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,

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.

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.

What is Flash Lite?
Flash Lite is the Flash technology specifically developed for mobile
phones and consumer electronics. Flash Lite dramatically accelerates
the delivery of rich content and browsing, as well as customized user
interfaces. Designers and developers now have access to a new level of
expressions, efficiency and interactivity for content creation.
Flash Lite has experienced and explosive adaptation by ORMs, operators
and developers in Japan and Asia, and is quickly growing worldwide. This
growth is driven by the mature Flash authoring enviroment and rendering
engine that delivers enhanced content and browsing, customized UI and
a rich mobile experience on a multitude of devices.
Downloads.
There are two different versions of the Sun Clock for mobile phones.
The recommended version is the one that allows for fullscreen use (named
Mobile Version 1). Because not all mobile phones support this function,
there is also a
second version
that does not use fullscreen mode, which you can try if the first version
doesn't work on your model. Save the file below and upload it to your
phone (zip-file).
