Liquid Len

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Liquid Len (born Jonathan Smeeton) is a British lighting designer.

Smeeton was the creator of "Liquid Len and the Lensmen" (a reference to the Lensmen space opera books) who provided spectacular lightshows for the band Hawkwind in the 1970s.

He has also provided lighting design for groups such as The Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd and, more recently, The Deftones.

He was name-checked in the classic Genesis tune "The Battle of Epping Forest". ("And his friend, Liquid Len by name, Of wine, women and wandsworth fame''...)
