Kelidescopes

Post by Metacrock » Wed May 21, 2014 10:01 am

I love them. I dont' spend a lot of time looking at them. Now and then when I'm bored I like to go look one up and watch it.When I was little (pre school) my grandmother gave my brother and I a kaleidoscope, she had it as a child and I loved it. I was cool. I enjoy looking at them a bit. It's not something I spend a lot of time on.

One that's kind of neat is an interactive kelidescope on the net. you build it yourself out of tool they give you. It can be different every time.

An animated one--not interactive

kelidescope mandala
watch that and say to yourself "you are getting sleepy"

The Enchanted Forest Theme Park near where we live in Oregon has a lovely kaleidoscope. You look in a window and it appears to go on infinitely in all directions. I can't find an image, but here's a bit about the theme park:

I'm glac you like my kelidescope topic. I thought it might be dippy. But what the hell, it's relaxing.

I love beautiful things. They refresh my spirit. Those ones you linked are wonderful-- especially the Mandala one.

It's cool but it makes me dizzy to run the cursor over it. so I don't like the interactive aspect.

Here's a new one! It's like the one where you put stuff in a field and it puts into a kaleidoscope, Only with this one you darw the links in. It's looks a let different.
