Lightning in a Bottle! July 24th and 25th

Post by Fugazi Hobbit » Mon Jun 21, 2004 12:34 pm

The Do Lab Presents:

~ LIGHTNING IN A BOTTLE ~

July 24th and 25th


• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

Experience 24 hours of forest adventure on a 160 acre private ranch just 45 minutes north of Los Angeles.

Creating, Dancing, Discovering, Exploring, Playing, Burning!

Lightning in a Bottle began 5 years ago as a private gathering to celebrate the electrifying experience of a group of like-minded individuals discovering their shared love for music, dancing, and the wilderness, together. Each year a new location has been chosen and transformed into a sensory wonderland of music, lights and artwork – all incorporating the magical environment mother nature provides. Over the years the event has grown and this year promises to be the biggest celebration yet, as djs, performers and artists from multiple communities join to dance and celebrate the beauty within and without us all.

Catequil Area ~ Named after the Incan God of Thunder and Lightning.

Sound System provided by Virtual Climax.

Dance and sweat the night away surrounded by 8000 watts of pounding beats underneath an aluminum tetrahedron stretching 30’ above.  The 20’ octagonal dance floor will be surreally lit by 100’s of super bright multi-colored LED's.

Art Installations
We’re creating a mesmerizing wonderland for you to explore in. Upon your explorations you may stumble into some of these wonderful creations.

• "Water Woman" by Ray Cirino
For ten years Water Woman has stood on the playa facing the man. This will be a rare off-Playa appearance of the beautiful 30’ high metal sculpture. When it's hot, Water Woman’s pee is a refreshing relief from the heat. A truly transcendent golden shower.

• "Black Diamond Binary" by K'Buster F
Black Diamond Binary is a 10' sculpture made of wood and wax. During the night this sculpture will be set afire. As it burns, the wax of the sculpture will slowly melt away and take everything with it in a slow burning blaze.

• "Mushroom Tea for Breakfast Again" by Sean Sobczak
If you didn’t see the amazing Love and Sea Horses at Burning Man a couple years ago, you really missed out.  Those who remember the fantastical art car will be sure to check out Sean’s latest illuminated project designed to light up your life.

• Metal Sculptures by Christian the Black Smith
Christian will be setting up his anvil and molding metal right in front of your eyes. He will also be hosting a small clay sculpting workshop. Get your hands dirty and create something.

• 500,000 Volt Tesla Coil by Brent
Not quite as big as Dr. Megavolt but extremely shocking for a little guy. It wouldn't be Lighting in a Bottle without bolts of lightning zapping all over the place.

• Magical Glowing Trees of Scrap Metal by Peat Art
Peat Art created this fascinating field of trees out of perfect pieces of twisted metal found all around. By night, the glowing forest lights up the darkness.

• Cosmic Construction Zone by Null_a
This installation will transform the universe of a tree into a galactic star nursery.  The chill experimental beats, spinning light show, and pillows and cushions will set you free from the constraints of time and connect you with the cosmos within us all.

Other Event Features

30’ Tetra provided by Trancelvania
Hexogonal dance platform lit with hundreds of LEDs superimposed inside a two-story aluminum tetrahedron.

Bouncy Chill Area hosted by the Bouncy Bounce Club
Bounce all night on a giant air inflated bouncy thing or just chill around it in the chill out lounge. This area is going to rock. And Bounce!

Psychedelic Visuals by Love Mushroom
Love Mushroom was established in 1999 by Yo Suzuki, hailing from Tokyo, Japan.  He and his crew’s mind expanding live visuals will raise your consciousness to new levels, and they look really cool too.

Fire Performances by Ember's Passage & Inferno Flux
Ember's Passage contains a plethora of fire dancers who perform throughout Southern California.  They specialize in poi, fans, fire fingers, swords, palm torches, fire breathing, and much more! 

Inferno Flux (Dr. Magma & Lady Lava) is a duet emergence of fire and
Sensuality.  The energy that these two ignite is one of mysterious passion as they dance to the vibrations of Inferno's eternal flame.

When you bring both Ember's Passage and Inferno Flux together, you will embark on a journey that will satiate your inner yearn for the burn.

Hoola Hoopers
It wouldn’t be a party without the Hoopstars.  Admire their sensual movements, or join in on the never-ending fun that the mythic circle provides.

20’ Trampoline
Did we mention there would be bouncing?  Like Lionel Richie sings,
“Oh-oh what a feeling…”

Fire performers are welcome to bring their toys and light-up in designated fire safe areas. Please be responsible for your own fire safety, you must have a fire safety person standing by anytime you light up.

Camping is heartily encouraged. Please bring tents, sleeping bags and everything else that you think will make yours and others weekend great. Set up camp right by your car or wonder away and find some privacy. We are expecting a lot of people so arrive early to find great camping spots.

Leave No Trace are words we must learn to live by. Trash is something nobody likes. Please help keep this beautiful ranch clean by using the waste bins and picking up loose garbage. Lets enjoy a trash free environment when the sun comes up. And please pack out everything you bring in.

Weather may be cold at night as we’re in the mountains. However it will start heating up as soon as the sun reaches the horizon in the morning. Bring appropriate clothing for the entire event.

Tribal Regalia and magnificent attire are extremely encouraged. Just as indigenous tribes of our planet have done for thousands of years, it evokes purpose when we dress for the dances of ecstasy that gatherings with great music and beautiful souls inspire. Everyone has a great time decked out in wild and crazy outfits. Participate!

Carpool out to the event. Driving is more fun with friends and we need the space to dance and party. Carpool! Carpool! Carpool!
