This Just In from Burning Man 2013

Post by justinreach » Sat Oct 05, 2013 3:10 pm

Hello Burning Burners who Burn on Message Boards between Burns -

I have a great number of friends and family who are curious about Burning Man. So I made a video to describe why I go to this arts festival in the Nevada desert.

Using footage from my camera, footage from a drone over Burning Man, and footage recorded against a green screen.

I posted it on the http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKCh3BgZ ... sppAnxP6ez YouTube:

Big thanks to all them humans who made that event great, and Eddie Codel who put a camera on a drone and published the footage free online - thanks!

The man spinning in a hoop is from Lucent Dossier circus - that happened the night of the Burn and it was wonderous.

Camp Green Home hosted me; I included footage from Taylor Skillin's compilation of timelapse from our camp GoPro "meet me by the trash fence" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NosXmFt_4DY

I followed a Marching Band around the playa and they kept the dusty boogying. I believe they might be the March Fourth Burning Man Marching Band, if they have any name at all. Their music liberally seasons this film, gracias! Burning Man is otherwise dominated by amplified music (as you probably know if you participate in these forums).

My first Burning Man was in 1994; I have some writings up about my BM experiences over the years here: http://links.net/vita/sf/burnman.html

Good video. Made me a bit dizzy watching it as it was panned to fast in some parts!
Sometimes I'm confused by what I think is really obvious. But what I think is really obvious obviously isn't obvious.

Was that your camp with the slack line and the dome with the silks in it? I was camped across the street.
Savannah: I don't know what it is, but no thread here escapes alive. You'll get 1 or 2 real answers at minimum, occasionally 10 or 12, and then we flog it until it's unrecognizable and you can't get your deposit back.

Fun to see your experience!! If you'll take a look over at the "lost humans" board, one of my camp mates is looking for one of your camp mates! Your camp mate would play the accordion throughout the day, but it was especially nice to listen to in the morning. I'll try to find the link, as well. :D

We were across the street at Dye with Dignity.
