Eye Pod…..This One is NOT From Apple

By: Johnny Hartsfield

 

You won’t see this Eye Pod in your local Apple store.  Instead, you would have had to visit the University of Minnesota’s Landscape Arboretum’s collection of “Secret Gardens.”  Back in 2006, Chris Wegscheid’s entry did not include a single plant but rather a “body-sized camera obscura that would bring an ever-changing view of the arboretum into a secret indoor space.”

The camera is a walk-in box with a single glass lens that projects an image of the outdoor scene onto a blank white wall. 

Does anyone know of a bigger camera?
