Description: SMIL animation of the simplified operation of the escapement, and "second" and "minute" discs of the Corpus Clock. For clarity, each "minute" is divided into only 10 "seconds", each 6 times longer than an ordinary second, and the "minute" dial is folded to the right. The green lines represent slots in the rotating disc, while the blue lines represent fixed slots.
