It's a kaleidoscope camera. First I made a standard focal camera; the camera body and lens holders are made of laser cut 3mm plywood. Mine has two different lenses stacked on one another. On it, I attached an emptied Pringles box with 3 same sized pieces of reflecting plexiglass. A kaleidoscope operates on the principle of a multiple reflection, so in this case 3 reflectors are placed at an angle to one another. When the eye is placed at one end of the reflectors, the original view from the aperture on the other side is multiplied into a symmetrical mosaic pattern. Unfortunately, the film advance dial broke before I managed to shoot the entire film, so my results ended up quite modest..
