The Perspective glasses by Joel Englund, a Konstfack University design student, are definitely not your usual pair of specs. This triangle-shaped device, made from few mirrors and a pair of magnifying lenses, will give you a strange way to view the surrounding world by distorting your eyesight.
The Perspective shifting glasses are kind of like a kaleidoscope, but with a depth perception that may lead to an unexpected psychedelic experience.
