The world has gone through a tragic year. Millions of people have died from COVID-19, and social, cultural and economic life has been curtailed everywhere. With the acceleration of vaccinations, life in many places is returning to normal. But before life can feel truly normal, we must remember the destruction of the past year. In response to this, there is the initiative “This moment in time”. On June 21, the day of the summer solstice, gongs will be played in public places around the world. At noon local time, the musician will beat the gong for one continuous hour, noting the countless losses of the past year.
