Drip Chamber (2012)
Exploratorium, San Francisco, CA
30" dia. x 25"H – stainless steel, acrylic.
When flipped over, a fluid filled chamber forms drips which are illuminated from below. One side of the chamber has a screen onto which the drips are projected. The drips act as lenses that focus the light in interesting and beautiful patterns. One interesting feature is that the drips self-arrange into a quasi-hexagonal or vornoi latice of equally spaced drips.
