You mean the fire and smoke? If so, then, YES! Isn't it cool? The barrels are full of newspaper, which rapidly cools the molten glaze, and the smoke permeates the unglazed parts of the clay. The resulting pieces (which I really should have better pictures of) look really interesting, with metallic parts, irridescent parts and matte black parts.
