Liquid light shows (or psychedelic light shows)[not verified in body] are a form of light art that surfaced in the early 1960s as accompaniment to electronic music and avant-garde theatre performances. They were later adapted for performances of rock or psychedelic music.

Leading names included Bill Ham, The Joshua Light Show/Joe's Lights/Sensefex located in NY, Tony Martin (SF, NYC), Elias Romero (SF), Mike Leonard (lights for Pink Floyd) (UK),[1] The Heavy Water Light Show,[2] Mark Boyle's Lights/Joan Hill (UK),[3][4] Marc Arno Richardson’s Diogenes Lanternworks (SF, Denver),[5] Lymbic System (Mark Hanau) (UK),[6] Glen McKay's[7] Headlights, The Pig Light Show (NY),[8][9] Lights by Pablo (NY), The Brotherhood of Light (SF),[10] Little Princess 109 (SF),[11] LSD,[12] Ed's Amazing Liquid Light Show,[13] Abercrombe Lights (SF),[14] the Single Wing Turquoise Bird light show (California),[15][16][17] Sector (Alberto Zanotti) and Anna Patti (Italy).
