Colorful lights. These range from solid glow sticks to strobing LEDs or lasers. They are often used as part of the environment on stage or at the walls focusing in towards the audience. Personal light shows are very popular at raves. People will wear a variety of neon light emitting devices, often near or at the finger tips, and move them in rapid patterns with their hands or at the length of a string.
Drug Use. Some people have branded ravers as specifically a drug-centric culture because they are popular among some participants. Ecstasy is common because it makes fast moving light and physical touch more vivid and is easily obtained. Many other drugs can be found at raves and there are groups like the Toronto Raver Info Project that promote caution when choosing to use them.
