Friggin' awesome. I love EL wire.
How was the syncing done?

I just wired up a handheld toggle switch on each suit.  Cheap and easy, but practicing the timing was difficult.  Dancing in the dark WAS hard.  If I had to do this all over again, I might go with a fancier timed solution.

what the hell is an EL wire and how do I get some?

It's a thin copper wire coated in phosphor that glows when current is run through it.  Different colored sheaths yield other color glows.  You can buy it all over the place, but good luck putting it together. wink

(There's some pretty nasty blur here.  I'm sure there will be more recordings in the future, but if you're friends with me on facebook, there's a better one on there.)


And the music (not my favorite, but I think it fits).
