Laplacian Magic Windows Sep 1, 2017 - Feb 29, 2020
The ‘magic' comes when light reflected from the mirror is observed as an illuminated patch on a wall, on which appears, unexpectedly, an image of the pattern on the back (figure 3). Underlying the explanation is the fact that during manufacture (cast... Read More about Laplacian Magic Windows.
