What’s next

What would you like Clock of Ages to do next? A toy for an hour that hasn’t got one, a timekeeper it’s missing, something that’s hard to use: every suggestion is read.

Ideas so far

Some things the clock could do one day. They’re ideas, not promises.

• Birth clocks. Enter a birthday and see the clock of clocks for its age, every hour showing that moment its own way.
• A family clock. Up to twelve people on one dial, each hour one person’s birth moment on a timekeeper of their own age.
• More toys. Twenty-two of the 168 hours can be played with so far. There’s a real gesture waiting in many of the others.
• Desk clock. Full screen with nothing else on it, for a spare tablet or a second monitor.
• Past Five Clocks. Play any earlier day’s puzzle.
• A sound for each floor. Drips and bells in the oldest ages, ticking in the age of precision, the quiet click of quartz now.
• History o’clock. At 18:12, something from the year 1812.
• Meshing gears. The twelve hours drawn as gears that turn one another.
• For classrooms. Printable sheets on telling time and the history of measuring it.
