Kaleidoscope for Plural Perspectives

Dublin Core

Description

A similar-looking artifact to a telescope but with a different function, since it has 3 different discs at the end of it. Those discs contain colors that prevent other light from coming in and the third disc contains special colors, so when people look through the opposite side can see a scenario that changes depending on the way that they look at it.
