Ideas for my visual clock:

1. I was thinking of using emoji-esque visuals to describe different times of the day. For lunchtime, I would draw a mini cowboy with his gun drawn and a cowboy hat on, because it would be high noon at that time. Then, at 2 am, would be a college student fueled by coffee and tormented by his or her own baggy eyes. I would use a solid color as the background for different times of the day, using specific colors for specific moods of the day.
2. I was interested by pixel art, specifically the use of smaller boxes of color to create an idea of a moving wave of color. I was interested in creating a “canvas” of sorts that changes color based on the time of day and also creates an outline of the actual time in a numerical format.
3. I’ve always been interested in the show “24”, which showcases a full day in a counterterrorism agent’s work. The show has intervals of the clock counting down from 24 hours, creating a theme of tenseness and drama. I want to somewhat incorporate that design into my virtual clock.
