will the glass cools off that fast? I’m not quite sure. If you pull it away too fast away from the heat source, would those dropping class swing a little? Than those drops would not be that straight! There must some special technique. What we we saw were the product. Very interesting! I’m so glad you posted. I had a chance to see some thing I had never seen in in life.
Thank you! Donna.

It’s pretty incredible. From what I’ve read, she makes a kind of table top, then suspends it in a furnace and uses steel rods to pull down the tentacles. I couldn’t find any video, but here’s a photo of her working. https://i1.wp.com/media.boingboing.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/daniela-forti-02-600×401-1.jpg?resize=600%2C401&ssl=1

My question was how could the melting glass be frozen while it was dripping? The picture shows melting!

I would guess the further away from the heat source you pull it, the faster it cools, right? I’m guessing here.
