Recent experiments Ive been doing with various types of glass in a microwave. These tests began as an investigation into the possible physical byproducts produced by ball lightning, a phenomenon where witnesses describe spontaneously appearing mobile orbs of electric light. Some reports claim serious damage induced by ball lighting, from breaking through windows and doors to violent explosions. One attempt at explaining this phenomenon involves a self contained electric field close to the region of microwaves.

i'm imagining a regular microwave but i'm probably wrong, even still, sounds like there could be some interesting color/light coming from waves on the glass that could be filmed.
it seems as though ball lighting from the research i just did, not much, hasn't been documented very well. also bordering on the "i saw an alien" phenomenon which leads me to think that in creating the pieces you might be able to create the documentation that describes the mystery of it.
also i must mention fulgurite came to mind as i started looking at your description.
Loving the microwave experiments. Have youseen the results of lighting leaving its mark on sand? Check out fulgerites. Lance
Im glad the fulgurite connection is clear, I should mention these experiments stem from previous work of mine inspired by fulgurite formation. http://brettswenson.com/volcanic_glass.html
