HUGE thanks to everyone who jumped into our photo booth at the Bing and Cheezburger event at SXSW. You guys were aces all around. Great ideas, great vibes, great music, troll faces and high fives. We couldn’t have asked for a better crowd. If you’re lookin for your photos, they should be up on the [...]
Classic line of the night: “If you build it, they will…wait…this is going to sound bad” – A nice gentleman in reference to a photo that was SUPPOSED to look like his friend holding a champagne bottle spraying all over the place, but ended up looking like something…else… Last night we put on our wingtips [...]
The good people at Fotox1000 in Rome just posted photos from the event, and we’re finally able to see how our work was presented. We were grouped with other light painters from around the world (thats us along the bottom) and we really love the layout they went with. Its great and inspiring to see [...]
Need something to do this Sunday before Memorial Day? Come on out to Dark Disco, a RIDICULOUS mini-festival put on by our good friends at Good Peoples/Mean Red. The lineup is an insane collection of mysterious dubstep/bass/garage and house madmen who rarely emerge from their caves to play shows. Its at ELEMENT in NYC, its [...]
BEST. FLASHING LIGHTS. EVER. It was Jubilee‘s birthday, there were Frogs, Diplo and A-Trak jumped in front of our camera, the crowd went bonkers about a thousand times, and we took what some sources call “The Best Photo Ever”. And now…The Greatest Photo Ever. Our friends Mario and Drew heretofore render all other photographic images [...]
Hey dudes, First of all, THANK YOU to everyone who came out to Flashing Lights on Friday. We had the most fun we’ve ever had and we owe it all to the great people who got in front of the camera to wild out. Second of all, after a ton of demand, your photos are [...]
Whooooaaaaaaa So we’ve definitely been a bit “radio silent” lately, but we haven’t been resting on our laurels, eating chips and watching Two and Half Men reruns or anything. Nope, its all business. So let’s get back into it. Tonight, for those in the NYC area, we will be doing another LIVE lightpainting photo booth [...]
Hey everyone, whaaaat’s happening? Yeah. We’re going to need you to go ahead and sort of come in tomorrow night to..Studio B for Flashing Lights. Lets say, around 10 pm? It’s not a half day or anything. Mmmkay? Great. Yeaaaahhhh… Heavy handed references aside, we would love to see you all tomorrow night at [...]
Hey Dudes, Well, its been a heck of a week/couple weeks. We had the NPR piece, some great blog pieces, and we did some special valentine’s day stuff. Its been busy, but busy is good.

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.
