Let's do something like this!

From Strobist,




By writing words onto transparent plastic and sliding the sheet into a slot near the film plane, the whole rig now works backwards and becomes a projector. By leaving the shutter open and slaving the rear flash, he can now project those words onto the subject of someone else's photo when their flash trips his flash.


He's in it for the social commentary, but I can't help thinking how much fun this would be for sophomoric jokes, too.



We have the technology... can we do this for a happening of some sort?  Projected art, anyone?
