Island among the mirrors

A couple of final pictures from the “Infinity Mirrors” exhibit. This was our introduction to the mirrored rooms – three (in this one case four) people allowed in at a time, to stand on a small “island” among the mirrors for 20 seconds. Actually, I think it was 16 seconds for this particular room. I didn’t believe the time limitations before I got there, but in fact the museum aides had stopwatches and stuck to the limits to the second.

Tim took this and doesn’t like it because he cut his head off, but I do as it shows how various people approached the displays, some trying to take photographs with cameras or selfies with cell phones, and others just taking it all in, which is what the museum wanted everybody to do in the first place.
