On Time

On Time is designed to demonstrate how language-based creative thinking and image-based creative thinking use completely different pathways in the brain.

By following the flow of ideas through your brain, you sense that there is a clear separation between the concept of a Lizard being placed on time in an image, and the language-based concept of a Lizard being on-time for a critical event. The visual and the verbal are take you in different directions - to two distinct creative places in thought and imagination.
