Time Fountain - Optical Illusion

This device creates the illusion that a simple stream of water droplets can defy the known laws of physics. By controlling a set of flickering LEDs, the dripping water can appear to slow down, freeze in mid-air, and even reverse in direction. This illusion exists because the brain attempts to fill in the gaps between flashes with its anticipated motion. It is the same reason that your brain interprets the 24 frames/second of a movie to be in-motion, rather than recognizing the individual still frames .The credit for this device belongs to Nate True.

I could be wrong, but I believe that there's a steady stream of water and there are lights behind it making it look like there are only a few drops and that they're glowing. When the water flows "backwards", and "stops" it's actually only the lights changing. Because it's dark in the room you can't see they constent stream of water, but if you watch from :59 to 1:11 it's easier to see.

Yeah, you also need a black light, and high lighter flued..
