Every day has 86,400 seconds. Claim yours.
Time Blockers is a daily capture app and art project, gamified around a simple, powerful idea: you own specific seconds of the day. When your moment arrives — down to the exact UTC second — the camera fires. Miss it, and you've missed it. Until tomorrow.
Your Blocks. Your Moments.
Each block is one UTC second (0–86,399). Buy a block and that second belongs to you, every single day. A live countdown ticks down in real time. When it hits zero, a burst of 10 images are captured, choose to save the image for your block. Your photo is logged, timestamped, and posted to the main timeline (the time piece).
Own up to 167 blocks. Go Pro and your max raises to 247.
Five Weekly Campaigns
Themed events with creative constraints and dedicated claim windows:
• Flash Friday — your moment happens in a flash
• Monochrome Monday — camera locks to black & white only
• Telephoto Tuesday — telephoto lens engaged, no switching
• Wide Angle Wednesday — ultra-wide only, full field of view
• Sunshine Sunday — get outside and shoot
The first 4,700 blocks to be claims each week are free. After that, $0.47 per block.
Thursday Drop
Every Thursday, starting at 4:47 UTC, 470 blocks release at $0.47 each. One claim per user. Drop ends at midnight — or when sold out.
