Cityscope
November 26th, 2008 FunForever
Cityscope, an installation in Germany, is a very peculiar and interesting piece of art. It reflects fragmented views on the city and composes at the same time a three-dimensional image of the surrounding facades. The beholder becomes a part of the reflections as he moves around it. During the day the triangles covered with radiant foil reflect the surrounding cityscape in different colors (the color depends on the position of the beholder) At night the installation becomes transparent as it is lit from within. Cityscope lets people observe their surroundings in a different way. This is a pretty cool and very amusing installation.

Great soap bubble effect. I like the idea of looking inside an object to explore the outside reflections of a city.
