The Digital Date Clock as a Universal Date Format
Proposes the adoption of the digital date clock as a universal format for recording dates - using yyyy.mm.dd - eg 1998.12.20 - format that eliminates ambiguity and cultural variation in recording dates, uses characters compatible with prevailing standards for file names, exhibits the properties of an ordinal number and as a result promotes orderliness, and is not only fully year 2000 compliant but can also be used as a public awareness learning mechanism in preparing for the millennium bug / crisis / bomb - Y2K.

Birth of the Rainbow Cubic Sine Waves
An exploration in connections between the Light and Colour Cubes and the colours of the rainbow, Rainbow Cubic Sine Waves represents a mapping of the colurs of the cubes onto a sine wave, in which the cycle of colours seems to evoke the colour sequence of the rainbow. The development of the Rainbow Cubic Sine Wave took place over two days very shortly on the birth of the Cubic Colour Wheel, reflecting an openness to softening the sharp edges of the Cubes, as well as to focus attention on some of the rhythmic and cyclical properties of the cubes.
