I had wondered why the museum, or Carsten himself hadn't come back to me yet over my concerns that his new Art project wasn't going to work as expected. The reason is- Carsten has done his research!
Despite me feeling all smug that I was about to ruin one of the world most prominent aritsts with my clever scientific pooh-poohing of his work- he already knows what I've been trying to tell him! The following is cribbed from the press release:
The eight-day experiment involves volunteers wearing the vision-inverting goggles and living together at a central location in Manchester, following a schedule they will record in a film of their experiences. Activities and entertainment will also be scheduled with the goggle-wearing volunteers finding their vision returning to normal as their brains correct the inversion.
It is expected that they will remove the goggles on stage – where their view will again be upside down, as their brains will have adjusted their vision to view the world the right way round while wearing the goggles. Vision is expected to return to normal, though, after a short period of time.
I suppose I should be pleased, pleased that he did his research, and pleased that the experiment will all work out as planned. Also I should be pleased that I can still remeber the GCSE physics I did so long ago (which is how this whole thing started.)
...but I'm not. I'm really disappointed I didn't get to outsmart an artist.
