ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************

Somewhere out there I saw a sculpture once...outside, in front of a 
science center somewhere...from all angles, as I recall, this sculpture 
appeared as an abstract, chaotic mess of blocky shapes and empty 
spaces, packed into the shape of a sphere--from all angles but one.  If 
viewed from one particular perspective, the sculpture revealed itself 
to be the image of Albert Einstein.

As clever as it is difficult to describe.

I want a tabletop version of one of these for a simple exhibit about 
light and shadow.  Does anyone know what I'm talking about and know who 
might be responsible for the creation of such a wonderful object?

Thank you!
