I've started using Hamada pours again recently. It's very simple--hold
a cup of glaze tight against a pot and pour quickly- and it makes a big
smooth curve with a hole in the glaze under where the glaze cup
contacted the pot. Done authoritatively it looks swell--if you
hesitate it looks like a dog peed on it.
Does anyone know if this is really a Hamada innovation, or perhaps a
folk decoration?

Is what you are describing to hold the cup against the pot. tip the cup up so
that the glaze comes out of both sides of the cup at the same time but not out of
the middle that is against the pot?
