Temple Burn 2024 I saw this photograph in my mind almost immediately early in the week and luckily the resulting image is exactly what I wanted it to look like! What I didn’t factor in was that crazy dust storm during the temple burn. From this extreme distance with a long lens (between the ashes of man and center camp) I could barely tell they had actually started the burn on time and the dust was already blowing like crazy. I was standing there with all my gear getting absolutely hammered by the wind and people rushing past me. Everyone was in a rush. I had all my lights on facing all directions so people wouldn’t run me over. Burners late to the burn in all forms of vehicles were passing me and going around me. It was pure chaos. I was getting destroyed in the dust and thinking I’m not going to get the shot. Then I could see an opening in the dust that was a different color of orange blowing across. Holy crap there is a gap. It’s happening! Then I had about 4 seconds as a gap in the dust moved across the burn. I banged off as many frames as I could and that was it for my temple burn. I turned around and went back to camp knowing all too well how chaotic it would be out there. I didn’t get to be part of the temple burn experience or really be part of it at all so you (and my friends who built this gorgeous temple) could have this picture. Sometimes I don’t know if it’s worth it to give up my entire burn each year to make photos for you all. But then I remember this is what I can do to contribute, and this community thrives when everyone does what they do best. Which is why I go back every year and will for as long as I’m fortunate enough to do so.
The End of Time by Andrea Greenlees and Andy ‘LostMachine’ Tibbetts @LostMachineAndy from London, UK and Reno, NV The End of Time is a dying clock, in fact it is a murdered clock. As a consequence, Time has stopped and now it will forever be Teatime. This artwork illustrates the death of one clock, which results in the death of all clocks and therefore Time itself. It does so in a whimsical manner designed to disturb but entertain at the same time. This 22-foot tall, climbable, surreal, collapsing clock has been pierced by a gigantic sword, its mechanism is broken and exposed, its numerals and hands distorted, and it has a giant Teacup and Saucer perched precariously at the top. The Teacup can accommodate 6 people at a time sitting on a circular bench in a surprisingly intimate setting. A huge, mysterious key hangs inside the clock but what is it for?

Do What You Love This burner was a having a moment of zen while standing on acupressure boards (nails I think) at the remnants of the Man Base just before the Temple Burn
Naga and The Captainess by Cjay Roughgarden, Stephanie Shipman, and Jackie Scott from Oakland and San Francisco, CA Deep in the Black Rock Ocean, treasure and cargo are streaming out of the broken hull of a ship – the Aldrovanda. The ship belongs to an adventuress, who travels the world in search of knowledge, treasure, and botanical curiosities. She ferries cargo to distant ports to fund her travels. But something has gone wrong! The ship is sinking, and looming above is a giant sea serpent, looking intently for someone or something. His name is Naga, a treasure-protecting serpent, sworn to guard something that was on the ship. Did he sink it? Or is he there to help? What will we learn about the enigmatic captain from her quarters? What stories will be told around the fires? What will we discover in the treasure chests, floating into the waves?

Sky Gazing by Patrick Shearn, Poetic Kinetics Studio from Colorado Springs, CO Sky Gazing is an aerial canopy of ribbons of colorful fabric moving dramatically with the wind, creating an illusion of a floating, dancing kaleidoscopic cloud hovering magically in the sky. Underneath, the murmuration of vibrant colors is immersive overhead, and breathtaking as it ascends to full height. Unexpectedly, the sound is gentle, like a rushing river.

Typha by Taylor Dean Harrison from Penngrove, CA Typha is a series, or grove, of sculptures rising from the ground that reflect the environment around them during the day with their mirrored surfaces. At night, they shine light and cast shadows onto the ground, creating an immersive landscape of color mixing and pattern interference.
Hey Man Are You Alive 1/2 I was riding around making photos and stumbled across this guy. I was like holy shit is that guy dead? So I went and checked on him. He was fine, just taking a rest. I asked him if I could make his picture and told him I took a picture of him when I thought he wasn’t alive. He was cool with it. I suggested he get more rest and perhaps consume a pickle.

