MAKIN' TIME Computer Clocks are individually handcrafted timepieces. Many of these one-of-a-kind clocks incorporate a CD or computer hard drive platter as the clock face on a background of an embellished circuit board. Other models are crafted from floppy disks or main frame disk platters. Each clock offers an original view of our rapidly changing technology, preserving it as functional art rather than landfill. In addition to their functionality, they help contribute to the overall recycling effort by using obsolete, discarded or surplus computer components.
The first clock was created in 1995 as a going away gift for a retiring chief engineer at a video production studio where my co-originator was working. After rave reviews, additional requests and testing the market, MAKIN' TIME COMPUTER CLOCKS was formed. We enjoy bouncing ideas off each other as the work changes and develops.
Cynthia has maintained a lifelong appreciation for American handmade crafts. With a Masters in Health/Fitness Management, she has worked in a variety of settings ranging from Olympic event planning to corporate computer sales Apparently all of this along with the recycling efforts of her artwork and desire to “repair the world” in small ways every day also led her to be a kidney donor and now volunteers whenever possible with kidney awareness events.
Both artists have had national exposure and participate in several retail art shows yearly to enjoy the direct face-to-face meeting with customers and admirers of the work. It is in those very brief moments that she has the opportunity to share her excitement and enthusiasm of the ongoing process and get feedback. Some have been customized for several businesses, employee appreciation and client gifts.
