Once again we have to go through the half-yearly rigmarole of re-setting the clocks. I wish we would have just one time throughout the year. Back in the early seventies this was tried with British Standard Time - which was one hour ahead of GMT. The problem was that winter mornings were pretty dark, especially in the north of Scotland. However, overall road casualties were reduced as the lighter evenings were safer.
Like most people I have so many clocks around the house now - some of which set themselves - and while this one (quaint isn't it) is effected by turning a little wheel inside, others, like the 'phone, require me to find and follow a series of rather complex instructions.
Bought a programmed micro from www.clock-it.net/led_clocks/index.html and made up circuit board to hold the surface mount LED's.
This is a longer exposure, so quite a few of the LED's have lit up.
Update: check out the new clocks, with a manufactured board!

This image depicts my alarm clock in my room and was taken at a time of 4:30 am, as shown on the clock. The context of this photo is that I was up late at night because I couldn't sleep, and it captures my overall desire for more sleep in my life.
This relates to my identity because as a college student, I am usually up late doing homework or studying for exams. I also struggle with sleep issues and falling asleep, which couples my desire for more sleep with my desire to be able to fall asleep earlier in general. In addition, I chose this particular alarm clock because of its features and also its aesthetic. Because I tend to not get enough sleep (again, showing my desire for sleep) I also tend to have a hard time waking up in the morning. This alarm clock came with a device that you can put in your pillow that vibrates to wake you up if you are a deep sleeper like me who sometimes sleeps through their alarms. Aesthetically, it fits the overall grayscale color scheme of my room which is very minimalist with white furniture. Even though one of my desires is more sleep which is symbolized with this alarm clock, the specific alarm clock I chose was a result of advertisers manipulating my desire to lead me to buy the one that had extra features and went with my room.
