dailybell: 9/23/12 - 9/30/12

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.

EQUILUX!!!

Sunrise and Sunset 7:01 AM/PM.
Ocean Beach, San Francisco.

OK. So here it is. Equal day and night. I thought it would be nice to record the sunrise and sunset at the beach. Like I did in for the Spring Equilux, I again pictured a slow pan from east to west, cross fading half way through the pan as it changed from sunrise to sunset. Unfortunately, I wasn’t awake enough this morning to operate the camera properly, and I apologize to Audrey for dragging her out of bed to come ring the bell with me at the beach. I meant it when I said “Good job, Audrey!” although none of you will actually witness the moment of sunrise. Sunset was a different matter and I hope you enjoy it- equally foggy and non-sun event that it was.
