Description

A performance/ installation piece by Professor George Beasley of Georgia State University in Atlanta, USA, and associates, involving a nocturnal pouring of molten iron with a rotating turntable mounted channel from the furnace to the mould, the finished casting being a curved wall shape. The channel was wooden lined to add to the pyrotechnic effect of the multiple transfers of molten metal from furnace to cast.
