The Dream-O-Scope

The Dream-O-Scope is a kaleidoscope concealed within a stationary tourist scenic viewer. Typically found at landmarks, these permanent metal devices house coin operated binoculars or telescopes. The Dream-O-Scope offers viewers a small gesture of playfulness as they find unexpected reflections of the familiar landscapes around them, and the ones they find within themselves.
