What is a kaleidoscope ?? ...hmmm...i dun know what is it used for :(...so can't answer :(

thanks for asking. i was not sure how recognizable such a thing was. it is a tube with a part at the end that includes various sizes and shapes and colors of colored glass or plastic. if you turn the kaleidoscope and look through the tube, then an infinite number of designs occur. often there are mirrors in the midst of the pieces, too.

Yes ...i know there is something like that ....i had saw it before :)...is very nice ...can i ask another question...why do you choose a red crayon ??

for me, red is a color speaking to me of the energy of life.

but it could be any color of crayon that could draw upon the page.

If i focused to be that red crayon ....being the energy of life ...living life to the fullest ...does it means i were also be a kaleidoscope that portraits the beauty of this life :)...hmmm...

as i turn the crayon and the light hits the line drawn in different angles, does not the color shift? are there not hues within the red? if so, then as you say......does the kaleidoscope exist within the red crayon, too?

the kaleidoscope is one of my favourite little old discoveries from the past. My first perception was a brown combination of roof in the city.
