Echoscope is a sculpture that utilizes organic elements to invite an immersive viewing experience in a kaleidoscopic visual metaphor for an echo chamber. Observing the exploded fractal view inside the chamber creates perceptual echoes--the same type that are packaged into smaller and smaller pathological bubbles of media psychobabble, all sharing a similar thread of polarized and assumed this/that, me/other. In our ever-warming climate of media A.I. and feedback loops enhanced to show and exploit our affinity for reaffirmed constructs, what ripples are echoes.
