Description
[|Flickr Clock] Flickr Clock is just one way to explore new and growing media in the flickr system/database. It organizes its feeds based on the time of the day in which they were entered. Totally a 24 hour period, users can view what types of these we're being posted at certain times. The way the information/data is organized in this timeline view is a similar idea that the CCCA has with its artists page having a chronological order. This is unique in that there is a wide vareity of themes/topics in all of the feeds/pictures/videos that certain things that we might not usually see together are group based on the time they were updated. Interesting Juxtapositions are created. The images are really videos. Once the user picks an image, it will load the video. Users then have the option to go next or previous as far as other images but also using the time line navigation can drag it to different times. The feeds are constantly updating, therefore this experience will be dynamic every time.

The Way it Works
Users will go to the Explore option and choose Flickr Clock. This organization system, uses user updates and feeds of video content and organizes it from the time it was posted in a chronological order. Users can use the Timeline navigation to see whats being posted and compare the content over time etc. Once users choose an image, a video will load. There is then options to see the next video as well as time controls for the video.

The time line controls allow users to drag the blue section through the 24 hour period. [|flickrclocktimeline.jpg]

Choose a video/image from the long bars that represent a different image/video. The image will preview for a few seconds before going to the video. [|flickrphoto.jpg]

Once the video is playing. There are local navigation option to go to the next or previous image. Also a time control for the video as well as orientation signified by the pink square of where you are in the global space. [|flickrvideo.jpg]

Insights

 * Content is dynamic and taken from constantly updating user feeds - Content from CCCA can be direvied from Artists updating their gallery
 * Interesting way of organizing Content based on the time they were added
 * Created juxtapositions in subjects/images
 * Could this type of organization be used with out the time - Seperate file based on Movements
 * Could 2 windows/image been show at once? - would that be confusing for the user?
 * Orientation and Navigation I thought was simple and understandable
