Graphics
The Phoenix Project logo symbolizes the investigation of variation in blood pressure. It is a composite of three images:
The tracings are drawn along two different timescales.
- The interior of a human heart and some of the blood vessels,
- An abstract electrocardiogram (ECG) tracing in red, and
- An abstract week-long systolic blood pressure cycle in blue.
The heart-image is Microsoft clip-art. The abstract tracings were drawn, and the entire logo composed, by the Halberg Chronobiology Center.
