LOST: TrackStick GPS device

I lost my TrackStick on the playa. Probably somewhere around my camp at 4:00 and Coral Reef, but it could be anywhere.

The TrackStick is two shades of brown, and about the size of a Mars Bar.

This was the core of my art project. It basically records your physical location on the planet, at pre-set intervals. You can then put that information into GoogleMaps to see a path of where you have been.

My intent was to publish my history at BurningMan in 1-minute intervals. This would allow me to map every camp I visited, every art installation I visited, etc. The amount of space I covered between log entries would also tell me how fast i was traveling, and I could tell if I was walking, on a bike, on an art car, etc.

Unfortunately, my TrackStick is gone. Lost to the dusts and winds of the Playa.

If you find it, please let me know! I don't want to publish my email address here, but I am the Marketing Manager and Web Dude for Utilikilts. So you can find me all over the Utilikilts web site.

Thank you so much!
