How did they do that? Neat stuff, but how?

Unless I see a source with a decent article explaining it, I'm calling Photoshop on this.

It's real. Done with fiber optic strands.

My main question is, does it work both ways? I mean, it'd be cool to have as decoration in spots of your house, but if it works both ways, screw that.

I'd assume so. Being that light transfers through fiber optic going both ways, whichever side has the bright light emission would prevail.

That's what I figured, but with weird shit like this, you never know.

I bet bricks w/ fiber in them are a bit pricey.
