Thank You Dorothy 😘
Thank you Dorothy for continuing to allow me to come out to the burn. Thank you for holding it down so the community could have these images and I could refill my creative tank. I love you very much!

More Thank Yous
Thank you: Sarge, Mr. Wonderful, the ~~Adoraboys~~ Ragamuffins, Scott, Jeremy, and the rest of our camp. Thanks as well to Greg and the Altitude Lounge crew. Also special thanks to whomever made that Black Rock Dessert Camps site. Seeing that map really confirmed my decision to take part.

Shout Outs
Shout out to the entire Burning Man community for doing it mostly right. All things considered, that went off very well for an organic self organized Free Burn/Renegade/Plan B/not Burning Man.

Thank you for including me!

Keep Burning Man turbo-weird and potentially fatal!

See you next year.

Next year was better?

Rough Year

It was a tough year out on the playa but the art was like totes amazing. I really struggled this year to make it happen. Between the global pandemic, wearing a mask 24/7, and the heat, it was just a slog to make all these photos. I was pretty tired coming into the burn but I tried my best as usual. The photos are mostly in reverse chronological order. If you look at the filename it will tell you the date.

Music

I think you need to be signed in to Spotify (on the web) and have shields down on yur Brave Browser to listen right here. For some reason the player wont get any bigger than the box below so you might have to open the playlist in a new window.

Rough Shape
Raising two small children is taking a toll on me. My kids are now 2 and 4 years old and I’m pretty much exhausted all the time and I’ve gained quite a bit of weight. So I started the 2019 Burn mentally fried, physically exhausted, and totally out of shape. I also injured myself just before the burn. I reached back behind the passenger seat of my car to lift a very heavy camera bag (duh!) and destroyed my forearm. Something pulled or tore in my right forearm and it hasn’t been the same since. Fun! When I arrived on playa after driving over 2000 miles in an RV I was in pretty rough shape. So bear with me.

Wifi is Stupid
I had the brilliant idea of running a Wifi network for my camp this year. In previous burns I had wasted lots of time seeking connectivity to send an ALL OK message back and forth to my family home. So I did what you do, I built a bigass wifi network. I then opened the network to everyone in the spirit of radical inclusion. No password or captive portal or anything. (Just throttled speed) The network performed well thanks to the work of the Burning Man IT team and my friend Sarge. That said, it was shocking to see how quickly people went from being thrilled to find out they have connectivity to complaining about it. The network would sometimes be down early in the morning when I wasn’t even in camp (batteries would run down at night) and folks would bug me about it upon my return. The last thing I wanted to do was deal with tech support when all I wanted was rest. At peak there were 131 devices connected to my network at any one time. The most essential use of the network (other than me talking to my family) was a person who used the network to call Switzerland. This person’s mother had recently gone into hospital and had been diagnosed with Cancer. Some people were people streaming Netflix despite me asking them not to abuse the network. They then wondered why they got blocked. You give an inch…

Tried My Best
What follows is the best I could do given the state of my mind and body. I hope it’s enough. I worked for the entire burn so the Burning Man community could enjoy these images.

Wait HALP!
I tend to make lots of mistakes here with captions and I would be really appreciate any comments (very bottom of page) or direct emails telling me how about it. For example you could tell me the names of various unknown pieces or art. Or just how I’m doing it wrong. I will then update this post to reflect your comment or email. Just copy the link to the photo or email the photo to me so I’ll know which photo you’re talking about.
