Kaleidoscope for uncertainty and surprises, 2024

This triangular kaleidoscope has a flat box attached to the end. Water is continually pumped up from the bottom of the box to the top, where it drips back down between two panes of glass. The panes slowly move closer together and further apart, squishing and stretching the water droplets into unexpected formations. On three sides of the box, coloured lights illuminate the water in three different colours, so that the kaleidoscopic image inside is constantly changing.
