In Your Time

An exploration of temporal intimacy, In Your Time is a pendulum clock that replaces the mechanical second with the cadence of the human heart. By synchronizing the rhythm of the escapement to the individual’s pulse, the clock translates a 60-second minute into a personal duration. A day is no longer a fixed 24-hour cycle, but a fluid reflection of one’s internal pace, stretching to 36 hours in moments of intensity or resting at 24. Through this reinterpretation, time ceases to be an external metric and becomes a living remembrance that mirrors the pulse of our existence. 

《心跳鐘》是一座以心跳頻率取代標準計時方式的擺鐘。經由脈搏感測器將時間的節奏與心率同步,將制式的 60 秒轉譯為個人化的體感長度。一天不再是凝固的 24 小時循環,而是內在節奏的流動反應,在情緒激昂時可能延伸至 36 小時,而在平靜時則回歸 24 小時。透過這樣的重新詮釋,時間不再是外部的度量衡,而成為一種生命當下的流動記憶,一個映照出我們生命存在狀態的感官縮影。
