How to take distorted and psychedelic iPhone photos like Chase Jarvis

If you want to take photos like the one above, then check out this cool article over at WIRED.
The technique is a bit hit and miss, but with the right subject and some patience, then results like the one above taken by Chase Jarvis can be achieved.
So how do I do it?
- Go outdoors into the bright sunlight. This trick requires a very fast shutter speed, so the brighter the light, the better.
- Twist the phone with your wrist as you're pressing the shutter. Unless it's your subject that is moving, a quick smooth twist of the iPhone is all you need. For the best results, start the twisting movement just before pressing the shutter.

Not bad for a beginner- but I need a good subject to test this on.
