stunning

i am just floored by how beautiful this installation is- "maximilian’s schell" by architects benjamin ball and gaston nogues at materials & applications is a new vortex-shaped, outdoor installation in Los Angeles that, "warps the flow of space with a featherweight rendition of a celestial black hole". the installation is the size of an apartment building and is a spectacle that has been stopping traffic along silver lake boulevard since its unveiling two weeks ago. constructed in tinted mylar resembling stained glass, the vortex functions as a shade structure, swirling above the outdoor gallery through november 26, 2005. for more information, see here. gorgeous, just gorgeous.
