Fibonacci Clock

I saw a cool idea for a clock on a Kickstarter, and decided to build my own. The idea is that the clock shows the Fibonacci sequence (as high as 5, at least), and you tell the time based on which cells are lit up which colors. The sequence - starting with the smallest cells and increasing from there - goes 1, 1, 2, 3, 5. You figure out the hours by adding up the values of any cells colored green. You figure out the minutes by adding up the values of any cells colored blue and multiplying by 5 (giving the clock a 5-minute resolution). If a cell is colored red, it should be counted in the sums for both hours and minutes. I really like it - it's got a very art deco feel to it.
