My SIXTH sojourn to the Burning Man festival – not quite a “festival” – more so a human laboratory, this experiment in community, radical self-expression and radical self-reliance. The photos provide only a very flat glimpse from my one perspective, akin to the difference between seeing a photo of the Grand Canyon or standing in it – but even more so because of the possibilities created by the elements of nature, art, and human community for one week.
This year there were around 50,000 very different intense experiences at Black Rock City.
Traveled from Vermont with Pam and Bruce. Returned to staying with PolyParadise.
