This project was a part of Midnight Moment, a monthly presentation by The Times Square Advertising Coalition (TSAC) and Times Square Arts.Mountain Light/Time was an animated GIF collage of a speedy sunrise over mountaintops, with each loop timed to match the duration of a deep breath. The collage created a virtual inhalation and exhalation of mountain air and light in the middle of Times Square.Image courtesy of the artist.