Description from Duane’s Website: El Pulpo Magnifico stands tall at 28 feet, a colossal octopus wrought from the remnants of discarded metal and aluminum, lovingly repurposed by Duane Flatmo, Jerry Kunkel, Will Startare and his dedicated crew in the bustling heart of Eureka, California. Its gleaming skin, fashioned from the reflections of kitchenware and treasures unearthed from thrift store scores, glimmers like an explosion of diamonds against the dark night sky of the playa. Eight sinuous tentacles undulate in a hypnotic rhythm and eight eyes peer into the very soul of onlookers, El Pulpo Magnifico unleashes its fiery breath, sending flames soaring 30 feet into the heavens above. It’s a spectacle that conjures the imagery of a demented wind-up toy brought to life by a puppeteer with a love for glits and fire. Equipped with a panel of control buttons, El Pulpo dances to the beat of its own fiery heart. Turning each performance into a visual symphony of fire and motion. With 200 gallons of propane coursing through its veins, El Pulpo Magnifico chases away the chill of cold evenings, enveloping all who dare to behold its magnificence in a warm embrace of wonder and awe. https://www.elpulpomecanico.com/about.html
Henry Chang’s Flux Capacitor in the Dust Description from Henry’s website: “Take a look here at Flux Capacitor, an art car that is nothing short of epic. Measuring a staggering 38 feet long, this eight-wheel, out of this world science fiction creation towers over everything and leaves a lasting impression on all who witness its magnificence.” https://www.henrychang.design/flux-capacitor
Zozobot by Walker Babington from New Orleans, LA Zozobot is a representation of the vulnerability of human creation. It is a reminder that what we create is an extension of us and is inherently our ethical responsibility. As creators of modern technology we bear the weight of being its moral compass. We are the subject of its curiosity. Zozo’s motto is “disco a te” – which translates to “I learn from you” Contact: walkerbabington@gmail.com
Prismatic Perspectives by Alyssa Oliveira, Alpine Artists Collective from Alpine Meadows, CA A view of Prismatic Perspectives from the outside will appear to be a little house entirely made of doors and windows…but not just any doors. These doors have stories to tell. Inside, from sunrise to sunset, the installation allows onlookers to experience the magic that always surrounds them. By harnessing the power to create rainbows like never before, a not-so-fleeting rainbow covers anything in its path, creating an unforgettable moment that stays with the person long after they leave the art installation. At night black lights create a captivating kaleidoscope effect through the same prismatic windows. The artist hopes to evoke feelings of child-like curiosity and playfulness to all.

Ogoh Ogoh The Karmic Questioner by I Wayan Sunarinta and The Karma Collective from Bali, Indonesia The Ogoh Ogoh embodies the essence of karmic belief, serving as a tangible reminder of the power of compassion and empathy. It symbolizes the inner struggles faced when confronted with doing what’s right, even when it seems daunting. Amidst life’s chaos, it serves as a beacon of light, urging the embrace of both light and shadows. The Ogoh Ogoh, rooted in Balinese tradition, takes on a sacred role in cleansing the soul of negativity. It’s a profound reminder that by doing good deeds and embracing self-awareness, one can navigate life’s complexities with curiosity and grace.

Lovely Burner My good friend Jamen who is one of the most badass burners I have ever met in my 12/13 burns. Jamen is seen here pushing his trike full of camera equipment (not an ebike) on to go make photographs (and videos and hyper lapses and gigapans etc etc etc!!!) in the dust. Jamen makes all kinds of wonderful photographs and videos which he shares on his Burning Man Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/jamenpercy.burn If you use instagram he is a great follow! More importantly he is a GREAT person and and campmate. He comes all the way from Australia and just grinds and works with a joy and a smile that I could only dream of. Unfathomable rizz. He never complains no matter how destroyed he is. See you at the dinner friend. Looking forward to it already!

Love Shines Down by Aaron Cronshey from San Leandro, CA The Love Shines Down molecule will be a beautifully crafted playground of wood joinery and delightful lighting elements, both simple and complex. The piece will be approximately 18 ft long, composed of one pentagon followed by three hexagons supported by a matrix of charred timber framing work representing the carbon molecular structure. Love Shines Down is playful and approachable but provides a deeper look at a journey of discovery and new perspectives, breaking down barriers and promoting inclusion and tolerance. We hope this molecule brings smiles to faces and curiosity to minds. All interpretations are welcome, as embracing different perspectives encourages richer dialogue and connection to the piece and within the community.

Deep Playa Sunrise with Friends
Deep Playa Sunrise Life
Awake with Paraglider and Drone at Sunrise Awake is an installation featuring a colossal Eye, 100 feet wide and 60 feet tall, pulsating with video art. It stands in the open playa, gazing towards the effigy, aligning with the theme ‘Curiouser & Curiouser.’ The Eye, vibrant and intricate, unravels new mysteries daily, symbolizing awakening and interconnectedness. It serves as a metaphor for the portal to higher understanding, reflecting a collective journey towards love and enlightenment. Amidst the desert, it is a sanctuary for self-reflection, challenging viewers to contemplate their inner selves and the collective consciousness. The project merges art and philosophy, beckoning silent introspection about the role of love in transcending the ego and achieving unity. Contact: info@unnamedcollective.org
Moon and Release by Dana Albany from San Francisco Bay Area Release is a contemplative sculpture that seamlessly intertwines the female figure with the delicate symbolism of butterflies. She will be 33′ tall and emerge from an abstract chrysalis base. Crafted meticulously from a diverse array of butterfly species, this sculpture tells a profound story of liberation, metamorphosis, and the boundless potential inherent in all. Interspersed subtly in the bottom portion of the sculpture will be various mixed-metal treasures. The dynamic interplay between the female figure and the butterflies illustrates the symbiotic relationship between personal growth, transformation, and the liberation of one’s spirit. It serves as a reminder of the power gained by letting go, as the butterflies are released above. Contact: danaalbany@juno.com

