The subjective experiences is that as you look at the sky as it gets darker and the colors shift inside the space, the sky appears to change color, and the round sky portal which at first seems flat begins to take a convex shape, like a bezel. Although it was cloudy, and even rained, the sky above me appeared to turn deep blue, and sometimes bits of green flickered across it.

"We're here at the perfect time," said M- and we looked up at the sky for a bit. Then she said "Do you know what this piece is about?" I felt like someone had asked me what coffee is about. Isn't it obvious?

"Um, it's about the sky," I said. We sat there quietly for a while and then she said "Do you want to know what it's really about?" And I said yes, and she explained.

And then I saw it happen.

How could I have missed the obvious for years? One gloomy dusk in November, I found out why the Turrell skyspace in Golden Gate Park is called The Three Gems.

Read more on my blog and find out why you might want to visit The Three Gems this winter.

OK. We know most of what modern culture knows as the Wild West is bullshit. But who doesn't love a Remington?
