Cork pieces as medium

General question: has anyone experimented with using cork as a medium? I have a Cattleya peckhaviensis x schilleriana, and due to this variety's need to dry out quickly after watering, I was toying with putting it in a wood basket with cork chunks (approx. 1.5" wide) as the only growing medium. I'd be interested to hear others' thoughts.
