I found these, in a box of offcuts, waiting to be thrown away:

I tried putting them on a scanner, but it didn’t capture the colour. So I experimented further with the limited capabilities of my phone camera, to see what it would make of them:

I like the reds and yellows, against the green- which is just a glitchy colour artefact. Reminds me of photos in science magazines.

What I like about the last two images is not the same as what I like about the offcuts as three-dimensional objects. The little cylinders really make me want to play with them and collect more, even though they are completely pointless. Still, it’s a nice feeling. I wonder how to make something that will share that and provoke/invite that feeling in other people?
