How to use it
- Touch the bronze disc itself and move around its centre. The engraved plate follows your hand without sliding away from its stone cradle.
- Release the disc and let its momentum continue. Heavy, Balanced, and Long glide change its friction rather than setting a target.
- Watch the engraved relief travel beneath one stationary field of moonlight. The moon and the surrounding observatory do not move with the disc.
Lower-demand route
Set it turning gives the disc a gentle impulse without a circular drag. VoiceOver offers clockwise and anticlockwise turns. Still motion moves directly to the new resting angle.
Moon Dial remembers the chosen observatory, settling feel, and resting angle on this device. Changing observatory begins again with the disc at rest.
