Here's our campus carillon - all 167 feet of it - and its reflection. I didn't really think anything more about it than usual this morning (which is to say, not much) - I was more concerned with feeling happy that we still have a Wednesday Farmer's Market on campus, although it's a shadow of its former pre-Covid self.
But walking back to the carpark after dinner with today's job candidate in Art History, he asked ... what's inside the tower? A perfectly reasonable question that I'd never before thought of posing. Errrrr - steps? The mechanism for the (electronic) bells? I felt more than a little sheepish that I'd never previously given a thought to the bell tower's innards.
