Nebula Conference

Fire spinning and object manipulation are beautiful art forms that can evoke strong visuals and themes, but how do you write about it? What kind of equipment do performers use? How do fire spinners react when their clothing catches on fire? Why would performers choose to do this? We'll cover a little bit of everything, including the essentials of fire performance safety, how performers choose tools, fire-friendly costuming, and the history of the art form. Attendees will have a chance for some hands-on (non-fire) experience with object manipulation toys.
