What is Minnow Clocks?
Minnow Clocks is a tool designed to help artists maintain self-care during long and focused creative sessions. It works like this: in customizable intervals, the site will ping you to perform quick acts of personal care while you work, like stretching or hydrating! Each task is picked randomly, and will not be picked again until all tasks have been cycled through, as to evenly distribute the frequencies of each one.
The idea for this site was inspired by fourleafisland’s art livestreams—in their streams, viewers (AKA minnows) can redeem channel points on pings that are highlighted in chat, such as “save break”, “posture check”, etc. This always helped me as I co-worked alongside their streams, so I wanted to recreate this neat system of self-care in an automated site!
and special thanks to fourleafisland for letting us use their minnow design!
