Hmmm .. this could totally work as a garden ornament, perhaps with highly reflective balls hung over a pond .. with submerged lighting to enjoy at night.
This got me thinking if there is a way to use a number of different foucault's pendulums of different frequencies to have the pendulum wave show the current time with its number of nodes as the pendulums swing plane pivots with the rotation of the earth.
