Form, meet function. See your exact age — in binary. The perfect birthday treat for anyone with appreciation for the geeky side of design, this indispensable little thing will always be there to answer the most burning question of all — how old am I, right now? — by providing a captivating play of lights which speaks to you in binary, the most basic language of information.
