    I make plenty of mistakes when posting so many photographs like this. FWIW I post so many because I can never predict how or why an image my be meaningful and we have infinite space here on the internet. But when I post so many images it’s almost impossible to get all the captions correct, so I always appreciate any comments (very bottom of page, waaaaay down below) or direct emails helping me fix my mistakes. You can email me ( DuncanRawlinson@gmail.com ) to tell me how I’m doing it wrong or where the mistakes are. I will update this post to reflect your comment or email. Please include lots of detail and any relevant links. Please copy the link to the photo or email me the photo so I know which photograph it is.

    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?

    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

    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.

    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.”

    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”

    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!

    This burner said he didn’t want the hassle of registering with the DMV so he attached this wagon to his ebike. As a fellow giant bike enjoyoor I can totally get that. He really wanted to show me his lasso skills as well. The other burner he was with was happy to play along.

    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.

    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.

    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?

    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. Scroll all the way right to see folding table v1.

    Participants Grab an Elevated Spot for the Man Burn atop Shell by Colin Bowring “Wizard” from Oakland, CA

    Shell is a sculpture about scale and how usually when we find a shell on the beach we can pick it up to inspect it and look at its unique shape. 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.

    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.

    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.

    Down the Rabbit Hole by Darrell Ansted and Katie D’Arcangelo from Boulder, CO

    Down the Rabbit Hole is a 10′ tunnel of steel rings, each 8 feet in diameter, aglow with LED lights leading to a 10-foot tall, polygon-faceted rabbit of reflective stainless steel on a LED interactive floor, dancing to the rhythm of sounds. The installation is a beacon of invitation, reflection, and chromatic bursts. The metaphorical “Down the Rabbit Hole” invites a journey into the unknown, igniting curiosity and discovery, urging them to shed the constraints of time and societal norms to embrace the joy, play, and wonder of exploration. It’s a celebration of art’s transformative power, uniting people in wonder and play.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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?

    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.

    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…

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.

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.

    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…

    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 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?

    First Ever Mutant Aircraft and FAA Approved Laser-light and Fireworks Show From an Aircraft
    Love the Fake Bullet Hole Aesthetic
    Fireworks For an Airplane

    When I heard someone had created the first ever mutant aircraft and that it had fireworks and lasers I had to check it out. Here is a test batch of the fireworks CC created. These are not the fireworks he used in production but this gives you an idea of what they’re like. CC was great to collaborate with despite him being under pressure to get everything done.

    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. It was amazing.

    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.

    Reddit user messagefromsatan explains: “That yellow flag means it is an Accessibility Vehicle. If you look closely behind the bikes, there is a sticker on the back as well. They are for folks who qualify for a disability placard on their vehicle in real life.”

    What’s The Story

    I’m just curious about these vehicles. Are they just rogue vehicles out there? They’re not LEOs or mutant vehicles but I sometimes see them and I’m like man it would be way easier to get around in that!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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:

    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!!!)

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

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…

    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.

    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.

    Down the Rabbit Hole by Darrell Ansted and Katie D’Arcangelo from Boulder, CO

    Down the Rabbit Hole is a 10′ tunnel of steel rings, each 8 feet in diameter, aglow with LED lights leading to a 10-foot tall, polygon-faceted rabbit of reflective stainless steel on a LED interactive floor, dancing to the rhythm of sounds. The installation is a beacon of invitation, reflection, and chromatic bursts. The metaphorical “Down the Rabbit Hole” invites a journey into the unknown, igniting curiosity and discovery, urging them to shed the constraints of time and societal norms to embrace the joy, play, and wonder of exploration. It’s a celebration of art’s transformative power, uniting people in wonder and play.

    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.

    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.

    Typha by Taylor Dean Harrison from Penngrove, CA

    A Basic Bench by Daniel Paster from Boulder, CO

    A Basic Bench is constructed out of 4″ curved steel I-beam tunnel ribs repurposed from the construction of tunnels, rough-cut wooden timbers, waxed canvas tarps, and memory foam futons. The tunnel ribs are stacked and connected in a manner creating a three-story curved structure comprised of three partial circles. The curved nature of the form lends to a feeling of fluidity, while its sheer weight presents a feeling of solidity in space.

