compressed expansion
   
               
   

compressed expansion. a paradox solved with mirrors inside of a box, with the help from 100 green lightbulbs.


the box, hanging from the ceiling, is made of white transparent plastic, reflecting the inside light which gives it a different appearance at different light settings.


by looking through the hole in the box, you can see the inside expansion - an endless optical illusion. the inside view stays constant at all surrounding light settings.
