Posted: 05 Feb 2014 07:48 AM PST The Luna Watch is a clever design that represents the process of waxing and waning of the real moon as a way of communicating the time. What this means is that Waning to the right indicates 'AM' and waning to the left means 'PM'. You can recharge the watch via USB and access the functions menu by adjusting the crown. In all, designer ilmo Ahn wants you to own your moon. Designer: ilmo Ahn - Related posts: |
Creative Calculation With Sharpened Pencils Posted: 05 Feb 2014 03:01 AM PST Can creative output really be measured? Yes, the pencil shavings collected in the Sharpner Jar tell the story of your efforts, even if there’s nothing final to show for the time spent. This measurable “creative data” proves to colleagues, employers, friends, family, and—most importantly—yourself that work was accomplished, useful or not. Designer: Craighton Berman [ Buy it Here ] How is your boss going to know that you spent most of the day working and not just surfing the Internet? Moreover, can creative output really be measured? If we go by designer Craighton Berman's vision, then the Sharpener Jar is what you need to quantify creative output. A jar full of pencil shavings at the end of the day visually demonstrates your labor to yourself and those around you. When the jar fills to the top with pencil shavings, it can be sealed and archived for future reference. Imagine the impact of a dozen sealed jars of your efforts displayed prominently on your bookshelf! When I asked Craighton what he led him to create this ingenious jar, he said that the idea grew out of an experience teaching a design sketching class. "While critiquing a student's work it was evident there was a lot of effort, but not much result, the idea of measuring creative effort by saving pencil shavings emerged in my mind." There’s a lot of irony in the fact that creativity is being hailed as a 'business tool', when it's so inherently inefficient, unpredictable, and un-measurable! In short, the Sharpener Jar also doubles as a useful desktop accessory for any artist, designer, illustrator, writer, or regular person who wants to sharpen a pencil. - Related posts: |
