Its '186 M' O'Clock
I like the idea of telling the time of day using colour.
The colour of the sky changes over the day, so what if we had to rely on this to tell the time?
I want it to work as an alternative reliable way of telling time.
Perhaps it might incorporate the changing shades of the sky, so it could be used as a self -education tool. From reading this 'clock' I would eventually be able to read the sky.
If not, it sure looks purdy.

Now That's What I Call Cooking (Vol. 1)
I have begun looking into the idea of using other methods or objects as time keeping devices.
The most successful and certainly most interesting has been the concept and model for a CD that you can cook along to. It includes a CD of 6 (loosely) food related tracks and a recipe that involves using specific points within the soundtrack as a gauge of timings.
FOR EXAMPLE, one step reads; "Start slicing the red onion as the first chorus of Fat Children opens..."
This was to examine whether I would be comfortable using an unofficial method of timing whilst undergoing a task where timings are quite important. I was not.
I definitely intend to develop this object further, maybe give it to a couple of friends/colleagues to try out. Here are a couple of images from my... experience. (They are a bit blurry because as soon as the CD started I became flustered and manic).