Inside are writings about and drawings representing the condition of Dissociative Identity Disorder (Multiple Personalities)

    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?

    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.

    Burner Industrial Dome by pretty good collective from Boston, MA

    The goal of this project is not just repurposing objects commonly found in any camp you wander into, but expanding their purpose while at the same time aiming to strengthen and expand our community.
    In November the bins and other useful building materials will be made into care packages/starter kits to hand out to new burners, needy burners, or just anyone who thinks they may find use in the staples. Those receiving the bins will receive an excellent starting point for checking out our vibrant community as well as receive meaningful messages making their bins more personalized and special. In the future the cycle can begin again as the bins/straps/zipties are easy to replace.

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.

    Regardless of cultural or geographical boundaries, all people feel joy, sadness, anger, fear and love – these are the emotions that make us human. “I’m Fine” speaks to a situation familiar to all of us, when we automatically respond with “I’m fine” to the question “Are you ok?” even though we might be feeling pain, anxiety or confusion deep down.
    This piece particularly resonates with Ukrainians who continue to face daily challenges both personally and as a nation. Yet this story is universal and relatable to everyone on the planet.

    Do You Need a Ride?

    I asked this young man if he needed a ride because he was carrying this heavy tote by hand. Turned out he needed to walk literally from one side of the city to the other. So I tossed him onto the back of my giant ebike (OMG ebike? the horror!) and gave him a lift. He may have perished in the sun otherwise lol. Godspeed young man. He was one of two people I drove across town on the back of my bike. The other guy was carrying ice above his head and needed to go from Artica to the edge of the the city where the airport road begins. I just happened to be headed that way so I drove him out there on the back of my back. Whenever I do this the people are always like holy shit this is WAY farther than I thought it would be and they thank me profusely. I tell them to pay it forward and help others in the community and so it goes.

When I asked to make her photograph she tried to step out and had to squeeze her wonderful hat through the doorway. We both chuckled. I said you look beautiful and she wasn’t ready for that. Then I made this picture. Sometimes when I’m making portraits of people I will say something to remove the metaphorical shield people hold up around a camera. Sometimes I say something goofy or try to get the subject to think about something deep or that they love. Whatever I can come up with to remove the shield and see them as they are.

    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.

    Rotations of Time is a series of three pinwheel clocks that move in measurement of the ways we perceive our greatest measurement of life.
    Time. Is time an illusion? How is it relevant? What would you request of it? Father Time stands on the pinwheel clock with a commanding presence. Its pillar adorned with watch faces in tribute of those loved ones whose time has come to pass.
    The tall clock moves us fast as the wind blows, spinning the colorful pinwheel as it changes time with each rotation. Slowing us down, and then stopping time when in a place of peace. The “real time” clock ticks, and turns, as it marches to time that is steadfast. Carrying us through life so we can connect in “real time.” Then there is flying time, blurring its’ colors and blinding us to the present moment as we become lost in our pursuit to slow it down.
    As a tribute to those who have gone before us, what’s to determine a life well lived or lost too soon? By the time lived, or by the amount of life lived?
    Rotations of time will travel around the west coast with the support of volunteers, honorably ending near the Temple.

    *If you, or someone you know, would like to include a watch face of a loved one who has passed, send this artist an email for a mailing address before 8/15/24 or leave it on the structure and it will be respectfully included.

    CONFLUIR by Constanza Castaño from Santiago, Chile

    CONFLUIR is the result of different suggestions of contrasts: interior and exterior, appear and camouflage, rigid and malleable, reflect and veil, environment and detail.

    Its distorted reflections embody the contexts that surround it, including the spectators who inhabit it. By concentrating on its outer and concave side, the protagonist of your mirror is an image more similar to the real one, slightly deforming any information that surrounds it. On their interior and convex faces, the prisms produce an abstract result, fragmenting everything we observe into small parts.

