This is only the rambling of my perverted pyromaniacal brain, but has anyone
ever tried manipulating clay at high temperature? Poke it/bash it after it
has softened? Would this look any different from manipulations performed at
more sane temperatures?

Hi Bruce,
I have never tried it, but I had heard of it being tried...
I was told that at those temperatures it is kinda
rubbery...one may leave marks of sorts, but too, knocking
something over is also a possibility when reaching in there
through a peep-hole or other to jab or poke at them.
