Burning Man 2004 Art Theme, Vault Of Heaven
I am attending Burning Man this year as a documentary representative for Glowlab, and I am excited. The 2004 Art Theme, Vault Of Heaven"will be a blend of scientific theory and artistic intuition. " (BM website) Not too many people (except for the 25,000 people last year) want to fry in the desert for a week to discover psychogeography in the deserts of Nevada, but thats why Christina keeps me on board.
Burning Man is not only creating a temporal city this year, but a temporal universe. Installations spiralling from a center point of Black Rock City conceptually address the transient nature of our existence and the things that surround us in this existence. Usually the playa transforms into a city of art for a week, which contains its own psychogeographic qualities. But this year, the focus is to the stars.
More as the time approaches.

*Sigh* You're a lucky, lucky person...i've had my eye on going to BM for the last 4 years, but i can never scrape up the cash or get the time off i need to go. I believe that this year is going to top last year (at the very least) in interactivity and more than likely attendance.
