Re: FUNDRAISER: Genome Laser collaboration with Control Towe

While no one wan...

Re: No grant??? NO SURRENDER!!!!
Thank you Savannah, Junglesmacks, Tom - we too think that a) this is awesome and b) that we can just drag it kicking and screaming into "reality" by shouting at it really hard.... We didn't get a grant either in 2010, but that didn't stop us building one of these: http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5172...

Re: Need tips building a 30 ft wooden octogon
Amen Brother, sing it!But you should engage an SE just so you can sleep. The wind really kicks up, and it can become a fucking nightmare in far less time than it takes you to understand it has become a nightmare. Belt and suspenders. No injuries or death.

Re: Tsound Tsunami / Synthetic Silence

Never say never, most of the big sound operators are reasonably cool people ...

the artery will NOT let you build a bar/pub in the open playa, no matter how epic and artlike it is. Trust me on this, its been tested many times, so you should think instead about requesting esplanade placement.
just sayin'

Hey Everybody... After much planning, scheming, toiling, pleading, and even some standing on soapboxes with megaphones, the Megatropolis crew has raised just over 20,000 dollars to fund our dangerously ambitious project. Yet, although we hope to raise even more over the coming few months with two fu...
