MRI went high fashion last night, and the results were indeed, in the words of one of the models, “FIEEEEEEERCE!” We had the opportunity to do a shoot with Valissa Yoe, stylist extraordinaire, to show off some of her newest styling creations. From the models to the stylists, we had a great vibe in the [...]
Who has seen Tron? The influence that movie has on lightpainting is obvious. The backgrounds, and the lightbikes, and the amazing amazing amazing costume design is called to mind whenever Michelle and I, or any lightpainters for that matter, are doing what we do. As a film though, what a strange yet fitting movie for [...]

LightBomber lets you create light paintings with your iPhone camera
I’ve loved creating light paintings with cameras ever since I was a 15-year-old with a Konica T4. My friend Scott and I would light sparklers and leave the shutter open on my Konica to produce these wonderful-looking images. I can still remember the thrill of seeing those photos, with their ethereal light trails, coming back from the photo lab. We’d use flashlights of various types, lamps, fireworks — just about anything to paint with light.
But with the iPhone? It’s not so easy. But now there’s LightBomber, an app that’s devoted to creating light trails and light graffiti. I’m just starting to experiment with it, but it is very, very cool, and I’m looking forward to seeing what iPhoneographers do with it.
