The Ocean, Bubbles, Waves and Clear Skies
Scope-O-Scope (version 0) is a metaphysical metaphor rendered in object form, reflecting a layered interpretation of perception, consciousness, and reality. Each component symbolizes an aspect of existential awareness: “The Eye” is the passive witness, ever-present yet impartial, devoid of ego or desire. The “Spider-eye” disperses this singular awareness into multiplicity, mirroring how consciousness fragments across experiences and perspectives. The “Wind-chime” embodies the influence of time and circumstance-its fluttering flaps shifting clarity and distortion, much like how the winds of life shape our understanding. Finally, “The Mirror” suggests self-reflection and the ultimate return to source, polished by the endless repetition of existence. Altogether, the device proposes that life is a recursive act of observation, in which the universe, through countless lenses and shifting forms, is looking back at itself in an eternal act of self-recognition.
