Organic Visualizer is a large art tool viewing machine that illuminates a selection of organic specimens that are hermetically sealed from the outside world. Three types of lighting; uv light, LED spot lights and internal miniature timing lights and seven push button switches allow the viewer to observe the organic specimen. Internally, a tapered drum and globe rotates slowly to reveal various specimen in the viewing windows. At one end of the sculpture is a planetary globe model featuring a melt-down of abstract earthly elements and gasses with details provided by a magnifying lens.
