Nebraska State Parks Centennial Tour – Victoria Springs
Victoria Springs State Recreation Area is a gorgeous little piece of heaven surrounding a little lake that you can paddle out on little rental boats. There are trees everywhere! We set up in a huge field on the other side of the lake, and the night was just perfect – the haze drifted out forming…

Nebraska State Parks Centennial Celebration Tour – Chadron State Park
The town of Chadron is way up in the northwest corner of Nebraska, and this is where our first laser show was performed. We had quite a drive up through Texas and Colorado, seeing more and varied shades of green vegetation that I expected! And Chadron State Park is quite hilly, making for some interesting…

Granbury, Texas Sesquicentennial
I was very excited to plan and execute this show, because the Hood County Courthouse was the venue. What a building! We were able to stop by several times in the months before show day, and test the ongoing programming. The setting on show day, November 6, 2021, was just perfect. The laser show was…

Laredo – “Lights of Hope” – a COVID Remembrance
Our laser show was scheduled for Saturday, May 29, 2021; due to weather, everyone had to do some “fancy footwork” and the event was relocated and rescheduled for May 31. Lasers were set up just a few feet away from the airport, so we had to project away from the runway, and terminate the lasers…

Keller, TX – “Holly Days”
Keller Parks and Recreation was not able to put on their normal Christmas Tree Lighting in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic warnings against large gatherings of people in close proximity. We explored with them the possibility of having a series of short laser shows every half hour over several nights

North Richland Hills City Hall Laser Mapping
Intriguing architecture, perfect October weather, and Beatles music – this was an evening to remember! When the North Richland Hills Parks and Recreation Department contacted me about doing a show here, I did not see an opportunity to use the building itself as a projection screen. I began making plans to set up a normal…

Nebraska State Capitol Laser Mapping
We had an opportunity to project lasers upon the Nebraska State Capitol Building in Lincoln, NE for the final Sesquicentennial Celebration Party – what a party! What a show! After conducting a test on August 7, we had a month to prepare for the party on September 22, 2017. The Nebraska State Capitol is an…

Frederick Arts Council Laser Mapping
My first impression upon getting a request from the Frederick Arts and Humanities Council for a “dinner in the street” laser show was excitement – there were buildings everywhere! Maybe some of them would be good candidates for laser mapping. When I visited Frederick to plan the show, it became apparent that the charming Ramona…

Laser Mapping a Small Oak Tree
I went crazy last month, I performed “laser mapping” on an oak tree! I thought it would look cool to have highly controlled laser beams moving around an oak tree, drawing words and patterns upon the tree and following its shape. Once I thought about it, I could not get it out of my mind. …

North Carolina State Fair 2016, Raleigh, NC
The North Carolina State Fair found Laser Spectacles when the Agricultural Commissioner decided that the lake and its fountain could use a laser light show element. We placed a high power RGB laser on each side of the lake, and flanked each one with a smaller RGB laser to spread out the laser show. Four…
