Humans, all animals really, run on an internal clock known as a circadian rhythm. Well, maybe I should say that humans SHOULD run on a circadian rhythm. A proper schedule becomes harder and harder to maintain as we work more, sleep less or just sleep at the wrong times. Since our circadian rhythm is governed mostly by the Sun, the Circadian Sleep System clock uses an array of white and blue lights to help adjust our schedule. The lights of... Continue reading

Given many of those hours were spent on the john, it still feels like a whole lot of time gone that could have been used for doing something productive, like curing cancer or threatening robotic babies or inventing the iPad. But I guess it was pretty entertaining, so I win. The Find the Time Clock uses the geeky allure of the word search to illustrate... Continue reading

Spotted over at Design Miami, this exhibit features an LCD screen with a man drawing, then erasing, then redrawing a clock for every minute, or every hour for a loop period of 12-hours. I think I might have to pay somebody’s grandfather to come do this at my home 12 hours a day. How cool would it be to have a literal grandfather clock? Get it? A grandfather clock? Link

Closer resembling a set of luscious melons (Mmm, cantaloupe,) Bubble Clox add a new dimension to your time keeping.  Being the first spherical clock I’ve ever seen means this is the coolest one of its kind by default. So it has that going for it. If it’s wrong to want to grab a pair of these and hump the air furiously, than I don’t want to be right.

We’ve seen some pretty wacky and creative clocks in our day. We’ve seen clocks made strictly out of live-human body parts. We’ve seen clocks only solvable by mathematicians. But this clock strikes a chord with us geeks, utilizing one of the most prolific parts of the web browser, the scrollbar. The coolest part is that you can actually move the scrollbar as the time ticks away. Link [via]

Let’s keep the scratchin’ going to the early morn. Yeahhhh, boooooy. Made using an old, retired Fischer turntable and a rockin’ Doobie Brothers vinyl album, the Turntable Clock WAS available on Etsy, but has since sold out. I’m guessing there was only one available in the first place, but who knows, more might pop up if you’re lucky, Link [via]

Here I am, scared out of my wits about anything too extreme for my fragile geeky body, and this poor little guy, measuring a tiny fraction of my size, bungee jumps 24 times a day. I feel ashamed. Very ashamed. The Jongchul Kim’s Bungee Jumping Clock features a little man who jumps out of his little cubby and bounces around in the air at the top of each hour. Link

Sure, it might seem real cool and artsy to have a clock ran by human beings, but think about how neat the statement of the Human Clock will be to you once the clock employees start running to their union reps because you’ve been starving them. Designed using a group of flexible time-keepers, the Human Clock is the one timepiece which will leave your house with much of your food supply depleted. But hey, good luck on that artsy statement!... Continue reading
