Inspired by a number of infinity type mirrors and geometrical shapes, I have set out to try and create a physical tesseract, or hypercube, using the same effect. I plan on trying different ways to create this effect. To start out I have made a design that uses tritium vials to light the inside. This means that no batteries are required to get the infinity effect inside of the cube. The parts were printed at shapeways, and it uses this 1mm acrylic two-way mirror.

First prototype build!

What about building a stand for it with hidden blacklight LEDs? I wonder if that would make it glow brighter? My wife collects uranium glass and we've built hidden blacklight displays for her stuff and it glows really bright.
