uh now what...


got this off the street today. i have no idea what i will build with
this. one idea is to make it a scrying mirror.


"Scrying is a method of divination and takes on many forms. Scrying has been used for thousands of years by different cultures. Ancient Egypt used scrying in their Initiations. This included water scrying, dream scrying, oil scrying, and mirror scrying. One legend states that the goddess Hathor carried a shield that could reflect back all things in their true light. From this shield she allegedly fashioned the first magic mirror to "see." Nostradamus is believed to have employed a small bowl of water as a offering/scrying tool into which he gazed and received images of future events. " 
rehashed from ancient-wisdoms.com

the last time i used anything for scrying was at my old apartment in which my television what the scry. that was fun! since there are three panels i would make it for the 3 aspects of eruzile/ezili and somehow include medusa in there. because, medusa's my girl.
or i could take the mirrors, cut'em down. make individual scrying mirrors, like compact size and sell?? i know there's a ton of empty make-up cases at east bay center for creative re-use
