Ever wonder what you look like from behind? Using 4 giant mirrors, Tail Yourself lets you see. The exhibit consists of two pairs of mirrors. Each pair is set at exactly 90 degrees to each other. This arrangement reflects light back exactly in the direction it came. If you look into such a pair of mirrors your reflection is not right-left reversed and you see your face as others see you. With two pairs of these mirrors, you can see what you look like from behind.
Many children have had the experience of standing between parallel mirrors and seeing their image multiply reflected off onto infinity. This exhibit, Look Into Infinity , makes it easy. A fixed mirror surrounded by lamps has a hanging mirror in front of it with eye-holes for visitors to look through. The visitor can move the hanging mirror and manipulate the infinite “tunnel” they see through the eye-holes.
Everybody loves kaleidoscopes. Bob Miller took this to an extreme. At the Duck-Into-Kaleidoscope , you do just that - duck under the wall of the exhibit and into the middle of a giant 3-walled mirrored chamber where you can see thousands of “you”!
