So far i’ve keep with my plan of a sketch and photo each weekend! I had to sit inside the mini mall today because seating was filled out front of Verb but on the plus side I got to dodge the humidity and watch foreigners try and figure out the photo boot! HAHA – Overall I had some good random thoughts. This beats free-writing in my eyes.

Macbeth, Act V, scene v
Macbeth, Act V, scene v
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
Sèvres Vase Clock
The Sèvres Vase Clock, a prototype by Georgios Maridakis, indicates the hour with an audible knock. Just place the vase of your choice on the brass and wood stand and the hammer will strike the vase each hour.
Each vase makes a different sound, but adding different amounts of water for different pitches and notes takes it one step further. The modern take on a grandfather clock is a subtle, unobtrusive way to indicate time—we’d add a few flowers too.
Designer Georgios Maridakis is currently finishing a stint at the Royal College of Art in London. Visit his site for more info on this and other projects.
