Julien Bayle.net talks about visual design and more. He works on social network visualizations, generative art and data visualizations.
He has had some of his social network visualisations published on visual complexity.com.
His dynamic clock to visualise time is simple and innovative. Rather than just static numbers around a circle and handles, he uses space (area) in circles to represent the amount of time elapsed in seconds (dark blue), minutes (white) & hours (light blue).
A great alternative perspective to time rather than the usual. Certainly making the familiar strange through a conflict that needs to be interpreted.
