Candour Clock Mobile — Callum Cooper

Final year degree show project, an alarm clock that aims to be transparent through form instead of material.

24 holes in the dial represent each hour of the day, rotating once daily. A contactor is pushed through the corresponding hour hole. When the red wires line up the alarm sounds.

Inspired by watching my father set up a new phone and set an alarm for one minutes time, checking it would go off. This sparked questions around digital interfaces, voting machines, axes, trust, and more everyday moments of “machine betrayal” explored in my dissertation.
