a riff on the 256-day calendar
There’s a new page regarding the Scintillating Year.
Unlike the fixed 256-day calendar, which does not apply to the Leap Day, the Scintillating 256-day calendar does. This means that every 4 years, the colours of the days of the year shift by 1, which also effects the glyphs of the 260-day calendar.
Did you know that time can be represented as a wave simply by adding colours to your calendar?
Me neither.
The colours in question are colours associated with the four cardinal directions. There are any number of cultural traditions with respect to which colour is associated with which direction, and so I decided to create something anew, rather than appropriate an existing set of colours.
I applied the four colours to the time-schematic illustration below:
