Clocks created from recycled/obsolete computer components
Cynthia maintains the primary studio in Maryland since the business began in 1995. Individually handcrafted high tech timepieces. Most one-of-a-kind clocks incorporate a hard drive platter or a CD as the clock face and an embellished circuit board as the background. Other models are crafted from CDs, floppy disks, drive housings, video laser disks or main frame drive platters. Each clock offers a whimsical view of our rapidly changing technology, preserving it as art rather than landfill. In addition to their functionality they help contribute to the overall recycling effort by utilizing obsolete, discarded or surplus computer components.
The clocks require no software installation and only need rebooting with a "AA" battery about once a year. Currently they are available in many galleries/shops across the country. MAKIN’ TIME clocks also have been customized for several businesses, employee appreciation and client gifts.
