In this time of evolutionary reflection our place in this Universe is still unknown. The first connection and worship of this unknown has been epitomized by light itself. Light being the life giver to all living things. The "Fata Morgana" is an interactive homage to this powerful and illusionary element.

Here are some links of some amateur footage:

Fata Morgana in motion @ Coachella 08' (at night)

Fata Morgana in motion @ Stagecoach 08' (daytime)

The most visual similarity to the "Fata Morgana" is the the Orrery. (see image bellow)

** "Fata Morgana"

**An optical phenomenon that creates the illusion of water, often with inverted reflections of distant objects, and results from distortion of light by alternate layers of hot and cool air.

The illusionary possibilities of this piece have only begun. Witness the transformation of light and your own frequency.
