Some stories begin with an answer.

This one begins with a question.

Every autumn, one hour quietly repeats.

Most people sleep through it.

We decided to document it instead.

THE MISSING HOUR is an ongoing public investigation into the repeated hour when Daylight Saving Time ends.

Through one controlled observation in Boulder, Colorado, and a parallel field observation in northern Arizona, the investigation follows two different experiences of the same moment.

Nothing inside the observation is repeated on purpose.

Everything becomes evidence.
