Kaleidosphere
The Kaleidosphere is an extraordinary kaleidoscope, created by the artist and sculptor Nick Moore, who has designed optical installations for major galleries and museums around the world.

It looks like a mirrored perpex obelisk. At the far end is embedded a perspex sphere, so when you look inside, you see multiple curved images of the world as a background. The high mirrored interior is bounded by lines that let in the light, creating multiple intersecting angles. Within the sealed interior are 3 perspex spheres, that roll to and fro as you tilt the Kaleidosphere.

We pointed a small digital camera into the Kaleidosphere, and shone two little LED lights inside, and obtained the picture you see here. Another very interesting effect is obtained by shining one of those tiny red lasers in through the end that you view through, and illuminating the inside including the perspex spheres. Remember to be careful not to shine any laser directly into your eyes though.

The kaleidosphere is made of perspex, and is 12 inches in length. Packed in an attractive box, it would make an amazing gift.

Nick Moore is going to be working outside the UK in the near future, and we have bought his entire stock of Kaleidospheres from him, so this will not be available anywhere else.
