My Grand Hall of Illusion

Oct 14, 2003 00:34

It occured to me today that it would be very cool to paint certain optical illusions on the walls and floor of a large hall with fluorescent paint and then bath the whole place in black light and have a party.

For the center of the floor, I would have the rotating snakes - done in Invisible Glow In The Dark Air Dried Lacquer. This way, under normal light, the floor look just white. I might have a two foot band of white and then have one of these illusions.

On the walls, I would have frames pictures of other optical illusions - cleverly disguised as normal art. One on wall though, I would have a mural done with normal and fluorescent paints. In normal light, it would look like one thing and in black light, it would appear as something else. I'm thinking of maybe a sunset/volcano type of picture. Don't have it all mapped out yet.
