_SunClock

This is a lamp that follows the light of the sun. The light bulb (electricity) is programmed to follow the sun. When the sun rises in the morning the lamp starts to omit light, intensifying every second, shining brightest in middle of the day. After this the light begins to fade with the sun, appearing dimmest at sunset. You can`t see the light changing beacuse it omnit light in a very slow movement, but it changes all the time as the sun moves in the sky. A digital sun.

(Computer version)

A yellow field moving at a computer screen. It reflects the suns movements in the sky and the movement can hardly be seen, but it s moving all the time. When the sun rises a yellow field starts to move, first the field can hardly be seen but the more the sun moves the more you can see of the yellow field. At the middle of the day the whole field can be seen and the whole screen are yellow. It could be seen as a slowly moving painting.
When the sun goes down the yellow field disappear. You can follow the sun live when it’s moving over your area/city. A digital Sun.

This project are coded specific for a geoghrapical location. I code the piece for the site/location where its shown. This piece has been shown in different places in Sweden, Canada, Scotland and Finland. So far there is nine versions of the program for nine different geographical locations and I intends to continue to produce new ones.
