dailybell: Cross species siblings

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.

Cross species siblings

May 3, 2022. Sunset 8:02 PM. San Francisco, CA.

There's a long story in this photo. These neighbors have been involved with the sunset bellringing since we began more than 15 years ago. Henry was 3 years old. This evening he was telling us how his dog (you can see her little tail there) runs to the door every night when she hears the bell. He could have been talking about his younger self. We would see him plastered to the window across the street, all excited, usually in his pajamas. History repeating itself. Thank you Matt for your reliable presence and company here for all these years.
