| Inner Cell
|
|
| A series of large kaleidoscopes are embedded in the outer wall of the inner cell, one of nine major installations in the Nano exhibit. Visitors of all ages insert their heads into openings as the kaleidoscopes display live video of the inner cell and its participants, while hearing a passage from a science fiction narrative. The kaleidoscopes face different directions and display alternate perspectives; two point into the inner cell, at the visitors engaging with the space, while another displays a live-video feed of the bird's eye view of the cell space. The fracturing of vision from multiple perspectives, combined with oral storytelling of science fiction prompts visitors to become immersed in the complex images or virus-like assemblages created by their fellow exhibition visitors.
