Anaphoric Clock in Kansas City, MO
Judging from the images of the Web site URLed below,
the "clock" is a beautiful merging of art, nature, and
science. I would love to see this in other areas around
the world. I am sure it would inspire people to look up.
To quote from the Web site:
The centerpiece of the park is an interactive sculpture based on the anaphoric clock, a model of the sky with roots deep in antiquity. The anaphoric star disk in the park is very likely the largest and most accurate astronomical machine of this type ever made.
This discussion concentrates on the anaphoric star disk. The other aspects of the park, which are lovely and quite interesting, will be described in a forthcoming web site.
