Concept Design for an athletic arena project - copyright 2016 - Rufus Butler Seder
Years ago, a fascination with antique motion picture toys led me to wonder if I could create movies on a grand scale using no electricity, moving parts or special lighting. After some experiment I developed an 8& square, three-pound, lens-ribbed glass tile, which I called a LIFETILE. By combining many LIFETILES, I found I was able to create large-scale &Movies for the Wall&: optical wall pieces that appear to come to life, move and change when the observer walks by.
