Untitled (For The Sun) - This project presents a new way of viewing time. An electronic display, whose numbers vary from 0.000 to 99.999, counts the percentage of the day that has passed, recieving this information from a light sensor at the top of a building. The most interesting aspect of this piece is that, depending on the time of the year, "time" will run differently, because the work "displays 'sun time' and not 'clock time'."
