a bit more info
As far as I can tell, the 'plasma laces' are just EL (electro-luminescent) wire, which is really neat stuff. Phosphorous + wire in tube == FUN!!
Wanna make your own? Cool Neon has pre-made kits as well as parts for those so inclined. There's a couple other sites i've found, but the bookmarks are at home, and I'm at work :(. $25 for 10' of wire, $7.50 for a driver that'll take care of 30' of wire (Disclaimer: I am not an employee, just a satisfied customer). The price of the wire seems pretty consistent, other places have other drivers that will do stuff besides just make them glow (blink, chase...) -
Re:shoelaces?
try partyworks for some wire outright, or cool neon for some neat designs using same. coolwireusa has 'smore. coolwireusa has the biggest line out of these. coolneon has diy info. Funny thing is that I just looked this up for a project today...
random tip: altoids crushed in coke or pepsi... mmmm.