Mothership Moon Text from the linked post below: This year we brought MOTHERSHIP to the playa. MOTHERSHIP is the interstellar vessel that brought the aliens of @titanicsend down to Earth. Upon arrival, the friendly aliens realized the planet was warming rapidly and created a giant synthwave iceberg to cool it down. Now, they spread their message of love by melting raver faces one at a time. It’s been a joy to create an art collective talented enough to bring a project like MOTHERSHIP to life. Hats off to @andrew_kirk for leading the project, the incredibly talented @briansmithdesign and Brooke for the concept and engineering, Eli McNutt and @keeganarthurolton for the next level lighting hardware design, the whole TE lighting team for the incredible patterns, all the volunteers who helped assemble power boxer and lighting, and the strike team that flew to Tennessee to build in the 90 degree humid summer in Brian’s backyard. We were inspired to build MOTHERSHIP after two years of having the whole TE front of house team huddled around a folding table for 12 hours during the night. We call this folding table v2.

When we find this giant shell, the exploration of the shape means walking around outside and inside the surface. The object crosses the boundary between object and environmental space. The structure is built from stainless tubes and flat stainless sheets that conform to the curved surface. Contact: stop.rewind@gmail.com

No Loitering I had a conversation with this guy about how I liked his sign and that one of the most misunderstood aspects of Burning Man is that Burning Man is hilarious. Burners have a great sense of humour. Part snark, part cacophony, and mostly just fun. Only near the end of the conversation did this burner tell me he didn’t even make the sign and we laughed at my stupidity!

Sonapse by O2 Treehouse, James Lucey, and Jameson Hubbs fromPetaluma, CA Sonapse is an immersive audiovisual temple that brings people into collective resonance. With a 12′ high gathering platform, this elevated sanctuary aims to serve as a space of respite and serendipity for travelers in the open playa. By day, it provides panoramic views of Black Rock City and a haven from the elements. At night, a multisensory composition of sound and light beckons participants into a shared meditation experience with vibroacoustic bass floor soundbaths, spatially mapped ambient music compositions, and a sound-reactive light show mapped in the kinetic LED array that envelopes the ceiling.

Radial Sonic Runway by The Runway Crew from Berkeley, CA The Runway Crew is back! The Radial Sonic Runway visualizes sound waves rippling across the desert. Twenty-five gates with LED spokes form a corridor stretching out into the open playa, through which participants can walk or bike. A microphone at one end triggers patterns of light that ripple out at the speed of sound. The original Sonic Runway, in 2003, was one-dimensional – a streak of strobe lights triggered by each bass thump. In 2016, we added another dimension – each gate was illuminated with a string of LEDs, allowing for complex patterns representing different frequencies. With this new piece, audio waves can truly reshape the space itself. As it picks up sound and music, the Radial Sonic Runway twists, pulses, and ripples to life!

Invoke The Fiery by Héloïse Roueau from Paris, France A ritual 15-foot metal portal adorned with spiderweb patterns awaits. Enhanced by a circle of lotus lace patterns, it guides participants on a transformative journey. At its heart, a suspended bell resonates with each passage under the arch. Illuminated by red light at night, it draws inspiration from Hindu Kali mythology. Participants get to shed their burdens and embrace renewal. Along the path, several metal bowls beckon. Participants can inscribe their burdens on stones before passing under the arch, accompanied by ritual sounds. A fire ritual, burning offerings on sheets, enriches the experience. Through these symbolic acts and immersive engagement, Invoke The Fiery becomes an invocation to change, urging passage and liberation from burden.

Mona Mushroom by Mona Miao He and Li Quan Sheng from Hangzhou, China Mona is an eight-meter-tall, pink metal sculpture of a mushroom that evokes a soft, organic feeling, even though it is very strong, being constructed from stainless steel. The ancient fungus, which has been living within the mycelial network beneath the playa for over a billion years, has decided to emerge from the ground this year. Through a wormhole in its stem, citizens can enter inside of the mushroom, which is made of a metal that is polished to act as a mirror, allowing participants to explore the weirdness and depth of their inner worlds. Whimsical artistic lights dancing within the mushroom and lasers outside of it transform its surrounding into a magical world. Follow the rabbit to join us in exploring this wonderful mushroom world.

