THE CLIFF EDGE
A 1000-day creative experiment synchronized with solar cycles. Each day is marked by intention, creation, and reflection—all tracked within a living system.
THE SYSTEM
This is not just a website. It's a temporal architecture—a framework for sustained attention over nearly three years. The system breathes with the sun, responds to human gates, and evolves through daily practice.
CORE PRINCIPLES
Solar Synchronization: All timing is based on actual sunrise and sunset calculations for Thornton, Colorado (NOAA standards).
Morning & Evening Gates: Each day begins with intention (Fₐ expansion) and ends with reflection (Fₚ compression).
Public Accountability: Every day is published. Progress is visible. There is no hiding.
Systems Thinking: Tools, automation, and visualization work together to reduce friction and maintain momentum.
TECHNOLOGY
Built entirely with vanilla JavaScript, HTML5 Canvas, and CSS3. No frameworks. No build tools. Just clean code and mathematical precision.
DURATION
1000 days. Approximately 2.74 years. Started January 1, 2025. Estimated completion: October 2027.
