" Paging [FarmerJohn] to the white courtesy phone ... " |
|

There was a screensaver that had a continuously-changing
clock face that updated each second awhile ago. I don't
remember how many clocks it scrolled through, it wasn't
that many, maybe 10. |
|

It's like, ironic 'n like, philosophical 'n stuff. |
|
| |
No brainer for a group effort web page too. People
just send upload pictures of their broken watches
to the slot currently available. The screen changes
every second to another picture of a watch
illustrating that time. Then offer an app that puts
the scrolling clock pictures in the corner of your
screen. |

Highlights the not inconsiderable irony that a stopped (or broken) analog clock is actually more useful than one that is inaccurate, as a stopped clock is always exactly right twice a day. |
|
| |
You just don't know when. |
|
| |
Unless, that is, you've got the time written down on a piece of paper ... |
|
| |
Now wait a clock unticking minute! |
|
| |
The array of broken clocks should be mounted on a stack of rotating wheels, which move behind a viewing window. |
|
| |
With only a small increase in the number of watches -
to 1,339,200 watches - you could use watches that
show the date as well as the time. |

+ (I love saying Clock Clock) |

Depending on the faces, the required number could be
reduced by inversion and reflection. |
|
| |
Not necessarily, if the "12" position is explicitly indicated. If only "12" is denoted then mirroring will work, but not inversion. If positions other than "12" are also marked numerically, then mirroring won't work either. |
