I'm getting a hour-glass.

Much better than a regular timer when you're doing the "Pomodoro" method and have to get something done. But I also have a nice lava-lamp, which is great when you're listening to music. And a record-player for vinyl CDs. And fidget toys for my ADHD and Autism (to stim while I'm doing something).

I'll be honest: I need eitiher:

Portability

Analog

If I can't carry it or if it's not mechanical, the i don't care.

Honestly, photography is underrated.

It makes history and is the prime tool of cinematography in film.

In some ways, the visual sight informs all other media in general, how we look at things in our minds, and even literature when you consider how the mind's eye looks at things.

Very intriguing sphere of interest.
