Word of the Day: Kaleidoscopic
Kaleidoscopic things are complicated and undergo constant changes. A controversial movie might result in a kaleidoscopic range of reactions, especially on the Internet.
A kaleidoscopic album from your favorite musician combines many different styles and sounds of music, and a kaleidoscopic conversation veers from one topic to another, almost dizzyingly. The adjective kaleidoscopic, which is sometimes used to mean simply "multicolored," comes from kaleidoscope, a toy that reflects images off tiny mirrors to create dazzling patterns — literally, it means "observer of beautiful forms," from the Greek kalos, "beautiful," and eidos, "shape."
"The light was anchored at the store, shooting up into the heavens, bathing the countryside in a weird kaleidoscopic glow" - The Son of Neptune
"For now, multitudes of corals still bloom on neighboring reefs, attracting fish in kaleidoscopic abundance." - Seattle Times
