Games with Fire

Games With Fire is a collective of makers who combine their skills to create awesome interactive fire projects!

Potluck’s Roots

Pot Luck has been doing projects and events together for over a decade. We started in large scale cooking projects and have more recently concentrated on art. Our members were involved with many Moonrock art projects, such as Ablation Cascade, Nozomi, and Lake Lahontan Point. Members of Potluck have also held leadership roles on many of the projects showcased on this site, such as Simon: Fire Edition 2.0, which was one of the 2015 Burning Man honorarium art projects.

We make a statement with fire! Like this one!

HellaScope Big Building

HellaScope

Prototype flame effect system that allows for on-the-fly color changes.

Carefully controlled mixtures of liquid fuels and metal salts are shot from automobile fuel injectors. Multiple injectors at an emission node allows for a complete color palette of thousands of colors. The emission nodes are placed in the corners of aluminum frames. The frames are (8' sides, 7' sides, 6' sides) that nest, visually, creating an animated bore of flame. An audience control station allows control and animation of the project.
