 The purpose of the conductive metal and mineral arrangements is for the synthesis and creation of custom fulgurites. When lightning strikes a sandy soil or a beach, the lightning bolt's path into the earth can sometimes transform any silica based minerals into glass like tubes, called fulgurites; the conceit of this project is that other minerals can be entrained in the molten silica as the strike hits the substrate, thus creating new crystal geology.These new crystals are then available for further investigation and use (for example, through Kirlian photography).

 ''Mundane creation of artifical fulgurites. Using a bucket of sand (recovered from the nearby Rendlesham Forest, Suffolk, site of an infamous UFO incident in the 1980's) as the substrate, an embedded “trench” of the minerals derived from computers was made and lightly covered with the sand. One exposed end of a high voltage cable was loosely fixed to one end of the trench whilst another similar cable was attached to a piece of wood; both of the cables exited from a 9 kilowatt 25 milliamp neon light transformer. Once the current was switched on an arc was drawn across the mineral and sand trench by judiciously holding to the cable end attached to the wood and then drawing back from near the other fixed cable end in the trench. As a result small dark and fragile mixed “new crystal” fulgurites were formed''
