why do you need a belt at all? don't get it. |
|
| |
The belt has numbers on it. The digits of digitized time. Clock Belt. |
|

Ticking away at the moments that make up a dull day? Fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way? Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town? Looking for some-one or something to show you the way? Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain?....Thought you'd something more to say?
I think rcarty is implying *we* are *our* measure of time, bun for that. |
|
| |
I doubt you could show 10:45 for more than 30 seconds without getting tired. |
|
| |
When did you dislocate your shoulder?
10:45 |
|
| |
if the belt has the clock on it, why do you have to hold your hands up? |
|
| |
Melodramatic actor: Oh, what does this mean?
Audience: 10:45! |
|
| |
Oh my God! Is it 12h30 already? |
|
| |
No, I've got thong creep. |
|
| |
The word "digits" confuses me. I would expect the belt to somehow project numbers next to the wearer - e.g., an XII above their head - but that would be very unwieldy. Is that what you intended? Or are the numbers involved just a parallel digital display? (Parallel apparel?) |
|
| |
I think the purpose of the belt is to alert others that the person wearing it is fact a timepiece, and not merely insane. |
|
| |
It's almost 6:30 and both my arms won't align down... |
|
| |
I bet an amputee could pull this one off pretty dang well. |
|
| |
Adding a second hand would be a
challenge. |
|
| |
to really be useful, the clock would need to center around the chest, not the belt. arms don't rotate at that angle. |
|
| |
what am i talking about, "to really be useful?" there's nothing useful about this clock! |
|
| |
Is it ten of six already? Or are you just happy to see me? |
|
| |
The numbers on the belt are for reference, however the arms are pointed outwards, parallel to the ground. The right arm serves as the hour hand for numbers on the right side and the left arm for minutes on the right side and vice-versa |
|
| |
if the left and right hands alternate to show minute and hour on their respective halves, then you will never know when it is actually 9:15 or 3:45. |
|
| |
Unless one bent ones elbow. |
|
| |
wouldn't you *have* to bend your elbows if your "Center" was to be anywhere near your belt line? unless you're steve urkel. see [link]. |
|
| |
On every clock I've seen the numbers have been substantially below the hands. [link] |
|
| |
Our clock like nature is undeniable. Sorry. |
|
| |
After time has passed.......I think this is really halfbaked and I would be handing you a timely bun, but my arms are busy. (kicks croissant in your direction)---------+ |
