Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
One new idea for every day in 2011. We're talking big, small, local, international, in action and on the drawing board. Here's today's -- what's yours?
In 2011, New York-based designer and entrepreneur Mike Bodge created an equation and a website to answer a simple question:
What's the average color of the New York City sky?
The result is a grid that's updated every 5 minutes with colored boxes and images of the New York sky -- taken with his webcam.
Bodge writes that he's working on expanding his project to include images and sky colors from around the world. "Do you have a great view, a webcam, and an internet connection?" he writes. "I'd love to hear from you. Please get in touch."

Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
