googly eyeball clock: it’s eye time.

February 22nd, 2009 comments stumble it! digg it! by: technabob

Here’s a fun way to keep track of time. Designer Mike Mak’s Eyeclock tells time with a pair of slowly rotating disks that look like cartoon eyeballs.

The position of the left eyeball signifies hours, while the right one is minutes. Depending on the time of day, the eyes might be looking up (like at high noon), down (6:30), right (9:45) or left (3:15). The wackiest times of day are probably 3:45 and 6:00, although 3:50 is a pretty goofy time too:

The only thing missing from the clock is a couple of bubble-shaped plastic domes over each of the eyeballs. Speaking of googly eyes, I think this clock would be perfect for this guy…
