New approach to the S2 clock project in evidence here.
So far the brief/analysis/specification pages are produced in much the same way as ever. The radical shift is in the generation of ideas approach. Here we borrowed an idea outlined in Kurt Rowland's 1968 book "The Shapes We Need". Amongst other things Rowland explores spatial relationships and really gets to the heart of aesthetics and visual beauty. Some things just look right and others don't. Why is this? Rowland seems to have a some good theories about this. This book was part of a series he released in the late 60's. I understand these textbooks were standard issue in Glasgow Secondary Schools Art Departments at the time. I don't know of any art teachers that used them much apart from my mother. Anyway this little card based exercise suited our purposes perfectly.
The current S2 course has seeen alot of changes over the last five years. We'll distribute the cours notes on the S2 Course page at: designandtechnologydepartment.co.uk in due course.

I am happy to converse with like minded souls on any subject but I do not give out Serial numbers for any Clocks on my site, if you ask I will not reply.
Here is a neat clock located near the castle that uses Chinese numbers rather than arabic. Though Chinese numbers are common enough to see in Japan, I don't see them used on clocks very often.

After an earlier shower, the puddle provided a nice reflection of the clock at the entrance of Bang Sue Grand Station

Clock in Inokashira Park in Kichijoji, Misashino City, Tokyo. The clock is adjacent to a concession stand on the north side of the pond.
This clock, which I purchased from a local flea-market years ago, chimes every once-in-a-while - EVEN THOUGH IT HASN'T BEEN WOUND!!
The Town Clock is down the hill from the Halifax Citadel, and is one of the symbols of the city. For a long time, a family lived there and had responsibility for maintaining the clock. It still uses its original mechanism, but it was off by several minutes when I was there.
See the February 2011 issue of PolymerCAFÉ for instructions on making this clock. My blog post gives additional info on finding the supplies.
