EDM Challenge #61: Collection


Accompanying entry: "Clocks, to me, represent the inevitable. Everyday, every single second, a little bit of time slips away and there's nothing we can do about it. They just sit there, those clocks, silently ticking away. Yea, it's kinda morbid, but it's also a constant reminder to spend what precious time we're given wisely... I've noticed that clocks are such slave-drivers. When the hour hand points to a certain number and the minute hand points to another certain number, we automatically go to work, or turn on the TV for our favorite show, or get ready for bed... We seem to be in a constant battle with time. There never seems to be enough of it. Or we're always fighting to stay ahead of it. Funny how we usually end up playing catch-up... Time is just such a cool phenomenon. I don't really want it to control me nor do I want to fight with it. I wonder what it'd be like if no clocks existed. Would my orderly self automatically know when to do what? Or would I find myself with, well, a lot of time on my hand?

Welcome to the group! Since you live in Southern Calif you need to try and go with our next sketchcrawl group and draw. I think we might go to the zoo, then to San Jaun Capistrano in June. Keep up the good work.
