Challenge: Personal Context

We all have our daily routines. I wake up around 7:15, start work at 8, walk outside to get lunch around 12:30. For most people there’s a period in the morning and early evening when you’re coming and going from your home on the way to work. These moments bracket out experiences with time. We think about the day split into these chunks. Did something happen during the work day (roughly 8-5), or was it in the evening (roughly 5-8), or was it at night (9-12)? I think it’s safe to say that most people have a common notion of what morning, afternoon, evening, and night mean (even if those definitions vary a bit person to person). And each of us makes a mental organization of those time periods based on our own habits. When visualizing hourly trends I want to give people something they can relate to in the context of their daily schedules. 

These issues aren’t easy to solve