The (Middle Path) Bridge (Between Heaven and Earth) by See See Kwan and the Dream Team from East Bay, CA To think about death is to think about life. The (Middle Path) Bridge (Between Heaven and Earth) is a celebration of transformation, representing the in-between transient space between Yin and Yang. It is a bridge elevated between Heaven and Earth, forever working towards balance, harmony, equanimity. It is a creative and inspiring space to practice ritual, hang out and spend time to reflect upon (pun intended). The Bridge between Heaven and Earth project gives opportunity to experience a reinterpretation of an ancient ritual practice of communication and interaction between two worlds. And to realize that life and death cannot be one without the other, that maybe death is not the end, but maybe just another beginning.

The Other, 2024 Burning Man, Man Pavilion Chosen as the 2024 Burning Man Pavilion, “The Other” by Jen Lewin invites participants into a whimsical journey of exploration and play. Featuring eight gracefully curved, canyon-shaped tentacles, this interactive installation offers stairways and ramps that lead to various vantage points. As you move through its sweeping pathways, you’ll experience the infinite possibilities of exploration, never quite reaching a destination but instead discovering the beauty of the spaces in between. Gaze outward to The Man and The City, or inward to connect with fellow explorers in this dynamic, ever-changing landscape. The concept for The Other is deliberately crafted around eight distinct tentacles, each possessing its own independent perspectives: inwards, outwards, upwards, away, and towards. Rather than fixating on a singular ‘center,’ participants are encouraged to navigate, meander, and explore each area individually, fostering a sense of discovery that would be unattainable if they were interconnected. This concept prioritizes exploration. For those inclined towards gathering, the design also utilizes negative space—the center, beneath the structure, remains open for congregation, featuring interconnected benches and seating. This aspect underscores the interplay between interior and exterior spaces. It’s about form, but equally about the spaces in between. The Other was made possible by the amazing Man Build Crew, and their talented and incredible build team. Lighting Design and light animation made possible by the amazing talent of @ Mark Slee. https://www.jenlewinstudio.com/portfolio/the-other/

Naga and The Captainess by Cjay Roughgarden, Stephanie Shipman, and Jackie Scott from Oakland and San Francisco, CA Deep in the Black Rock Ocean, treasure and cargo are streaming out of the broken hull of a ship – the Aldrovanda. The ship belongs to an adventuress, who travels the world in search of knowledge, treasure, and botanical curiosities. She ferries cargo to distant ports to fund her travels. But something has gone wrong! The ship is sinking, and looming above is a giant sea serpent, looking intently for someone or something. His name is Naga, a treasure-protecting serpent, sworn to guard something that was on the ship. Did he sink it? Or is he there to help? What will we learn about the enigmatic captain from her quarters? What stories will be told around the fires? What will we discover in the treasure chests, floating into the waves?

From the Temple to Center Camp
The King by David Posner from Charlottesville, VA The King is a geometrically shaped, octagonal King Chess Piece of monumental scale. The King is designed to express the shortcomings and follies of contemporary power dynamics and gender roles.

Matter Out Of Time by MJ and Colin, Glass House Arts from San Diego, CA Time machines? They sound like theremins. That’s the rule. Matter Out of Time (MOOT) appears as a giant, shiny, spiky ball, partially embedded in the playa. The aluminum tubes span some 25 feet, but are surprisingly easy to climb. Inside the ball you find a captains’ station, controls, and screens, but nothing seems to be working. You activate the initiation sequence, and the machine, with a thump and a flash, comes alive! A video appears on the screen in front of you, and the controls are flashing, so you reach forward, and eeeeeooooouuuuuuummmmmm Is all of this a step towards a real time machine? Well, there’s definitely been a clear progression through time… URL: https://www.deldiosglasshouse.com/moot Contact: art@deldiosglasshouse.com

Those Feet I was walking around making photos and all of a sudden a foot was touching my cheek. I was like what the hell?! I turn around and some burners are playing with these incredibly lifelike fake feet. I just hope they weren’t used for naughty weirdness before they grazed my cheek! Haha!

Man with a Violin I happened upon Carl Cox at Playground and I’m just enjoying the incredible energy of the place. This random guy walks up to Carl while Carl is performing and he gestures to his violin. Carl is like huh??? This guy someone manages to convince Carl to let him plug in and then proceeds to absolutely shred along with Carl Cox and is lifted up by the crowd. It was such a fun and positive moment. Shout out to Carl for being open to play and collaboration and to this guy for the extra fun vibes.

Another Level Have you ever met a burner who just seems to be operating at another level. David here seems gracefully glide from one issue to the next with elegance and grace handling whatever comes up. From an a photographer showing up to discussing menu options for the hotel guests to literally performing a show on stage in front of hundreds of burners. There are some burners who just operate at another level. A level of excellence and joy that is frankly astonishing and hard to comprehend. When I’m out there I feel like a bit of a disheveled mess struggling to get everything done, but David here is just on another level! Thank you David for all you do.

