description:
The familiar form of a coffee cup is taken through a series of
transformations, generating a graphic representation of elapsed time.
The circular shape of the cup first shifts into an ellipse, and then
stretches into a line. The volume of the cup changes while the profile
remains the same. Like a movie in three frames, this set simulates the
action of time “pressing in” on a form. This transformation makes the
user more aware of the importance of small events in the scheme of a
larger story.
