The centerpiece of the exhibit: A kaleidoscopic device that allows for relatively safe viewing of the Neath's unique shades of light.
Game Instructions: The effects of this are random and mostly unpleasant – particularly the irrigo. But go on, don't you want to try it?

Description summary:
The description varies based on your 
Kaleidoscopic Colour quality.
| Colour | Description |
|---|---|
1 ( Peligin) | The light is a black darker than black, and a blue deeper than blue. Your organs squirm in their cavity, not quite feeling like themselves. |
2 ( Violant) | Your eyes taste unfinished business and unpaid debt on the light as you gaze into the swirling shapes. […] you nearly bump into someone as you turn around – an old acquaintance, here visiting […] with a beautiful young friend who is assuredly not his spouse. |
3 ( Apocyan) | The shapes, bathed in apocyanic light, commit themselves exactly to your memory, their precise angles engraved in your mind. [...] you'll recall how exactly they resemble the pattern on the wallpaper in a parlour you stood in, long ago, on the Surface. |
4 ( Viric) | The spectacle of shapes and colours makes you drowsy; you feel your entire body relaxing as the light, which is not green but reminds you of jungle leaves, floods your retinas. |
5 ( Cosmogone) | The light is treacly and inviting, but too much so. If you were half as aware and twice as desperate, you might mistake it for the sun warming your face. |
6 ( Irrigo) | The eyeholes on the neathoscope await you. But the gentleman in line behind you is tutting fiercely. Have you already had a look? |
7 ( Gant) | You see nothing – nothing at all – within the machine. But there's a grainy, prickly sensation; as if something is gnawing on the inside of your head. |
