Fractal wood burning is a process of applying an electrically conductive solution on wood, water, for example, and then applying high voltage electricity through a transformer using two probes. When this electricity is applied, it burns in the wood from one probe to the other. The figures that are created are commonly called Lichtenberg figures or fractal burns. These burns create a lightning like image that is burnt into the wood. Here, a probe tip burns bright red as the current runs through to the treated surface of this deep slab of wood. The black Lichtenberg lightening or tree-like patterns are visible.
