CUBOCTAHEDRON POMODORO RETHINKING THE GEOMETRY OF FOCUS
Pomodoro on the phone is a way of setting timer for homework and rest during my high school life. The Cuboctahedron Pomodoro is well-suited for students who are not allowed to use their phone during homework. It sets and shows time of the timer only with a cuboctahedron and lights. The core functionality of the Cuboctahedron Pomodoro is using it as a timer for work and rest. Cuboctahedron is a symmetrical geometry representing the bi-mode states of this pomodoro with its 6 identical squares and 8 identical triangles. The larger square surface down sets a 25min clock for work. The smaller triangle surface down sets a 5min clock for rest. In the testing, I use the 20s as a substitution for 25min clock and 10s as a substitution for 5min clock.
