Palookavision

"What's Palookavision?" you ask. Special cardboard glasses(similar to the old 3d glasses) were developed for Norm's gigs which turn light into smiley faces. It's dificult to describe but if you've ever worn those ravey glasses they sell at hardcore events you'll know the sort of effect we're on about.
The Palookavision glasses were the brainwave of Tim Fleming, the guy behind all of Fatboy's visuals. But how the fuck do they work? Here's the science....
1) The lens is made up from special holospex, a type of perspex, which has hundreds of smiley logos embedded into it.
2) When you put the glasses on, any source of light highlights the holospex smiley logo - thus creating floating smilies in front of your eyes.
