This work is a clock that displays time as a percentage of the passing day. A wire from an LED display is connected to a solar cell or light sensor on the top of the building, which measures the light from the sun. The results are passed to custom electronics where the day/night durations are used to phase the work to the rhythms of the sun. Beginning at 00.000 at sunrise, the five-digit display shows the percentage of daylight already spent, reaching 99.999 at sunset. Then it begins again, counting upward into the night toward the dawn, reading 99.999 percent at sunrise.
