LightRail Timer

Description

This code project is a personal clock that displays hours, minutes, and seconds using the p5 library.
The hours are displayed by the different trains that arrive at the train station. The black display box hanging off the station displays the next coming train. The key for what every symbol represents can be found on the left. The lightrail is the transportation I use to get to San Jose State Universitiy's campus. I've had bad memories of missing the train or worrying about the train's time schedule changing. The lightrail has played a big part of my school commuting experience.
The acorns falling from the tree represent the minutes and will fall in groups of 10. This connects to my dog who barks every day at my oak tree at the squirrels grabbing acorns off the ground. When the minutes are up, a flock of birds will rush by with clouds of dust. This acts as a transition for the acorns to move back up into the tree.
The seconds are represented by the dog barking every second.
