Qlocktwo, handmade & no numbers
[posted by Donald®]
Qlocktwo by Biegert & Funk
This is Qlocktwo, the fourth dimension squared. A clock that tells time in words. It has a quadratic matrix of letters, where some of the letters (FF Din) are illuminated. The time is displayed as text in five minute intervals. If you need to have a more exact time, look in the corner at the illuminated dots. Qlocktwo has a brightness sensor; with its help the illuminating power of the letters is automatically adjusted.

‘Flames’ is about big concepts. Love, life and eternity

Flames by Seb Lester
Seb has drawn on powerful symbolism and our rich calligraphic heritage to create this stunning print. The Phoenix that is the figurehead in this print is a mythological fire bird that has come to symbolize eternity in the West. Similarly the circles and stars depicted have been symbols of eternity in a diverse range of cultures for thousands of years.
“The aim here was to try to create a dynamic, majestic, and hopefully beautiful piece of ‘type art’ that truly stands the test of time. I don’t know whether I’ve achieved that, but I’m really proud of ‘Flames’.”- Seb