    Fire performer at El Diabla by Iron Monkeys from Seattle, WA and Reno, NV


    On the first Monday of the event Crimson Rose extracts a flame from the sun to light a fire in El Diabla, a special cauldron located in Center Camp. For the flame to continue burning it must be stoked, disturbed, and kept alive throughout the entire week. We encourage all those that encounter El Diabla to help keep this flame alive.
    H E A R T H by McKenzie Genin and The Green Bucket Lab from: Woodside, CA

    HEARTH is an expression of ambivalence and symbolism, the individual and interconnectedness, with a strong emphasis on the duality of human and planetary experiences. Exploring themes of healing and destruction, liberation and confinement, and the complex interplay between these elements. HEARTH encourages a shift in perspective from the individual human experience to a broader, collective and planetary viewpoint. In essence, the philosophy of HEARTH is to use ART as a vehicle to explore the nature of individual and collective human existence and its intricate relationship with the planet, acknowledging the ambiguity and tensions that arise as we grapple with these complex emotions and challenges.

    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.

    The Speed of the Earth by Kevin Kelly and David Rumsey from San Francisco, CA

    The streaking visualization of the Earth’s rotation will be visible from any angle on the playa. However, the ideal angle for maximum effect is neither head-on nor perpendicular, but viewed at an oblique angle. The location of Speed of the Earth will therefore run from the trash fence directly towards the Temple (see map) at an oblique angle to the main city. This light course will span just 800 feet shy of a mile. Each run will last 4.5 seconds, and will recycle every 15 seconds. The virtual speed of the streaking lights will be 784 mph. The placement of the lights will enable this phenomenon to be seen almost anywhere along the esplanade, or in the outer and deep playa.

    I’m Fine :) by Oleksiy Sai from Kyiv, Ukraine

    Regardless of cultural or geographical boundaries, all people feel joy, sadness, anger, fear and love – these are the emotions that make us human. “I’m Fine” speaks to a situation familiar to all of us, when we automatically respond with “I’m fine” to the question “Are you ok?” even though we might be feeling pain, anxiety or confusion deep down.
    This piece particularly resonates with Ukrainians who continue to face daily challenges both personally and as a nation. Yet this story is universal and relatable to everyone on the planet.

    Liberty by Michael Benisty

    Life is Amazing

    In 1996, I read an article in the nascent Wired Magazine about a strange event called Burning Man. I was fascinated and decided in that moment that one day I would go to Burning Man. I was 16 and very much alone. It took me 16 more years before I had my shit together enough to make it out to Black Rock City in 2012. Fast forward to 2024, and I had a chance encounter with Kevin Kelly on the playa. As many of you know, Kevin who was one of the founders of Wired Magazine itself. Had he not started that magazine you wouldn’t be here right now looking at this and my life would have been much worse. Kevin is somewhat of a renaissance man and he has this remarkable ability to forecast what’s going to happen in technology as well. If you have any interest in technology, art, and or just Cool Tools, then go and learn from Kevin at KK.org Kevin was just as charming, friendly, and down to earth as you’d hope. He even let me take his picture in very this very harsh light.

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.

    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!

    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!

    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?

    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.

    The Bug Mutant Vehicle Ignition Sequence

    Burners are amazing. When this mutant vehicle begins to move it has an incredible audio soundtrack playing that sounds like a legit NASA Go/No-Go poll. The sound is incredible and it takes off smoke and all. So fun and so cool! Great job team!
    Enjoy The Show

    I wasn’t able to find the names of the people who made this wonderful movie theatre with rows and seats and popcorn that tasted exactly like movie theatre popcorn. I enjoyed this very much thank you! Great movie too!

    Reclamation of a Stolen Heart by Bronze Holbein and Strength in Numbers Collective from Martinez, CA

    Reclamation of a Stolen Heart will act as a beacon to those who seek peace for their hearts, offering them a place to congregate and inviting them to reflect on their heart’s path toward healing.

    The 10′ tall heart sculpture will be adorned with various kinds of reclaimed scrap metal that will incorporate different interactive and kinetic features to capture the curiosity of its viewers. A heart-shaped bench will spread out from the sculpture’s base and surround a heart-shaped bonfire pit, allowing guests of the installation to take a moment to rest their weary legs and warm up before venturing off on their next adventure.

