Exploring Pyrotechnics In Art And Music

By Jeffrey Williams


When it comes to unique and unusual work, fire can often play a place. For, pyrotechnics is an area in which individuals need a lot of skill. Whereas, individuals can often also have fun simply by playing with the element, as long as done so safely. One area in which fire is at the center is in that of being a burner or fire dancer, either of which can be work or play.

When it comes to the term, the scope is much broader than fire. For, the word can relate to anything related to fire. In most cases, this includes fireworks, safety matches, oxygen candles, explosive bolts, parts of automotive air bags, gas pressure blasting used in mining, quarrying and demolition.

When it comes to entertainment, explosions, flashes, smoke, flames and fireworks are most often referred to as fire art like that which takes place at Burning Man in the Nevada desert on an annual basis. Whereas, the proximity refers to the location of a device which is being used relative to an audience. In most areas of the United States, groups and individuals need special permission and licensing to use this type of technology.

Currently, Paul McCartney has one of the biggest fire art and firework displays of any concert to date. Although, there are a number of others who also use the technology during live shows. Pink Floyd was one of the first bands to use the technology in concert in the 1980s. For, during the song, "Careful with That Axe, Eugene" smoke and ash would erupt from the back of the staging area.

In fact, groups such as The Who, Kiss and Queen have put on some of the most dramatic concerts in history by using fire. Although, it is not only rock and roll bands as seen by Rammstein, a metal industrial band which are renowned for incorporating different aspects of the technology in live shows and videos. Whereas, American pop bands Lordi and Green Day have also been using the technology.

Modern technology with regards to fire is broken into categories. Each category provides a different result when set off whether at a fireworks display or concert. In some cases, such as the finale at a fireworks show, multiple categories are used for a dramatic effect. However, it is important that producers and showgoers be extremely cautious and aware when this is the case.

When it comes to theatrical performances, most devices are used to create an effect of fire either coming out of an object. In this case, the term used to describe this aspect is known as gerb. In most cases, the use of devices in this area are often far safer than that of others. Still, even with live theater and movie productions, there can be incidents in which a fire can be started or an individual experiences a severe burn.

Regardless as to which type of device is being used, most are operated by remote control. In most cases, an individual uses an e-match or electrical charge to kick-start the device and produce an effect. Whether using this type of ignition, or a pre-programmed sequence of fireworks in different formats, most are set to music whether at a concert or professional fireworks display related to an event or holiday.
