The bell tower announces each hour with the appropriate number of strokes from a “typical” bell. The computer then chooses a set of bells from Tutschku’s diverse collection that corresponds with the time of day, playing a short composition with those bells...
Tutschku said that he has received several e-mails from students who have generally affirmed their appreciation of the newly installed bells.
Many Quadlings, however, were taken aback when they first heard the bells ringing last Wednesday. No official notice was given out notifying the Quad residents of Tutschku’s project.
John G. Carlsson ’05, who is a joint music and mathematics concentrator in Cabot House, was particularly surprised when the bells began their hourly chimes last week.
“At first it bothered the heck out of me, and I wrote to the house open list with a message that said ‘SHUT UP STUPID BELLS!’” Carlsson wrote in an e-mail.
