I'm working on a generative sound design piece where I am using a weather API to drive a granular synthesis engine.

One of the pieces of data I am trying to use is sun rise time which comes out into a message object like this: 2021-05-17T05:15:40.429458+01:00

How do I separate out the time from the rest of the message? (the section that reads '05:15:40')?

Also how would I create a calculation that would define the length of time between this sun rise time and the current time? (I've got the current time displayed throught date object)

Here's a version that uses [translate] to convert from hh:mm:ss to ms and back. This avoids errors caused by calculating with base 60 numbers.
