Bending light, NEW TRIP TOY NOT CONSIDERED??

This is one of the fucking coolest trip toys!
It bends the lazer cross the ceiling looks like a fine net streached accross with faces, depth, and textures while tripping.
Take:
A: A 5 X 5 pieace of mylar B: a dollar store pen lazer
Crumble the Mylar up, really good, flatten it out! Take the lazer in a very dark room, point it on the mylar and find a sweet spot. If you do it right you can create entire world's of faces and net like texture's with patterns over the entire room.

It's pretty much just reflecting paper, growers often use it in their grow room.

This has got to be one of the coolest ideas I have heard in a while. The trick is to hold the laser still long enough that you can trip out on one face at a time, that or just watch the crazy show paint itself all over your room! Thanks for the idea!

UPDATE!
Screw that get 3 lazers, try your best to hold all of them in your hand at once with them all on, and shining on the mylar.
Mylar reflects 90% of light thats hits it!!
Make sure to crumble the mylar first, really really good, the key is to bend the lazer
The more lazers you add to the show the more textures the room fills up with!

Colored lights will be cool.
I don't know about aluminum, you can try it, but i think mylar would work the best!
Hey you all you can get pen lazers at dollar stores, VERY CHEAP!

aluminum foil will not work...mylar reflects even better than mirrors.
I love how these trip toy ideas evolve and change.
the best is to sit in a smoky room and give everyone their own piece of mylar. then everyone holds their mylar up against an cd case or their wallet or something to flatten it out. then, using the reflecting tools, the laser beam is bounced around the room like in one of those movies with the security lasers bounce everywhere. if everyone works at it, it is awesome.
mylar and laser = coolness.

Anyone know if any stores carry mylar? Or would it be just Hydro-ponic stores? Any Links that would have it?

Try craft stores, florists (they sometimes wrap bouquets in it ), or party stores (mylar baloons)
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers
