A clock that erases your schedule

The Trace of Time clock is a fun concept design by Il-Gu Cha.

The clock is of an interesting design, made of stainless steel with a glass face. What makes it unique is that the user can write on it with a marker. You would think that you can also do it on a normal clock...but you would have to erase it yourself. In this case, the Trace of Time clock has a hand with an integrated eraser that will wipe away the appointment after it is over.

This is a 24-hour clock with one hand. I would imagine if you started your day filling out your appointments, you could watch all of them slowly vanish as you go throughout the day. Make sure you dont miss or forget any appointments as it erases as the time passes.
