Perception is a giant eye with a double pendulum on either side that can be spun around the pupil to trace a glowing pattern over the iris. Perception invites the participant to contemplate the distinctiveness of their perspective of the world we live in. Just as the stroma within every human iris forms a unique biometric signature and just as each glowing pattern traced onto the iris of Perception is unique due to the chaotic kinematics of a double pendulum, so too is every being's perceived reality singular to their own consciousness.
"From family to nation, every human group is a society of island universes."
― Aldous Huxley, The Doors of Perception
