Two projectors need fresh liquid slides. The other projectors are humming and spreading their psychedelics the way they should.
A guy from the audience climbs onto our platform, saying: "Cool man! Can I see how it works?"
Saying 'yes', will mean that the light show we actually are doing will go wrong. Plus the circumstances are not right to allow meaningful conversation with the studious visitor.
​
Because of that, you can watch five videos to psychedelicly garnish your own party. Who knows, you might get inspired and start a new old school light show.
Don't forget to show your results to Sphinx Classics or the rest of the world.
Live tutorials are also possible.
Sphinx Classics appears with the hardware and liquidware on a still to choose spot. Together we work our way through the teaching material that matches the intended visuals. When we're done, you'll master the tricks good enough to perform with it.
We share our skills by 'Do This at Home' prints. To inspire you and to save the classic light show from extinction.

Come on, give it a try and brew yourself a psychedelic light show.
Want to use the effects of a splodascope (which is called kit slide by Sphinx Classics)?
This is how to make one.
Reliable and beautiful.
Like to have those sweet pastel colors on the screen. Some polarisation in your lightshow, will do fine. But how to do that?
Another approach with Cellophane Slides, an extraordinary type of liquid slides.
They move differently, they look different. And you know, speed isn't always required.
This one is about a slide that we call Kit Floop.
4 Slide glasses, between them 3 layers of liquid. Or:
3 Slide glasses, with 2 layers of liquid. Or:
Just 2 slide glasses with 1 layer of liquid.
The slide glasses are glued together at the bottom and at the left and right side with a stripe of silicon sealant of 1 mm thick. So the distance between the glasses is 1 mm.
Put the Kit Floop in a projector without a heatshield. Inject the liquids you love and...
