experiement- kaleidoscope







[definition]The word "kaleidoscope" is based on three words from ancient Greek; "Kalos" meaning beautiful, "Eidos" meaning form and "Scopos" meaning watcher. So a Kaleidoscope is a " beautiful form watcher".


Wondering how easily our vision could be manipulated by the way objects are showcasing, I made this kaleidoscope. On the end of the object are simply colourful plastic parts. But through the reflection of mirror and the motion we made, something normal become glittery. And I start to think how often we are cheated by our eyes in everyday life. Also, what if I put some objects with both visionary and odorant features, for example, spice, can we be more objective when "observing" what we see?
Moreover, besides kaleidoscope, with what kind of device I can convert people's feeling with different kinds of sensory sitimulation?
