HesperusIsPhosphorus.space, 2019-2020
daily email exchange
For one year, HesperusIsPhosphorus.space sent a morning star each day just before dawn while Venus is Phosphorus, and an evening star each evening just before dusk while Venus is Hesperus via email, customized to the participants' time zone.
In HesperusIsPhosphorus.space questions of how proprioception (internal perception which tells us what is going on in our bodies) is related to exteroception (external or sensory perception, everything outside of our bodies), leads to new interpretations of how the knowledge of something could be empirical (a posteriori, or verifiable by observation) rather than nowable (a priori, independent from experience), debating the validity of both means for perception.
A means to interrupt one’s day, and traditional use for email, with a daily reminder of the connections between time, our bodies and heavenly bodies’ cycles.
