CoEvolution Quarterly, Fall 1984
“I’d seen our sun moving down behind the stationary horizon of an apparently fixed world. Though I knew that the earth spun, I did not see or feel it. The world I experienced was passive and immensely unmoving. But a simple shift in interpretation, from the horizon as stationary to the sun as stationary, caused the horizon and my frame of reference to tilt up in front of the sun.”
