The Nixie tube was developed in 1962 as the precursor to the computer monitor. The name stands for Numerical Indicator eXperimental NIX-1.

"Nixie tubes are marvels of high precision technology and jewels in themselves." Charmed by their beauty, Peter van der Jagt designed a clock in 1996 as part of his final project at the Art Academy of Arnharn that, thanks to modern electronics, is many times smaller than a clock from the Nixie age would have been.
