(Work In Progress)
Circadian Rythmn is an idea that began
by trying to conjure the feeling of missing home. The rythmn I have
is different in every place I live. The time I get up in New York
means a three hour shift in time zones from back home in Portland.
Seasons are different, and the sun is different. I wanted to be able
to digitize that moment of glancing into an aspect of my life I
normally can't see.
Through looking at a webcam of
Mount Hood in Oregon—the backdrop to
my childhood—I could feel a sense of connection.
By having the site function like an alarm, only working when the sun is up,
allows me and the users to embrace limitations.
