dailybell: 2/17/19 - 2/24/19

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.

More Light! Popcorn chicken

February 23, 2019. Sunset 5:56 PM.
San Francisco, CA.

The shortest month is bringing the most light to each day so far. As we plunge towards the Equinox on March 20th, our days (at this latitude) are expanding at a rate of almost 20 minutes per week. Notwithstanding the exaggerated impression of longer days that DST will bring, we will actually be living with almost an hour more sunshine on the Equinox!!
