Work in Progress | Spinning Lights

I've been a fan of persistence of vision toys for quite a long time. Indeed, I produced an exhibition about them back in 2002.

Recently started to get in to them again and have been scouring eBay for the the newer LED-based toys. These typically use the POV effect by spinning the LEDs to create interesting displays.

I plan to use the toys in my live work by creating live video loops of them that I will synchronise with music. The first outing of this new set will hopefully be with Stu Smith's ASMO in early May.
