VIDEO

A Year of Days

The idea was this: take a photo every 10 seconds for a year and create a stop-motion video. But rather than string them together end to end (which would not only be unwatchably long, but would do little to reveal the changes that occur over longer periods of time), San Francisco “tinkerer” Ken Murphy set up a 360 square grid of videos, with each square playing one day’s worth of video. Since the videos are synced, you begin to see changes occur across the clearly visible seasons: the sun fades in, gradually filling the squares linearly and clouds gather and disperse (and occasionally rain). An ambient sounds ties the whole thing together into a moody reflection on the changes cycles that we all live within.
