Mikroskop by Olafur Eliasson





Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson created a huge kaleidoscope inside the atrium of a museum. Titled "Mikroskop," the installation is one of the standout pieces in the artist's first solo exhibition in a Berlin institution. The central theme of the show is Berlin, the city in which the artist has lived and worked for many years.

“Innen Stadt Außen” (Inner City Out) concerns itself closely with the relationship between museum and city, architecture and landscape, and space, body and time. The entire project includes 28 works, most of which have been created especially for this occasion

research: Voronoi Diagram / Studies


In mathematics, a Voronoi diagram is a special kind of decomposition of a metric spacediscrete set of objects in the space, e.g., by a discrete set of points. It is named after Georgy Voronoi, also called a Voronoi tessellation, a Voronoi decomposition, or a Dirichlet tessellation (after Lejeune Dirichlet), determined by distances to a specified

In the simplest case, we are given a set of points S in the plane, which are the Voronoi sites. Each site s has a Voronoi cell, also called a Dirichlet cell, V(s) consisting of all points closer to s than to any other site. The segments of the Voronoi diagram are all the points in the plane that are equidistant to the two nearest sites. The Voronoi nodes are the points equidistant to three (or more) sites.
