A clock powered by the differences in barometric pressure. This one is owned by a friend of mine and was made in 1947. Fantastic.
This photograph of the clock was taken on one of the cannon cameras. The photograph is apart of the shutter speed challenge from Photography One.The photograph was edited by adjusting the levels, cropping the image, and the photograph was taken at a 2 second shutter speed. Additionally, the photograph was enhanced by Burns. The reason why this is one of the better one of my photographs is that I enjoy the high metallic shin against the cool toned white wall, I also enjoy the "wave-like" shutter speed of the seconds hand, and I enjoy the enhancement of the hands on the clock through editing.

Back in the breaker box, The Energy Detective takes power readings and transmits them over the mains. In the clock, an analog filter/amplifier isolates these RF signals from the incoming AC power. An AVR microcontroller does further filtering, decodes the packets, and generates clock ticks.

Margate's Jubilee Clock Tower was built to commemorate Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee in 1887, although not completed until 1889. It had a Time Ball mechanism, mounted on a mast atop the tower, which was raised a few minutes before 1 pm each day and dropped at precisely 1 pm, thereby allowing residents, visitors and ships to know the exact time. This was, of course, in the days before wireless transmission of time signals. The Time Ball fell out of use many years ago, but following a suggestion by Arnold Schwartzman OBE RDI, a former Margate resident, Margate Civic Society raised funds to have the Time Ball repaired and brought back into use. This was successful, and a civic ceremony celebrated the restoration on 24 May 2014, Queen Victoria's birthday and the 125th anniversary of the Clock Tower's official opening. The Time Ball now drops at 1 pm each day and is one of only a handful of working time balls in the world. Photograph by Pamela Vallance. July 21st 2020.

Mainspring grease for the spring that drives the calendar mechanism. It winds and unwinds at roughly the same rate over time — it is used mainly to drive the calendar through multiple dates at the end of every month.
After a new lick of BLUE and gold paint. It was last painted in 1991 ish but this "time" it's 'stourbridge' blue.
For those of you that were contacts on my other account before I deleted it, you know I opposed Videos on Flickr; however, ...
Maybe there is a place for it if it is kept artistic. This isn't artistic mind you, this is practice.
I am trying a little time-lapse photography. This is sorta photography... right? I just linked them all together. :) Please excuse the lighting, I am testing.
Anyway, this is a 27 second video comprised of 163 frames of "photography." The subject isn't interesting at all, but hopefully the technique works. I hope to do something with a landscape and sky when I get it figured out. Enjoy.
Comment to let me know what to change (or keep) to make this better. Framing was 6 per second.
Thanks.

I 3d printed a fully mechanical clock on my DIY 3d printer. Got it working this evening. :) I learnt a lot, but now to make it better!

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.
