(mirors, leds, water steam) october 19th, 2006

When one leaves a bathroom after a good hot shower, condensation appearing on the mirror at the opening of the door betrays highlights and the difference of temperature of the wall upon which it is hanged.

Public toilet device:
A discrete video camera captures our image whilst we are watching ourselves in the mirror. Our image/silhouette is seized and some water steam appears on the mirror. Our silhouette appears in reserve as if the mirror had kept something of the visit. Behind the mirror, a del screen locally modifies the temperature according to the video image. The mirror can be slightly refrigerated (scrod device of refrigerator). A water steam sprayer, of the type of those associated to fanes reconstitutes the difference of temperature or humidity of air. Condensation will agglomerate on cold areas of the mirror.