    Various colored LEDs will light the sculpture at night.

    Playing Chase

    This was an adorable moment. This father and son were playing chase and running through a large crowd of burners on bikes and into a clearing. The little boy was running away, dad was playing chase, and I was chasing them like an absolute weirdo to make these pictures. Thankfully dad was ok when I asked if I could make their picture.

    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.

    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.

    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…

    Banana for Scale by Caroline Kamm from Brussels, Belgium

    The banana is used online as a universal measuring stick, to provide a concept of scale when photographing objects. Banana for Scale plays with the disorienting size and contrasting visual cues of Black Rock Desert, by placing a massive inflatable banana on the playa. This enormous banana offers little to no real visual information, and that’s the point!

    Banana for Scale celebrates the importance of silliness in our lives and work as artists. It also highlights one of the unique challenges of making art for Burning Man: everything looks small in the expanse of the desert. This piece intentionally pokes fun at the conundrum of perspective on the playa, as well as the seemingly arbitrary choice of using a banana to demonstrate scale.

    Forest of Confusion by Forest of Confusion from Denver, CO

    A group of Colorado Blue Spruce trees, with a central clearing, where participants can wander between the trees. Twenty-five trees make up the grove, and they will be spaced out in a way that obstructs the central clearing from the outside.

    During the night, the networked trees will light up together in a blue spruce color. The trees will be proximity-sensored, and the participants will have to interact with each tree to unlock a new color pattern. After a set amount of time, the tree color patterns will time out and revert to a solid color. If participants activate every tree before the time runs out on any of them, they will unlock the full forest grove of patterns.

    I’m Fine :) by Oleksiy Sai from Kyiv, Ukraine

    Regardless of cultural or geographical boundaries, all people feel joy, sadness, anger, fear and love – these are the emotions that make us human. “I’m Fine” speaks to a situation familiar to all of us, when we automatically respond with “I’m fine” to the question “Are you ok?” even though we might be feeling pain, anxiety or confusion deep down.
    This piece particularly resonates with Ukrainians who continue to face daily challenges both personally and as a nation. Yet this story is universal and relatable to everyone on the planet.

    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.

    Mokosh Temple by Hania Abramowicz from Warsaw, Poland

    In Mokosh’s realm, we seek to find,
    A union of hearts, of like-minded kind.
    The goddess of life, of earth and of care,
    Guides our journey, with love to share.

    In her sacred womb, a temple stands tall,
    With an empowering center, defying all.
    A symbol of freedom, of strength and of grace,
    Inviting expression in this hallowed space.

    Here, hearts beat in a rhythmic dance,
    In a spectacle of light, we’re lost in trance.
    Each pulse, a note in a symphony grand,
    Uniting us all, hand in hand.

    As day turns to night, the temple glows,
    In the heart of Mokosh, our collective heart shows.
    The beats of life, the soul’s gentle call,
    In this magical space, we are one and all.

    In the heart of Mokosh, our spirits soar free,
    In this temple of wonder, our unity we see.

    The (Im)possible Dialogue by Jean Collin-Satre, Ben Pitzer, FAFA Camp from Poissy, France and Oakland, CA

    The installation is a circle of big heads, reminiscent of a blend between Stonehenge and Easter Island. Each head is fixed on an axis and turns 360 degrees. They are likely to be facing different directions, hence having an impossible dialogue.

    When someone approaches a head, they hear some gibberish or white noise. When the head is turned on its axis, the sound changes, like when you are searching for a certain frequency on a radio tuner. As you turn the heads toward the center of the circle, the sound becomes a clear note. Similarly, the color of the light inside the head changes and becomes brighter.

    Once the heads are all facing each other, a burst of light arises, as well as a magnificent chord composed by the respective notes of each head.

