when electronics used to be huge.
@Agent_E1994 new technologies always start out large and slow but they progress to be smaller overtime
I swear these channels never credit.
This is by RUclips Ivan Miranda, he’s been working on these for years
Music from the movie "Drive", in the scene where the driver is waiting for the robbers
Imagine how many future technologies are there that currently requires absurd engineering and takes up a giant space but with diffirent techs, it's much easier to construct and takes up a tiny space
Using the chromatic remix is gold, thats why i liked
Estoy seguro d q no es d los q venden en Amazon, y tampoco tiene pinta d ser muy silencioso, eso sí, vale menos q un Rolex
You know what else tells time through pure mechanics? A fucking watch.
Immagine showing this when its NEW YEAR🎉
That’s insane. My brain can’t even imagine it
I wish it was so much smaller! It’d be so cool
They must have been tripping absolute balls to come up with this
What time is it?
"Wait it's refreshing"
Still so f-ing cool
Wunderbare Idee. Geil gemacht.
a alva majo le gusta esto
❤❤❤❤❤
Who had to hear the whole thing just for that saucy beat❤
Music is what got my attention in the first place
Tick of the Clock 🔥🔥
Crazy thats process takes more than a second
Time art
Wall clock ❌
Room clock ✅
SAND THIS TO THE WINTERGATAN GUY!
This is an awesome clock though but definitely needs a bigger area to be displayed
Awesome!
The song is Chromatics - Tick Of The Clock.
I have one on my nightstand. I sleep in the next room.
Clocks🚫
Drive (2011)✅️
That's wild!
The caption reminds me of "this is the first boat powered entirely by wind"
Gives the term Time slippage a new meaning
Reloj de pared ❌
Habitación del reloj ✅
creative, noisy clock is using too much energy.
I love it, some beautiful mechanical art
Ivan Miranda ❤
Now that freaking awesome.
This is pretty cool
This seems like something you can build in Minecraft
60 balls = 60 sec, nice 👍
Thats marblelous
marvelous*
@proffesional_hater you're succeed with your username
Nice 😎
Was wondering what the marble machine guy was up to
And you think a clock ticking would drive you crazy
En vez de reloj de pulsera llevo una pulsera con un código QR.
Lo puedo escanear con mi móvil y me dice la hora exacta.😊
Можно сделать две строки: часовую и минутную. Тогда часовая может обновляться раз в час.
Looks awesome im sure it sounds awesome the first 5 mins probably wanna wear earplugs or some noise cancelling earphones
We need more moving parts, more cowbell!
Looks cool AF. But I betcha that computer in the foreground handles some of the logic
Even if it didn’t have eletrônics it needs electricity.
It’s not a mechanical watch
@OnemoreJoker Exactly. No spring to be wound to power this (admittedly really awesome looking) clock
Just thinking of how it’s working giving me anxiety😂
Hell yeah! He did it!!
Damn if there's no software involved it must have a lot of gears and cogs
It sure does 👌🏼
A lot..!
You shouldnt steal content - Ivan Miranda made this
That is awesome 😮
Okay, this is cool!
Very practical
Figure out a way to make the balls going up the ladder count out the seconds
Unreal!
Does the owner of this,the guy who built this clock and published it on RUclips, know you are using it on your channel?
IvanMiranda
Not only that, but it's said here its made by ai. Get this short deleted
Just ask " did you give credit to the real creator " or just ask "did you give credit" 😭✌️
It's pure intellectual theft. This video should be demonetised the same as it would be if you used someone else's music.
@Revuelta.Laborgy if you read everything, there is no credit given to the author. So no need to "ask", that's purely mischievous
1440 minutes... That is a lot of marbles that need to be loaded and stored perfectly for this to be purely mechanical 😊
That's the marble machine
Ill unplug my wall clock and stick a marble in it now that I know. Thanks for the tip 😂
That’s not a wall clock, that’s a clock wall.
Very cool
Mechanic digital clock
So freaking cool
That would be so annoying while sleeping 😂
Insanely cool looking, i bet that shit is deafening though 😂
Its cool but i dont want a clock that loud
It'll be 10 past by the time it comes into view!
Super! Rachunek za prąd też...😅
Just when I thot human was dumb. I am rejuvenated by this important machine.
Music name : tick of the clock by chromatics
Thank you. The internet needs more people like you
I remember hearing this music at the start of Drive movie and i searched for the name but didn't find it ,now thanks to you i do
@bladerunner2142I think that's nightcall by kavinsky
@Dhruv26682no bro the movie starts with tick of the clock in the background
@Dhruv26682nightcall is the opening credits music
Pure mechanics.
*Has a digital device right in front of it
Awesome 🤩
Amazing
Che figata!!!! 🤩
Wall clock ? Clock can be room itself
Pure mechanics... Mostly electronics though
But it need a Micro Controller so it isnt working fully mechanic right?
The point is, the clock is digital, a DIGITAL layout for a MECHANICAL clock, not a MECHANICAL clock with a MECHANICAL layout
actually your mechaical clock (with arrows) called analog
Cool 👍👍👍
🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
És mi állítja meg a golyókat a megfelelő pozícióban?
When we see some thing like this we have a saying in India "When some one asked where is your nose you show it by twisting your hand around your neck".
You can’t hear anything else in the house, but it’s cool.
First time I’ve seen it like channel actually credit the person(check description)
That middle line could have used three more balls though
5 more
Luv this one
Just Beautiful
Same time lol 😂😂😂
Sick
So according to this clock 1 minute is 64 seconds??
Thats FUCKING amazing
Ivan Miranda, créditos que é bom, nada né?
Cool 👍
Wow!
Instead of gears this clock uses freerolling balls and a series of little like elevators to cary them in the perfect pattern.
With so many moving parts Its like a rue Goldberg machine of clocks.
I want this to take over my house and life
So for 4 or 5 seconds, I have no idea what time it is.😂 cool clock, though I'd use it.🎉