Moop Trophies I think this is a brilliant idea. Turn regular camp moop collections into publicly visible displays somehow. This was deep in the back of Ashram Galactica. To be clear, this camp is MASSIVE and has huge shows and parties. This MOOP was NOT from the people who are actually part of the campt, it’s the huge crowds of daily visitors to this remarkable camp. Perhaps there is a more elegant way to make these displays of moop to incentivize our community to clean up more so resto has an easier job? Moop as trophy?!

METAHEART by Johnny Crash from Marshall, NC METAHEART is mirror-clad, three dimensional sculpture that rises 23′ from the ground, reflecting the love and energy of the community. Three arching stainless steel arms form a heart motif, and at it’s center hangs a rotating structure in the ancient geometric shape of a Metatron’s cube. METAHEART invites the viewer to reflect on and expand beyond the confines of their heart. By looking inward, we see beyond ourselves and our perceived constraints to connection. The piece symbolizes the discovery of love, for the self and others, in every axis and plane, across time, space and infinity. Contact: heyjohnnycrash@gmail.com

Alice, Bonnie, and Kerry atop The End of Time by Andrea Greenlees and Andy ‘LostMachine’ Tibbetts @LostMachineAndy from London, UK and Reno, NV The End of Time is a dying clock, in fact it is a murdered clock. As a consequence, Time has stopped and now it will forever be Teatime. This artwork illustrates the death of one clock, which results in the death of all clocks and therefore Time itself. It does so in a whimsical manner designed to disturb but entertain at the same time. This 22-foot tall, climbable, surreal, collapsing clock has been pierced by a gigantic sword, its mechanism is broken and exposed, its numerals and hands distorted, and it has a giant Teacup and Saucer perched precariously at the top. The Teacup can accommodate 6 people at a time sitting on a circular bench in a surprisingly intimate setting. A huge, mysterious key hangs inside the clock but what is it for?

Coney McConeface: The Life and Death of a Traffic Cone by Chris “Kiwi” Hankins, ConeCophony Collective from Dargaville, New Zealand and Reno, NV Coney McConeface is a larger than life traffic cone. At 60 feet tall he will tower over the playa. He is painted in bright safety orange and reflective silver bands. He has steam rising around and through him. This steam is coming from a crack in the playa caused from geothermal activity deep below the surface. Coney has been built on top of this geothermal activity to project the citizens of Black Rock City from falling into the cavity and and being injured or burnt. Coney is a symbol of safety and protection, an image we all very familiar with in our day to day lives…traffic cones are everywhere… URL: https://www.conecophony.com/

Tree Circle by Eira Mooney and Alquem from Växjö, Sweden and Bogota, Colombia The sudden realization that you are intrinsically and ultimately connected to everything. That you are insignificantly small in the context of infinity, yet you are infinite. In those moments, we are home. The Tree Circle reminds us of those who were here long before our grandparents were born, and who will stand tall long beyond the passing of our children. Roots anchored deep into the ground and branches reaching tall. Nature’s majesty in co-creation with human hands. Natural bamboo form seven tree trunks, hollow as if burnt from the inside. Like fractals, each trunk creates a circular space within themselves, and together, a circular open space, all bathing in a soundscape of deep primal frequencies promoting collective coherence.

Sky Gazing by Patrick Shearn, Poetic Kinetics Studio from: Colorado Springs, CO Sky Gazing is an aerial canopy of ribbons of colorful fabric moving dramatically with the wind, creating an illusion of a floating, dancing kaleidoscopic cloud hovering magically in the sky. Underneath, the murmuration of vibrant colors is immersive overhead, and breathtaking as it ascends to full height. Unexpectedly, the sound is gentle, like a rushing river.

Naga and The Captainess by Cjay Roughgarden, Stephanie Shipman, and Jackie Scott from Oakland and San Francisco, CA Deep in the Black Rock Ocean, treasure and cargo are streaming out of the broken hull of a ship – the Aldrovanda. The ship belongs to an adventuress, who travels the world in search of knowledge, treasure, and botanical curiosities. She ferries cargo to distant ports to fund her travels. But something has gone wrong! The ship is sinking, and looming above is a giant sea serpent, looking intently for someone or something. His name is Naga, a treasure-protecting serpent, sworn to guard something that was on the ship. Did he sink it? Or is he there to help? What will we learn about the enigmatic captain from her quarters? What stories will be told around the fires? What will we discover in the treasure chests, floating into the waves?

CC Does an Extremely Thorough Pre-Flight I have flown with a bunch of different pilots over the years and the pre-flight check CC conducted here was by FAR the most thorough and diligent. This is probably because CC is an advanced flight instructor and an incredible pilot. That and this was his first flight that day if memory serves. Thank you for taking me up flying with you CC.