    Greed is a twenty first century, larger-than-life winged gargoyle, perched on top of the earth and lording over humanity. Greed depicts the ageless crisis of individuals, institutions, and countries striving for power and control at the expense of humanity and our environment. As the viewer stands in front of this frightening monster, we are faced with multiple mirrors on its chest that reflect, in part, both the problem and the solution to the crisis—us. Our goal is to generate anger at what is happening in our world today, such as oppression, exploitation, predatory violence, institutional greediness, and environmental degradation. Next, to spark introspection and self-reflection about how we contribute to the problem through insatiable consumerism.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    CONFLUIR is the result of different suggestions of contrasts: interior and exterior, appear and camouflage, rigid and malleable, reflect and veil, environment and detail.

    Its distorted reflections embody the contexts that surround it, including the spectators who inhabit it. By concentrating on its outer and concave side, the protagonist of your mirror is an image more similar to the real one, slightly deforming any information that surrounds it. On their interior and convex faces, the prisms produce an abstract result, fragmenting everything we observe into small parts.

    Sky Gazing by Patrick Shearn, Poetic Kinetics Studio from: Colorado Springs, CO

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.

    The Actual Robot Heart Lineup

    In the lead up to Burning Man 2024 a controversial call was made to encourage large sound camps to publicly announce who would be playing. Some say this was to encourage people to buy more tickets since the event did not sell out. Some camps followed the directive and posted who would be playing. Robot Heart posted their lineup but in a cryptic hangman puzzle which was mostly blank. This was a fun joke and a little poke at the org. So it was quite funny when I just happened to be on the spot when they actually filled out their real lineup on the playa. You can see the aforementioned cryptic “lineup” at the link below. Props to Gary and Ben!

    Burning Man Is Hilarious

    One of the most misunderstood parts of Burning Man culture is how funny it is. The culture makes fun of itself and authority figures in good spirit. For context Marian is the CEO of this whole thing and some random staff were wearing these pins around. I have it on good authority that the person who made the pins didn’t give one to Marian but Marian emerged wearing one the first time the pin maker saw Marian. Nicely done Marian!

    Polychroma (build week) by In Theory Art Collective from Huntsville, UT

    Polychroma is an iridescent LED rainbow with interactive cloud pillars and relaxing benches. Citizens of BRC can lay awash in the beauty of the full-color spectra here and belly flop into the concept of ‘polychromatism,’ which is an expansive, subversive, heterogeneous way of thinking, being, understanding, and relating to others that cultivates beauty, diversity, strength, fulfillment, justice, and planetary health. It is set in contrast to ‘monochromatism,’ a limiting, black-and-white, homogenous, conventional way of thinking, being, understanding, and relating to others that leads to domination, weakness, boredom, injustice, and social, personal, and ecological disease.

    Down the Rabbit Hole by Darrell Ansted and Katie D’Arcangelo from Boulder, CO (build week)

    Down the Rabbit Hole is a 10′ tunnel of steel rings, each 8 feet in diameter, aglow with LED lights leading to a 10-foot tall, polygon-faceted rabbit of reflective stainless steel on a
    LED interactive floor, dancing to the rhythm of sounds. The installation is a beacon of invitation, reflection, and chromatic bursts.

    Down the Rabbit Hole by Darrell Ansted and Katie D’Arcangelo from Boulder, CO (build week)

    Down the Rabbit Hole is a 10′ tunnel of steel rings, each 8 feet in diameter, aglow with LED lights leading to a 10-foot tall, polygon-faceted rabbit of reflective stainless steel on a
    LED interactive floor, dancing to the rhythm of sounds. The installation is a beacon of invitation, reflection, and chromatic bursts.

    The Speed of the Earth by Kevin Kelly and David Rumsey from San Francisco, CA (build)

    The streaking visualization of the Earth’s rotation will be visible from any angle on the playa. However, the ideal angle for maximum effect is neither head-on nor perpendicular, but viewed at an oblique angle. The location of Speed of the Earth will therefore run from the trash fence directly towards the Temple (see map) at an oblique angle to the main city. This light course will span just 800 feet shy of a mile. Each run will last 4.5 seconds, and will recycle every 15 seconds. The virtual speed of the streaking lights will be 784 mph. The placement of the lights will enable this phenomenon to be seen almost anywhere along the esplanade, or in the outer and deep playa.

