I believe the famous GE World's Fair exhibition had a 3 phase jacobs ladder.

I've seen one on a smaller scale (3 pole pigs) but it was a "parking
lot lashup" and not a permanent thing

No reason why it wouldn't work.

Consider, for instance, the "horns" in Clarke's "Rendevouz with Rama"
if you want some artistic inspiration



Ahhh...imagining that irresistible "new car" smell?
