Talk:Non-reversing mirror

Is it real?
is such mirror real? --a5b (talk) 22:41, 9 January 2010 (UTC)


 * I would assume so. Not using the pair of 90-degree mirrors methods mentioned in the article, I think would be possible by using corner reflectors on a molecular scale. That would cause each individual ray of light by itself to be reversed, while still keeping the overall orientation of the light intact. --99.37.111.12 (talk) 04:15, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

Practical examples
"... public toilets ..." - Really now?? I don't think this is a very good example. I for one am not going to hunt around public toilets until I find one with what seems to me the rather unusual arrangement of a mirror on every wall. Can someone please add the example of the kind of cabinet many people have above their bathroom sinks, where you can open the mirrored doors independently? I don't know the correct terminology for that, or I'd put it in it myself. Also making a photo of one shouldn't be too difficult...  above --BjKa (talk) 08:28, 1 August 2017 (UTC)

more information about this topic
There is a wealth of new information about these kinds of mirrors, mainly from optically correct, seamless versions that are usable as personal tools for self-awareness and understanding. With almost 30 years of experience producing and exhibiting this to tens of thousands of people, there are many things I could add to this topic, but am very unclear as to how to post them here in an acceptable way.

My primary finding is our faces communicate properly to ourselves within this kind of mirror, and that they don't in traditional mirrors. Most people stare at themselves in mirrors, relatively expressionless, vs the way they are in real life as a communicating human being. In the optically correct non-reversing mirror, aka True Mirror(r), it's possible, and even easy to keep expressions going to facilitate normal communication with self. The theory is simple - left and right sides are different, especially in the eyes, and they belong there. When you flip the face, the information in the eyes and faces gets altered, then the response gets altered, and re-reflected, in a dynamic feedback loop that shifts one from what is real to something different. Since it isn't the same as real, often a pattern develops to just shift to a stare.

How can this concept be included here? There's a lot of video evidence to support it, where people come alive to themselves when looking in this kind of mirror, and almost immediately lose that vibrancy in reversing traditional mirrors
