Let there be light! Worshippers visiting Saint-Eustache cathedral in Paris are being treated to a laser light show created by using their smartphones

The lighting changes in response to text messages sent from peoples smartphones, to a number used by the cathedral.

Artist Filipe Vilas-Boas created the installation, Shooting Thoughts, in the cathedral, where the laser beams create what looks like a constellation of stars as well as a large cross.
