Sundial
The Earth receives most of its energy from the Sun, the source of energy for all life. Measuring time, a task central to our daily lifestyle, is based on the relationship between the Sun and Earth. Since the age of ancient civilizations, people are believed to have used the light and shadows created by the sun to measure time. The sundial has been used since antiquity as a device for measuring time. Sundials are classified into one of four main categories: horizontal, vertical, circular, and cylindrical. Each category in turn includes various types. This papercraft model is modeled on a horizontal sundial. Use this model to see how well it matches the actual time or to check time differences with other cities and latitudinal differences. Yukio Ono Born 1946 in Tochigi Prefecture. Graduated from Nihon University, becoming professor at Tokyo Zokei University. Studied environmental structures in the Interior Architectural Design program at Tokyo Zokei University from 1973. Released three-dimensional works from 1974. Over the past ten or years or so, he has used the sundial system to create environmental structures that emphasize individuality and harmony with local communities. In 2001, he won the Grand Prix in Le Ombre Del Tempo, the international sundial competition. His large body of work in Japan includes a benchshaped sundial in Omiya, a chair sundial at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan in Nobeyama, a wall-mounted sundial at Miyagi University, and the Kodomonokuni Sundial in Sano, Tochigi Prefecture. He is a member of the Japan Sundial Society.
