Sparkle Poi

Yet another fire-experiment. We created some sparkle poi by attaching burning steelwool onto a chain and spinning it fastly. There are many pictures like this on the internet, but I’ve never seen variations on spinning pattern. You always see a round circle in the middle. One of my other hobbies is “Poi Spinning” and this inspired me to experiment with different patterns. I invited Wijnand Buijs to do the spinning because he’s much better at it then I am. The reason why you never see these patterns (antispin flowers) with burning steelwool is because the sparks make an upward movement at the center of your body.
