Nice display. You can do this at home with a hairdryer and a light, spherical object.

That's awesome! This "Science of Magic" part of the forum is a hidden gem.

Love this- I continued to watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAYP6pWrdkc explaining why it happens, really interesting to see. Scientific thinking is so underrated when creating new effects!

Wondering if the compressor nostril could be mounted in a toolbox and the sound covered by music? Then it might be something?
No matter how many times you say the wrong thing, it will NEVER be right.

If I'm not responding to you? It's because you're a TROLL!

Abbott's sold this, many years ago. It used a balloon and a hair dryer, if I remember correctly. A wooden "profile" of a rabbit, was used on a table top to hide the blower.

This "principle" has been used in store window "displays".
