The Flame Effect of Theseus

A spider missing half its legs? Something out of an industrial facility, pipes and tanks and metalwork? Spaceship fuel tanks getting ready for launch? This is an eight headed flame effect built on a wide angled base, 100lb propane tanks tilted towards the sky and reinforced in metal framing. The wide base allows participants to lie on the ground and look up at the sky while fire circles overhead. You get to control it, too.

Flame Effect Walkthrough

Interested in learning the basics of how flame effects work? Have questions about how we're burning a few hundred pounds of propane in a couple hours each night? You'll get better answers during the day when we're not in the middle of running a camp full of fire and sound. Get a full back of house tour of our flame effect systems and ask any questions you have about gas plumbing, fire safety, flamethrowers, etc.

Flame Effect Control Systems Walkthrough

Maybe you were just here for the flame effect walkthrough, maybe you have an idea for a project and just want to know how you can control fire? Join us for a tech-oriented walkthrough of the hardware, software, and firmware used for controlling our flame effect projects. Experience with these things is helpful but not required.
