Any one know of light effects/illusions
ohter than the d- lite, floating lightbulb, or DC exploding light ? This is one area of illusion that I havn't studied much, but I'm sure theres more light effects.

Too me the most obvious, (and most beautiful) would be the Shadow Box illusion. As well as light bulbs through girl, strange power, Wellington Light Switch board, etc. Marvyn Roy built an entire act based on light bulbs and took it around the world several times. You may want to look into his biography, I believe it's called Around the world with a Light Bulb and a Blonde. There is also a very nice write up in the popular book by Hyla Clark, World's Greatest Magic.

Light bulbs through girl
milk in light bulb there was one effect where you could light a tube by passing your hand over it. I think it was discontinued or something |

There's also a "Mr. Electric" biography in print.

I have seen lighted dancing canes for sale at conventions. Also look for "Lit Bulbs from Mouth" from any of the dealers.

Thanks for all the great ideas! I have heard a lot about Marvin Roy, but never saw his act, I will look for the books mentioned.
I'm familiar with the large light illusions, I should have specified that I was looking more for just light bulb, or light effects, that can be done with props that are unseen by audience.

How about Jay's 'Light before your eyes' His combo with Doug Malloy's lean illusion is fantastic. Check out the youtube video:

Im not sure what his website is unfortunately. I do know that Dan Sperry did or was working on his new website. Maybe send Dan a message, he could give you the url. Dan's user name is Sperris I beleive.

I have always liked the Shadow Box illusion. It has a great effect to see someone materialize from an empty box, Iwant to add this to my own list of effects. Owln
