I was raking through some old disco stuff and found this rather unique, but horribly inefficient effect. It uses a 250W halogen reflector lamp to project a kaleidoscope effect generated with a multi-layer oil filled disk with loose fragments of dichroic glass. A very nice effect, but not as bright as you'd expect for something so power hungry.

This also keeps the channel independent of YouTube's advertising algorithms allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty.
