dailybell: 9/16/18 - 9/23/18

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.

Crossing the light line

September 22, 2018. Sunset 6:55 PM.
East River, NY.
Happy Equinox. Time to hunker down.

What an opportunity! The final ferry to leave Governor’s Island coincided with the Equinox sunset. Many thanks to Carol Parkinson and Harvestworks for sponsoring this evening’s celebration. It was soooooo lovely.
Thanks to all the bell ringers! And special thanks to everyone who distributed bells and invited passengers to participate: Lele Buonerba, Mary Buchen, Benjamin Buford, Penelope Coe, Georgina Lewis, Maria Mykolenko and Gabe Shalom. Let’s do it again next year!
