The Atlas of Tomorrow: A Device for Philosophical Reflection is an interactive installation that translates the I Ching into a public tool to help people examine their lives. Instead of traditional coin-tossing to determine your I Ching hexagram, this process involves rotating a pointer. A painted dial displays the sixty-four characters like a clock face. Passersby are invited to think of a question or situation in their life where they seek clarity and then turn the wheel at the sidewalk level to rotate the dial. Once they stand back to see which specific character the dial points to, they can find the character and its guidance on one of sixty-four stories displayed at the sidewalk level.
