In general people experience their present naively,

as it were, without being able to form an estimate of its contents; 

they have first to put themselves at a distance from it - the present, 

that is to say, must have become the past - 

before it can yield points of vantage from which to judge the future

One day, someone showed me a glass of water

 that was half full.  

And he said, 

"Is it half full or half empty?"  

So I drank the water. 

No more problem

Design and Technology '08

DnT  artifact is finally completed!! ... well almost.

its a 24 hour sundial

how is that possible, you ask? 

well the sundial works by using the sun's light

to cast shadows against a flat ground to indicate

the movement of the sun, hence the time of  day.

well by removing the "sun" factor, and put inside 

specially fabricated light bulbs (made by yours truly),

they take over the sun's job of casting the shadow. 

thus with out an option of the light bulb setting over the

horizon at dusk, it now can work for well...

 24/7

without overtime pay and 

contributing to CPF.

concept as to how it works, 

an internal motor turns the wooden dowel,

which is connected to the top piece with the bulbs, 

thus turning the light in a circular motion ;

ever casting a shadow on the numbered 

surface of the bottom piece.

if the lack of number on the sundial clock surface

seems odd to you... don't worry, i might just it on soon...

but mainly for now... its folio time!!
