Looking at my source of inspiration (http://www.humanssince1982.com/a-million-times/) you can see that the random phases are way prettier than mine. But it would make the code uglier with a lot of "setTimeout"s, and I wanted to keep it clean.
Also on the clock front, can you change it to segment the array into different digits. Then just do a full right hand rotation of the clocks in that segment untill they get to their correct possition?
So if you have to update the single minute digit only those clocks spin and they only spin to the right untill they fall into their correct possition. If you needed to update hours and minutes then all of the clocks would rotate to the right untill they fall into position.
Would be faster and I think it may look cool.

The creator is in this thread and can speak for himself on this, but complaining about it not being a clock you'd actually use really doesn't contribute much.
Kudos.
But still, it really is clever.
Still, mesmerizing visualization.
