is it similar to the effects used in the Punch Drunk Love titling?

How old ARE you dude
just kidding...I'm 34, but never seen what you're talking about though

not sure snuggs, not seen it...
to be fair marychain, they were pretty provincial cinemas I was in as a bairn. I'm 4 years younger than you ;P
they used to project this kind of thing behind the Floyd in the 60s, very hippy...

really I'm just wondering if there was some kind of circular slide holder that held the plates of glass with the oil between (I'm guessing at method here). I'm thinking of using elements of this stuff for an ID.
which no one will get, obviously ;)

cheers snuggs, that looks more light based though I think, its more obviously hippy dippy oil in water type stuff...
- kelpie0
this kind of thing.
I'm just being annoying here now aren't I?

do you mean like these?

aye, that's precisely the thing, I was wondering if there would be photos of older versions of the same thing, something with a bit more interesting a shape (to the actual slides). Old french photographic culture springs to mind for some reason. probably because I am a stupid.

i've seen it used in a cinema retaled id before kelpie... although more light based. can't think what the fuck for though...