Organic Study No. 4 by Luis Varela-Rico from Las Vegas, NV and Guadalajara, Mexico Organic Study No. 4 is a large-scale steel sculpture that is a clear celebration of Mexican culture. It draws inspiration from Dia de Los Muertos, the Catholic church, and colonialism. It includes an upside down cross in the archway. It acknowledges the history of colonization and its negative impact on the global community. OS No. 4 challenges the status quo and makes an argument that we don’t need to subscribe to dogmatic belief systems to accept each other. The piece uses historical and cultural references to remind people how beautiful we can be if we base our behavior from a place of love instead of greed or fear.

The Other, 2024 Burning Man, Man Pavilion Chosen as the 2024 Burning Man Pavilion, “The Other” by Jen Lewin invites participants into a whimsical journey of exploration and play. Featuring eight gracefully curved, canyon-shaped tentacles, this interactive installation offers stairways and ramps that lead to various vantage points. As you move through its sweeping pathways, you’ll experience the infinite possibilities of exploration, never quite reaching a destination but instead discovering the beauty of the spaces in between. Gaze outward to The Man and The City, or inward to connect with fellow explorers in this dynamic, ever-changing landscape. The concept for The Other is deliberately crafted around eight distinct tentacles, each possessing its own independent perspectives: inwards, outwards, upwards, away, and towards. Rather than fixating on a singular ‘center,’ participants are encouraged to navigate, meander, and explore each area individually, fostering a sense of discovery that would be unattainable if they were interconnected. This concept prioritizes exploration. For those inclined towards gathering, the design also utilizes negative space—the center, beneath the structure, remains open for congregation, featuring interconnected benches and seating. This aspect underscores the interplay between interior and exterior spaces. It’s about form, but equally about the spaces in between. The Other was made possible by the amazing Man Build Crew, and their talented and incredible build team. Lighting Design and light animation made possible by the amazing talent of @ Mark Slee. https://www.jenlewinstudio.com/portfolio/the-other/

Rose by Rob Loucks from Ukiah, CA The Queen of flowers has arrived on playa ready to party. During the daylight hours, Rose quietly soaks up the rays of sunlight. When the sun goes down, she lights up the night with an interactive light show. You may attract her attention with sound vibrations or pressing her buttons just right.

The Teetering Trail of Tooter by Robert and Penny Cox from Kalama, WA The Teetering Trail of Tooter is a musical trail in the desert bringing fun and joy to all who enter. Lining the trail are a series of handmade cedar lamp posts and a row of wooden organ pipes atop a wall of art and curiosities. The pipes bring music and delight to all who walk on the teetering trail.
El Pulpo Magnifico – The King of Kings Description from Duane’s Website: El Pulpo Magnifico stands tall at 28 feet, a colossal octopus wrought from the remnants of discarded metal and aluminum, lovingly repurposed by Duane Flatmo, Jerry Kunkel, Will Startare and his dedicated crew in the bustling heart of Eureka, California. Its gleaming skin, fashioned from the reflections of kitchenware and treasures unearthed from thrift store scores, glimmers like an explosion of diamonds against the dark night sky of the playa. Eight sinuous tentacles undulate in a hypnotic rhythm and eight eyes peer into the very soul of onlookers, El Pulpo Magnifico unleashes its fiery breath, sending flames soaring 30 feet into the heavens above. It’s a spectacle that conjures the imagery of a demented wind-up toy brought to life by a puppeteer with a love for glits and fire. Equipped with a panel of control buttons, El Pulpo dances to the beat of its own fiery heart. Turning each performance into a visual symphony of fire and motion. With 200 gallons of propane coursing through its veins, El Pulpo Magnifico chases away the chill of cold evenings, enveloping all who dare to behold its magnificence in a warm embrace of wonder and awe. https://www.elpulpomecanico.com/about.html

Mars Molecules by Mars-1 from San Francisco, CA This installation will be two sculptures, one titled “Molecule #3” which is 9′ in diameter, and another called “Strobilus,” which is a large-scale, 13-foot-tall bronze piece inspired by the pine cone, a symbol of the third eye. Throughout history and across many cultures, the pine cone has represented enlightenment and the blossoming of imagination. I hope this conveys the symbolism to the viewer as an embodiment of limitless capabilities, with its interconnected woven spirals hinting at the infinite possibilities of the human imagination.

