My watch face was inspired by the phrase ‘watch the clock’.
There are 12 eyes, each representing the hour. The hour determines which eye is opened and blinking on a two second loop. The single open eye stares where the current minute hand would be pointing on a standard analog clock. For instance, at 5:30, the last eye would be looking straight down.
I hoped that the eyes would bring the pebble to life, transform it from a smartwatch into an organism. I think I accomplished some level of this goal, though the design is still very digital and uniformly patterned. I wanted to use a frame-by-frame animation to simulate organic motion. Lastly, I chose to loop the animation to best represent time.
Upon evaluation, I feel that my clock does not make the best use of the space provided. Although the entire screen is filled with graphics, only one eye (1/12th of screen) blinks at a time.
