Kaleidoscope Artist: Will Smith |
Will Smith is one of the more innovative of our modern artists. He has produced kaleidoscopes from many different materials and in a huge range of sizes. His kaleidoscopes are sold under the name KaleidoWave. More of his scopes made with Michael Redmond can be seen on the Michael Redmond page of the Modern Kaleidoscope Gallery. |
Fountain of Aah's: This tabletop scope dates from 1997. A pedestal version is also available. The base of the scope serves as a water reservoir. A pump hidden among the rocks pumps water from under the glass orb. The action of the water turns the orb at an adjustable rate of speed. The glass orb acts as the object chamber for a pair of kaleidoscopes. One is a 60-60-60 and the other a 30-60-90 mirror configuration. I believe David Rosenfeldt made my marble. Most quality kaleidoscope dealers should be able to obtain additional marbles. All of these pictures were obtained with my single marble that came with my kaleidoscope. |
