@Goldjunge_Chriz
Have the mirrors been picked up yet by the art forwarder? The guy called me last week just to tell me to call me again last Sunday to determine the actual delivery. So far I haven’t gotten a call back.

exactly what happened to me as well. I haven’t heard back from the delivery guy.

I am curious how the first experience is with the mirror. Please let us know.

[Goldjunge_Chriz]

Yes the mirrors were picked up today. He goes first to Berlin. He will contact everyone else for an appointment. During the next week, all will be delivered. My garage is now empty :)

The shipping company says that the tour program for next week is not yet finished. But all mirrors are delivered next week, the sequence of the cities is only not fixed yet. They will inform you on Saturday (@Ali Baba and @ferby09 already know, as these mirrors are still delivered tomorrow)

I also wonder that there are unfortunately no pictures yet. Here are a few new photos of me at different times of the day (daylight, room lighting, dark) to shorten the waiting time. I baptized the glass “MagicGlass” :D

I opened the crate, checked the mirror glass for any damage (no damage found :thumbsup: ) and closed the crate again to avoid any impact on the glass.
And I’m pretty sure no one wants to see unboxing pictures

I’m sure, of the 35 delivered mirrors is one or the other mirror already in use ;)

@Goldjunge_Chriz what sort of display do you use for your mirror?

I have got my glass from @Woody, the pickup was smooth, perfectly packaged, all is well. The performance, I’m not completely 100% convinced yet… it is way better than my previous mirror film solution, but quite a lot darker than a “normal” mirror that hangs in the same room, even when the display behind it is turned off. With the display on, the backlight of the LCD makes the reflection a bit less prominent still. I presume an AMOLED would be ideal for this with a perfect black, but any backlit LCD is going to give off some light on its black areas.

The mirror is facing with the protective film side outwards, the unprotected side towards the screen. Protective film is of course removed :)

I’ve taken a few pictures of it, it actually looks a bit better in the pictures than it does IRL:

(ignore the wires and the lack of a frame, it’s very much at prototype stage still)

@olexs now, I don’t have this glass on my mirror, but in my experience the reflection part will become much better when there is no light coming from the back as it does now! :) (Even the tiniest amount of light from the other side lessen the reflection!)
