dailybell: SUNRISE 2/18/08

dailybell

2008 was the inaugural year in an ongoing, aspirational project dedicated to the observation of the sun every time it crosses the horizon and to sharing the awareness of that moment with others while ringing bells. It is based on the conviction that something as inarguable as the movement of the earth can be used as a point of unity and awareness among large groups of people who might otherwise find it impossible to agree.

SUNRISE 2/18/08

Guten Morgen Wolfsburg Crows

Only grey this morning. Grey sky. Grey air. Cold and wet. Under the general wash of light, it was hard to orient to any direction. So I stepped just outside the back entrance of the hotel and looked around. There must have been some kind of dump nearby, or maybe it was the canal. There were many black birds flying around together and making a lot of noise. I felt right at home. Just the birds and I making noise together. Until the workmen showed up lugging some heavy looking buckets. We performed a nice little concert for them.
