"This is What Happens When You Build a Cube Out of One Way Mirrors"

[Foxx]

This showed up on my facebook feed one day recently and I thought it was kind of a neat art installation (certainly a lot better than a lot of the drivel that passes for "art" these days), so I thought I'd share it here.

This is one of those art projects that I could probably stare at for hours, losing myself inside it. The design collective Numen for Use created a 3D box of one-way mirrors, which also expands and contracts when inflated. The results are nothing short of awe-inspiring!

The link includes a couple videos and animated GIFs that show the cube "breathing".

That was very cool. Shared it on FB, and it's racked up 4 shares since, so clearly we're not the only ones who like it!

Mesmerizing!! It's like looking at some kind of crazy 3d fractal! :O
