This is an unusual site with a unique perspective on life. Powered with Flash technology, it takes a few minutes to load but is worth the wait. The viewer has a choice of two locations: the Modena railway station and a canal in Venice. As the viewer moves the curser around the circle, the photo changes, reflecting the life and sounds at this particular location over a 24-hour period. It makes one realize how any particular location has an ephemeral life and ambience, changing throughout the day depending upon the people that habituate it. The sound is integral to the viewing experience, so turn up your volume and enjoy.
