EllaneAnd now, a visual representation of a circular definition
Jérôme Gx@jrmgx I confess to screenshotting it from Facebook where it was posted without credit. To purgatory I go!
@ellane haha no I just wanted to check the artist and see if they have other fun piece like that.
foldworks@jrmgx @ellane The designer Ji Lee wrote "When I was a graphic design student many years ago, I had a class project to design a clock. ... I had the most obvious idea and designed this Redundant Clock. ... I found out that someone liked the clock so much, he made one and posted it on Reddit. The post was so popular, it became the number one post" https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1859831505/redundant-clock

@jrmgx @ellane The AI Overview (not asked for) for the reverse image search was almost entirely inaccurate:
"The image shows a minimalist wall clock where standard hour markers are replaced with a single character or symbol repeated in different orientations.
• The symbol at each hour position appears to be the letter "L" or the number "1".
• The hands indicate the time is exactly 9:00.
• The clock has a simple, modern design with a white face and a metallic rim.
• The text "L 1 レー L" is visible in the top left quadrant of the clock face."
@foldworks Thank you for yet another reason why it's a bad idea to put AI in charge of …anything! "Oh, you can't see the nuances of a clever but redundant clock? Here, sit in front of this big red button instead but don't press it, please, unless a group of very trustworthy and competent humans tell you to"
