 +Clay model of Shaerae a set of 5 bubbles, the entrance is through a self closing corridor of the upper two smaller bubbles. Where bubbles meet by a semitransparant dividing membranes, so people walk from chamber to chamber. The under cloth is white, and the upperlayers will be white-translucent. 
 +When projection from inside is required a cloth (inside white/outside black) can be pulled over the top and attached to the white underpart. 
 +Idealy the total lenht is about 12 meters and the higest point is 3,5 meters.
