Alfred Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I’m not sure I see the connection. Sophie Taeuber-Arp’s work reminds me of the art of Wassily Kandinsky, but the image in the OP to this thread looks like a simple example of barch art.

Well, I had not known of Wassily Kandinsky, nor of barch art before I read your post. So, now I know more than when I started this thread. Good. Thank you.

William Overington Posted January 7, 2022 Author Share Posted January 7, 2022 If one looks in the video at 1 minute 58 seconds, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jKnqBa15JA there is a image for inspration and leads me to have a look in detail at particular tool in Affinity Designer, with the help feature of Affnity designer to give me guidance. So not trying to produce a copy of that image, but an image inspired by it. Anyone else fancy having a go please?

In which case, decide how much “lead up” you want to include and then adjust the time parameter accordingly.

William Overington Posted January 8, 2022 Author Share Posted January 8, 2022 I used the circle tool and the segment tool to produce my design. If I say it has the title Summer time does that make a difference? William Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Overington Posted January 8, 2022 Author Share Posted January 8, 2022 No. The idea was that the lie is angled at 30 degrees so pointng at 1 o'clock if it were a clockface, which is noon duting summer time, yet only actually on a boundary of a time zone. For example, in the parts of the United Kingdom thar are west of Greenwich the sun is at its highest some minutes after 1 pm by the clock. By about 1 minute for each 12 miles west of Greenwich I think. Sort of longitude value west of Greenwich in degrees divided by 15 degrees is the number of minutes. I was thinking of an equation something like the sign of the rate of change of the height in the sky of the sun with time as the height of the sun in the sky increases before noon and decreases after noon, but it won't work as it would need a 24 hour clock,though I suppose that some sort of limaçon-type design with counterchanged colours might work with an ordinary clock. I suppose that I am going to try to make that work! 😀 One thing designing it with pen and pasper, quite another producing it as a graphic.

William Overington Posted January 8, 2022 Author Share Posted January 8, 2022 After posting that I tried designing it with a pen and paper and it works! Producing a graphic in Affinity Designer is going to be a challenge, I suppose it depends whether it needs to be meticulously drawn or whether some combination of the facilities of Affinity Designer can get it to be produced fairly straightforwardly.
