The fire sculpture sounds actually quite nifty. Here in the North, in Ely,
Minnesota, there's a long-established snow sculpture event that leads to much
cameraderie among artists, reputedly (I've never taken part, but plan to
someday--)

Remember in Caesar's _Gallic Wars_, his account of the Celtic solstice ceremony
that involved building giant wickerwork human figures, with captives woven into
them, that would then be burned?