    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.

    I’m Fine :) by Oleksiy Sai from Kyiv, Ukraine

    Regardless of cultural or geographical boundaries, all people feel joy, sadness, anger, fear and love – these are the emotions that make us human. “I’m Fine” speaks to a situation familiar to all of us, when we automatically respond with “I’m fine” to the question “Are you ok?” even though we might be feeling pain, anxiety or confusion deep down.
    This piece particularly resonates with Ukrainians who continue to face daily challenges both personally and as a nation. Yet this story is universal and relatable to everyone on the planet.

    The World Reimagined by Project Aikido x The World Reimagined from London, UK

    Eight globes measure 5.5 feet tall and 4.6 feet in diameter. Each globe has been individually curated by a different artist and embodies The World Reimagined themes of: Mother Africa; The Reality of Being Enslaved; Stolen Legacy: The Rebirth of a Nation; Abolition & Emancipation; A Complex Triangle; Echoes in the Present; Still We Rise; Expanding Soul; Reimagine the Future; and Community.

    The World Reimagined is built on the belief in the transformative power of art: to inspire, to move, and to open our imagination to new possibilities. Project Aikido was created to showcase all aspects of African culture, creativity, and technical skills of the underrepresented, both on the continent and in the Diaspora.

    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.

    Rushmore by Mr and Mrs Ferguson Art from Alameda, CA

    Here are North America’s top animal predators presented in poses similar to the Mount Rushmore carvings of four famed United States presidents. For our animal carvings, we will employ using coins in concrete to create the color and dimension of fur. The effect has the charm of being tactile and durable for many to enjoy.

    When the participant first sees this project they likely will see the Mount Rushmore comparison. Mount Rushmore’s reputation is an impressive tribute to the U.S. presidents who formed this nation; and in being that they are cut from stone, only makes their legacy seem indelible. Our substitution with predators should also create that legacy impression.

    Banana for Scale by Caroline Kamm from Brussels, Belgium

    The banana is used online as a universal measuring stick, to provide a concept of scale when photographing objects. Banana for Scale plays with the disorienting size and contrasting visual cues of Black Rock Desert, by placing a massive inflatable banana on the playa. This enormous banana offers little to no real visual information, and that’s the point!

    Banana for Scale celebrates the importance of silliness in our lives and work as artists. It also highlights one of the unique challenges of making art for Burning Man: everything looks small in the expanse of the desert. This piece intentionally pokes fun at the conundrum of perspective on the playa, as well as the seemingly arbitrary choice of using a banana to demonstrate scale.

They even have labels on their clothes and tools. I have removed the labels in this photo so as not to doxx them. I wasn’t sure if they wanted their names out there… These folks were kind setting up lights to demark internal roads and paths for the epic AEZ.

    Spiral of Secrets by Oz Wilcox from Richland, WA

    SOS consists of four spiraling hallways that converge into a central atrium. The atrium holds a large cocoon, which houses a small kiosk where new secrets may be submitted. The piece will present old secrets via diorama peepholes, printed booklets, and sound collages. Old secret cards will be presented as paper mache attachments flanking the atrium and the entrances. The cocoon also hides a steel helix-shaped sculpture that will be revealed during our OF1 burn. The walls will be painted in abstract swirling spiral-galaxy style, at the direction of muralist CaroCaro. The layout of the piece is designed to create a giant fire vortex when burned, using the passageways as air channels.

    Twenty years on the playa for BlinkingManCamp97. This year’s project is #13 on the deep playa trash fence. Art 20 – Years will have about 70 tennis rackets with unique, repurposed and recycled folk art pieces attached to them. Many will have art from contributors ranging in ages from 6 to 80’s. Each piece windgineered to produce no MOOP! Your ride along the fence will be more fun than a barrel of playa chickens. More fun than Eggs Bar – well a close second. But you will definitely be smiling and enjoy the efforts of many different artists. And of course the usual yard sale and thrift store gems given a new life in the sun wind and dust (maybe a bit of rain too). Art 20 at the trash fence – It’s not just for breakfast any more!

