Developer’s Description

By Protein Mainframe

See color as a metaphor for time.

Protein Chromo is a patent-pending colour clock technology that was conceived by Protein Mainframe in March 2000. The purpose of Protein Chromo is to create a new metaphor for time as well as serving as an attractive illumination device for modern living. The design of Protein Chromo was inspired by on-going research into creating future communication systems that transcend technology, culture and geographical domains. In addition to providing an ultimately simple indicator for time, Protein Chromo also raises the more profound question of the effects of colour and time on the human body.

Summary
Obviously those who have reviewed this before gave it unfairly bad ratings because they didn't understand it. This clock is based on colors, assigning different times of the day to different parts of the spectrum. It changes very slowly, with red being noon and blue-green being midnight. To understand how it works and why they chose the colors they did, go to their website. As for features, It really has all it needs, although more would be useful. It defaults to a small square with the Chromo logo in the center, which you can resize or set to fullscreen. Other than that, you can exit, and set it to run at startup. It's a very cool idea, and has been well implemented. I look forward to a more full-featured version!

as soon as i turned the thing on all i got was a square of orange with a bunch of little bitty different colors in a smaller square inside the orange one. i thought this was supposed to be some sort of clock. the readme file does nothing except tell you that you can right click on it and set the size of the square and to double click anywhere on the square to go to the webpage. frankly, if this IS a metaphor for time it's simply saying that time stands still at orange. i'm a very intelligent person but i do not get this "metaphor" for time. only download if you are looking to download every single fine www.download.com has. otherwise, it's a TOTAL waste of time and energy. it's nothing more than a picture that you can click on.