The Oasis (70s living room in Deep Playa) This was a cool space that was out near the trash fence. It was open to the trash fence so you had to go out and explore to see what was inside. Nice place to take a rest. There is a post on reddit here about it: https://www.reddit.com/r/BurningMan/comments/1f8qbs5/stories_from_the_oasis_70s_living_room_in_deep/

Hortus Lux by Eric Sagotsky from Los Angeles, CA Inspired by succulents in the arid desert, Hortus Lux is a restful oasis by day and an invitation to play by night. Each of the five woven hammock leaves accommodates two. (This may look like just some cool chairs but there was a whole audio and vibration experience that was incredibly soothing. I felt way more relaxed after. The vibration was unlike any I have felt. It was so organic it felt alive. Great job Eric!!!)
Lovely Burner We had a very long discussion. It was a wonderful break for me and we went from complete strangers to friends in this moment. In fact this might be the first time I have ever photographed the exact moment I became friends with someone.
Temple of Together by Caroline Ghosn and Temple Crew The Temple of Together is about the light that emerges when we come together with all parts of ourselves and with the oneness we share with every other living being.

METAHEART by Johnny Crash from Marshall, NC METAHEART is mirror-clad, three dimensional sculpture that rises 23′ from the ground, reflecting the love and energy of the community. Three arching stainless steel arms form a heart motif, and at it’s center hangs a rotating structure in the ancient geometric shape of a Metatron’s cube. METAHEART invites the viewer to reflect on and expand beyond the confines of their heart. By looking inward, we see beyond ourselves and our perceived constraints to connection. The piece symbolizes the discovery of love, for the self and others, in every axis and plane, across time, space and infinity. Contact: heyjohnnycrash@gmail.com
Hábitat by Mark Rivera aka Kidnetick from Santurce, Puerto Rico A habitat is where an organism lives. The goal of Hábitat is to show the beauty of coexistence and community through a sculpture thats feels like it is a living organism, breathing and thriving when whatever is living inside can live together in peace.
The Other, 2024 Burning Man, Man Pavilion Chosen as the 2024 Burning Man Pavilion, “The Other” by Jen Lewin invites participants into a whimsical journey of exploration and play. Featuring eight gracefully curved, canyon-shaped tentacles, this interactive installation offers stairways and ramps that lead to various vantage points. As you move through its sweeping pathways, you’ll experience the infinite possibilities of exploration, never quite reaching a destination but instead discovering the beauty of the spaces in between. Gaze outward to The Man and The City, or inward to connect with fellow explorers in this dynamic, ever-changing landscape. The concept for The Other is deliberately crafted around eight distinct tentacles, each possessing its own independent perspectives: inwards, outwards, upwards, away, and towards. Rather than fixating on a singular ‘center,’ participants are encouraged to navigate, meander, and explore each area individually, fostering a sense of discovery that would be unattainable if they were interconnected. This concept prioritizes exploration. For those inclined towards gathering, the design also utilizes negative space—the center, beneath the structure, remains open for congregation, featuring interconnected benches and seating. This aspect underscores the interplay between interior and exterior spaces. It’s about form, but equally about the spaces in between. The Other was made possible by the amazing Man Build Crew, and their talented and incredible build team.

AlchemEyes by House of Fabl, Hunter Leggitt, Jonathan Berry & PhotonicBliss from Denver, CO Where eyes become the window to the cosmos and the neural pathways become millions of shooting stars. As we untether from the fixed reality of the default, we can reach up and touch the infinite. Large eyes look out over the vast expanse of the playa, and as they perceive, the neural synapses fire in unimaginable beauty. A child’s imagination can transform a sandbox into a spaceship or an ocean-bound vessel. Might we pause convention and take a journey down the rabbit hole? Liberation lies in curiosity; soften your vision and allow yourself to expand beyond the predictable. URL: https://www.houseoffabl.com/ Contact: contact@houseoffabl.com

Beacon by David Oliver from Ventura, CA A pillar reaching into the sky twenty-four feet. Dressed with three illuminated stained-glass Tiffany style “Collection Pan” lamps up high, and topped with a highly reflective steel alloy “Beacon Ball” that measures two feet in diameter. Shadowed light runs vertically below the lamps on the main body tucked neatly inside the applied steel tubing called, “Transfer Pipes”. Four louvered panel “Exhaust Fins” are also internally illuminated, emit smoke (fog), and act as feet to support this towering structure. All steel components of project Beacon are to be of a metallic finish ranging from aluminum to copper. URL: https://www.facebook.com/groups/511422599441315/

Ultimately, it conveys the joy in moving forward. Contact: simon2588@gmail.com

That you are insignificantly small in the context of infinity, yet you are infinite. In those moments, we are home. The Tree Circle reminds us of those who were here long before our grandparents were born, and who will stand tall long beyond the passing of our children. Roots anchored deep into the ground and branches reaching tall. Nature’s majesty in co-creation with human hands. Natural bamboo form seven tree trunks, hollow as if burnt from the inside. Like fractals, each trunk creates a circular space within themselves, and together, a circular open space, all bathing in a soundscape of deep primal frequencies promoting collective coherence.

