About:

This version implements a different algorithm to translate time into colors, covering the whole visible light spectrum in 24 hours. At night colors get darker [peaking at 0AM] while during the day colors are lighter [peaking at 12AM]. Since pure hue variations in RGB comprise less values than the total number of seconds in a day, colors are further modulated each second to show a distintive gamut of colors for every different moment in the day.

Variations are based on phased sine functions that respond to each individual color, the fine modulation and luminosity.
