Ross Lovegrove shares organic designs

Aswell as the two previous Ted talks I have posted I was really interested in what design beauty there is in nature and my thinking that "time"is just life and life cycles,I have started looking into nature as a source of ideas and inspiration.

James Balog: Time-lapse proof of extreme ice loss

This influenced my thoughts and gave me the idea for looking at and exploring time and nature combined with the ideas and methods i gained from Stefan Sagmeisters talk.

Time and the enviroment

Ted.com Stefan Sagmeister

The most inspirational bananas ever for me.Time in nature,I used what i had learned from our limitation project and started looking at nature for inspiration. His strategies and ways of generating ideas have become very useful as a way to expand on my own strategies.

Time as a person

It seems to me that what man doesn't understand,we give a human form to.....e.g Mother earth,God(whichever),The devil,Old father time,Poseidon etc.Time seems very important to the culture and lives of man so we gave it our image

Time as a thing

Time can be bought,sold,lent,borrowed,wasted,lost,kept,wished for.
Time flies, drags,mends,stands still,heals.
Time is money.

You got time?
Out of time ("running out of time"as if its in a boundary/area)
Times up
More time
Time is a commodity



This intrigues me as I have never physically seen time or felt time and yet it is spoken of as if it is a tangible object

Time as a thing?

Time is so important to man, i feel that anything circular with multiple lines can resemble a clock/time

Time quotes

ANDY WARHOL:
They say that time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself

C. S. LEWIS:
The future is something which everyone reaches at the rate of sixty minutes an hour, whatever he does, whoever he is

ECCLESIASTES:
For everything there is a season,
And a time for every matter under heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

Whatever begins, also ends