The King by David Posner from Charlottesville, VA The King is a geometrically shaped, octagonal King Chess Piece of monumental scale. The King is designed to express the shortcomings and follies of contemporary power dynamics and gender roles. We want the citizens of BRC to first be inspired by the scale and construction of the piece. Then, as they explore and inhabit the spaces, we hope to invoke thought and discussion around the roles we play and the ways we participate in contemporary patriarchy. We believe that these roles are damaging to all people, and we aim to create an approachable platform for that idea to be shared. URL: https://thekingburns.weebly.com/ Contact: posner.david@gmail.com

Finding the Light by Kevin Necessary from Bend, OR The art installation “Finding the Light” consists of 3 large steel and stained-glass monoliths. They are strategically placed on playa with exact distances from each other and perfectly aligned with the sun. As the sun heads to the west, the shadows and colors of the stained glass begin to elongate and interact with the playa surface. The monoliths alone are abstract geometric forms which can be explored and interacted with throughout the day. Twice a day, sunrise and set, the long shadows from the monoliths and colors from the stained glass will form a beautiful church on the playa surface. An 8′ high observation deck with a preacher’s podium, perfectly placed for the sunset shadow, will be placed on playa as well. Contact: necessaryphoto@mac.com

Release by Dana Albany from San Francisco Bay Area Release is a contemplative sculpture that seamlessly intertwines the female figure with the delicate symbolism of butterflies. She will be 33′ tall and emerge from an abstract chrysalis base. Crafted meticulously from a diverse array of butterfly species, this sculpture tells a profound story of liberation, metamorphosis, and the boundless potential inherent in all. Interspersed subtly in the bottom portion of the sculpture will be various mixed-metal treasures. The dynamic interplay between the female figure and the butterflies illustrates the symbiotic relationship between personal growth, transformation, and the liberation of one’s spirit. It serves as a reminder of the power gained by letting go, as the butterflies are released above. Contact: danaalbany@juno.com

The Purple Unicorn by Smilee Barnacle from Oakland, CA Only the pure of heart can approach the fearsome unicorn. The mythical beast is rearing up on its back legs as if it is in moment of passion, pausing to give us a tempting glimpse, knowing that we can never catch them. It is an apparition of love, a beautiful hallucination, a good luck oasis. The unicorn’s horn possesses magical powers of healing and the ability to neutralize poisons and heal sickness. Rearing up on its hind legs, paint shimmering in the sun, the Purple Unicorn is here to bless the citizens of Black Rock City with Sweet Unicorn Magic.

AlchemEyes by House of Fabl, Hunter Leggitt, Jonathan Berry & PhotonicBliss from Denver, CO Where eyes become the window to the cosmos and the neural pathways become millions of shooting stars. As we untether from the fixed reality of the default, we can reach up and touch the infinite. Large eyes look out over the vast expanse of the playa, and as they perceive, the neural synapses fire in unimaginable beauty. A child’s imagination can transform a sandbox into a spaceship or an ocean-bound vessel. Might we pause convention and take a journey down the rabbit hole? Liberation lies in curiosity; soften your vision and allow yourself to expand beyond the predictable. URL: https://www.houseoffabl.com/ Contact: contact@houseoffabl.com
Celestial Syzygy Garden by Shane and Toby Robinson and Family from Dolan Springs, AZ You spot two large Saguaro cacti and an apparatus rising up from the landscape. Approaching, you find stunning, beautifully realistic Saguaro, Ocotillo, Organ Pipe, Joshua Tree, Prickly Pear, and Barrel cacti in a circle around a massive swinging platform. Swings, benches, and posts make an octagon shape with light “stars” hanging above. Surfaces of the swings, benches, and posts have sun, moon, star, and deity cut-outs with lights inside. You rest and interact with other Burners; at first sitting by yourself on the benches revitalizing your soul, then lounging on the swings intermingling with all. Laying on the large swing with Burners, all the stars above and lights shining through the metal cut-outs is magical and you feel at peace!

Coney McConeface: The Life and Death of a Traffic Cone by Chris “Kiwi” Hankins and the ConeCophony Collective from Dargaville, New Zealand and Reno, NV Coney McConeface is a larger than life traffic cone. At 60 feet tall he will tower over the playa. He is painted in bright safety orange and reflective silver bands. He has steam rising around and through him. This steam is coming from a crack in the playa caused from geothermal activity deep below the surface. Coney has been built on top of this geothermal activity to project the citizens of Black Rock City from falling into the cavity and and being injured or burnt. Coney is a symbol of safety and protection, an image we all very familiar with in our day to day lives…traffic cones are everywhere… URL: https://www.conecophony.com/

Fintastic School of Art by Dan Barnes, The Tinkers Knot from St. George, UT The oceans and the winds are a large part of the world around us. A school of fish swimming in the ocean are never still, always shifting, always moving, always swimming. This school of playa land fish rely on the wind to give them motion. As long as the wind blows and shifts, they are forever changing direction and moving as a school.
