I'm very interested in psychedelic patterns and their influence in tribal "art". I'd like to propose a way to conservate sub-breakthru patterns using modern technology. It would be pretty simple. All we'd need is:

1 Laser Pointer
1 Videocamera
+ a motion tracking software (http://opencv.willowgarage.com/wiki/ perhaps?)

You'd take a small toke just to trace the edges of the patterns on the wall with your laserpointer. The motion tracking software would paint lines where you moved the laserpointer.
Afterwards you'd have the outline of a pattern you could build upon, adding appropriate colors and such.

What do you think?
