SET'98
Kaleidoscope Exhibition
MAINETTI MONSTER
This
shows one of the three 2metre long kaleidoscopes we constructed for the
show. The 'Monster' images were produced by two rotating frames covered
with a variety of plastic carrier bags. On the right of the picture you
can see a table top display of kaleidoscopes built by Jedburgh primary
school pupils
at in-school workshops.
Inside a Monster! Objects with reflective surfaces placed in strong light create a dazzling and magical design. This image is rotated 90 degrees anti-clockwise. The millions of lights should be at the bottom - the end of the kaleidoscope nearest the viewer.
One of the giant kaleidopscope was open both ends. The far end was supplied with places to hang old clothes etc. Children were encouraged to hang up thier display the run to the other end to see what they had created. This is a typical result.
