Meow Box

I was thinking about this idea again today -- "The Feline Box of Lucid Delight!"

I should probably sell this idea to an off-beat photographer; It goes like this:

First, i find a large glass aquarium prism, or some translucent box, of large size. Now, this project will work best in summer for the following reason. Cats naturally shed a lot more in summer, with the coming heat...so, in summer, find a cat (best if he's a friendly fellow) and put him in the box (no malicious intent, i assure you). Then, reach into the box with rubber gloves, and furiously pet the pussycat, so that his hair and dander are launched into the air of the box. You must be sure only to open the box's top slightly in order to pet him, so the flying fur doesn't escape. Then, soon after the box's atmosphere is choked up with floating hair, take 5-8 different high power beams of different colors (deeply saturated and bright colors are best), and shine them through the prism. So, the different beams are shining at different angles (obliques and diagonals and horizontals, from atop/below/and to side of the box...through the flying fur and strangely silhouetting the cat; creating a bizarre and magnificent scene, to be photographed. Light, fur, refraction, reflection, cats, and colors - all together - grand Art!
