original bauhaus model: bauhaus optical colour blender – design ludwig hirschfeld-mack

phenomenal colours, turning and astounding - ludwig hirschfeld-mack investigated optical mixtures of colours as early as 1924 with his colour blender. when turning quickly, the inertia of the human eye gives the impression of colour mixes. if a colour stimulus is added or removed, the viewer's perception changes. 7 discs of cardboard with different colour divisions can be placed individually on the spinning top, rotated and admired.
