Two · Inside you

Your body clock.

Nineteen windows in your day, computed from the light you actually get where you are — when to sit in the light, when the last coffee is, when to sleep, and when to take care.

What we measure

Nineteen windows.

Each window is a number with the model it came from named. Four groups: the clock itself, sleep and alertness, sun and the seasons, travel and work — and one contested window, shown with both sides on the table.

Live today

Lived by, daily.

Each one reads the light your place actually gets, so the windows move when you do.

Set to order

Reports and plans.

The body clock is printed to the case in front of it, not to a rack of fixed titles. Name the route and we set a jet-lag plan for it; name the ward or the crew and we set the rotation; name a latitude and we set the year in light. Each is computed for those exact people in that exact place, then typeset and delivered print-ready.

A Year of Daylight: the length of the day through a year at one latitude, with the solstices, the equinoxes and the civil twilight band marked
A year in light — the third of the three, as it prints. The length of every day at one latitude, the twilight either side of it, and the solstices and equinoxes marked where they fall. The longest day, the shortest day and the swing between them are given as measured figures at the foot. Name a different latitude and the whole curve is recomputed for it.

Ask for a plan

Build with it

Nineteen windows, in your own code.

The full set of body-clock windows against the real sun at your caller’s latitude: sleep and wake, caffeine, light-shift, melatonin timing, alertness peaks, UV dose and vitamin D, jet lag and shift strain. Each returned as a number, with the published model it came from named alongside it.

Want it wired into a rota, a scheduler or an app you already run, or built into software of your own? Ask for that instead. And if you have looked at this and concluded it could not be done, bring it here and let us give it a second thought.
