Hey folks – I just got back from Burning Man & as usual it was a BIG time. I had a lots of fun & some not-so-fun as is my usual at BM. I am left with some pretty interesting thoughts/questions (some even disturbing) & some fantastic images.
As usual, the thing that makes Burning Man the most worthwhile for me, is the creativity:
- Dance Dance Immolation by Interpretive Arson – when Dance Dance Revolution meets Burning Man. Ridiculously fun. (big thanks to my friend Nina at the DDI camp!) – for those of you who don’t know what Dance Dance Revolution is, click here

We spent a lot of time trying to come up with the right word & eventually settled on “exquisite” – a quality you rarely find on the playa. (see the video below)
- Why ride solo when you can ride tandem… with a partner ON FIRE. (see the video below)
- The Big Round Cubatron by Network Wizards: My wee video doesn’t do this justice, but the cylindrical array of LED ping pong balls was beautiful, elegant, fascinating and inspired. The more you watched, the more you wanted to. (Thanks for tracking down the name & link Bob!) (see the video below)

- Dancing my ass off at The Deep End. At least it was good techno 🙂

A big shout-out to Camp Run-Amok for letting me be a part of their troop.
