When you have to bring on a finance and communications director, I think the movement is over! lol..

Remember when it wasn't a commercial opportunity, you were greatly discouraged from using a camera. Remember when they cleaned up after themselves?

This is so phenomenally well done! I've been going to Burning Man since 1998 so naturally when I arrived everyone told me I'd missed it. I love the fact that it doesn't seek to make the Borg seem like idiots or hypocrites but does point out many of the inherent contradictions that emerge when an art movement succumbs to what Hakim Bey, author of TAZ, the quintessential book on Temporary Autonomous Zones, once referred to as Institutionalitis.

To me Jerry James is not written out of the history. He gave me a little photo of the first man he built. I'l always cherish it. He's the kindest soul and I dont let people forget who he is

Leave no trace. Except for the fuel spent driving and flying. The bikes and trash to name a few.

It was more fun on Baker Beach in the 80s. Like the Ren Faire, it's become a commercial hustle.

I first went in 2015, was inspired to make a big art project, then in 2016 didn't get a ticket. Went in 2017, was again inspired to make an art car, 2018 could not get a ticket. Went in 2019, inspired again to make a giant art project, then 2020 event canceled because of covid. Everyone welcomes you home, but its not home if you can only get a ticket every other year. Home is somewhere you can ALWAYS go. When I dont get in, I go somewhere new in the world. Kyoto, Japan, 1200 temples, no one burns them. Much more spiritual. Lake Tahoe, free camping, lots of trees and water, no fire dancers, but more spiritual.

Drones and high-tech art are the future of " burning man" . No need for so many flammables especially in the desert. The idea behind the event is awesome and I hope to participate one day ❤.

So Good. Thank you for making your full length film available for all to see. <br>It brings forward and honors the OG creators, the DNA, perspectives and back stories that would IMHO enrich the experience of anyone who started to go after 2007, or who are planning to go for the first time. Bravo!