    Mercurialosity by Michael Emery from Santa Cruz, CA

    “Picture yourself in a boat on a river”, or a bicycle on a dry lakebed, laughing and playing as you cantor around the Black Rock Playa.
    Look over there! Something shiny!
    Approach it!
    We dare you.
    As you get closer you will notice the shiny thing gets very intricate, a steel onion dome shape with a fractal pattern cut into it, creating a 3-dimensional steel doily.
    Come in closer, it’s talking to you. What is it saying? Where is it leading you?
    “Turn off your mind, relax and float downstream.”

    Big Spinning Wheels by PDA from Roxbury, NY

    Prepare to embark on a journey of contemplation and creativity with Big Spinning Wheels. More than mere sculptures, BSW stands as a beacon of meditative art, meticulously crafted to ignite inspiration and evoke introspection.

    Nestled at the bounds of BRC and the limits of reality, BSW offers a sanctuary for thought and reflection amidst the cacophony of the desert. Here, at the edge of the known and the unknown, BSW invites participants to explore the depths of their imagination and the vast expanse of their inner landscape.

    But what exactly is BSW, you ask? Well, that’s the beauty of it—open to interpretation, these magnificent creations defy categorization. After all, beauty lies in the eye of the beholder.

    Patience is a virtue.

    Polychroma (build week) by In Theory Art Collective from Huntsville, UT

    Polychroma is an iridescent LED rainbow with interactive cloud pillars and relaxing benches. Citizens of BRC can lay awash in the beauty of the full-color spectra here and belly flop into the concept of ‘polychromatism,’ which is an expansive, subversive, heterogeneous way of thinking, being, understanding, and relating to others that cultivates beauty, diversity, strength, fulfillment, justice, and planetary health. It is set in contrast to ‘monochromatism,’ a limiting, black-and-white, homogenous, conventional way of thinking, being, understanding, and relating to others that leads to domination, weakness, boredom, injustice, and social, personal, and ecological disease.

    Coney McConeface: The Life and Death of a Traffic Cone (build week) 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…

    Nebula Shroom Grove by Understory Collective from Bogotá, Colombia and London, United Kingdom

    Nebula Shroom Grove is a creative art installation that tackles the theme of loneliness despite our hyper-connected world. Drawing inspiration from the solitary, yet interconnected life of mushrooms, Nebula uses modular parametric structures to mimic these natural networks. Each module serves as a mini-shelter, complete with a cozy resting area on top, inviting visitors to relax and connect.

    Through its design, Nebula cultivates a sense of community, encouraging social interactions, and sparking discussions around the crucial role of our personal networks and the sense of community offered by Burning Man. This installation not only highlights the contrast between isolation and connection but also celebrates the strength found in our communal bonds.

    METAHEART (build week) 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.

    Radial Sonic Runway (build week) 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!

    Lost in Thought by Matthew Schultz from Somewhere sunny with a workshop and some water

    Lost in Thought is a life-sized sculpture of a person meditating, with the layers of self splitting away like the leaves of a lotus flower to reveal a skeleton in repose. Lost in Thought is a simple project inspired by the challenging conditions from Burning Man 2022 and Burning Man 2023 and the feelings that I struggled with while trying to find joy in suffering. Lost in Thought is made of blown playa dust sculpted onto a simple recycled metal frame and is meant to decay into just the skeletal frame underneath as the week goes by.

    Rushmore by Mr and Mrs Ferguson Art from Alameda, CA

    Here are North America’s top animal predators presented in poses similar to the Mount Rushmore carvings of four famed United States presidents. For our animal carvings, we will employ using coins in concrete to create the color and dimension of fur. The effect has the charm of being tactile and durable for many to enjoy.

    When the participant first sees this project they likely will see the Mount Rushmore comparison. Mount Rushmore’s reputation is an impressive tribute to the U.S. presidents who formed this nation; and in being that they are cut from stone, only makes their legacy seem indelible. Our substitution with predators should also create that legacy impression.

    Glimmer by Iron Monkeys from Seattle, WA

    Glimmer is a grand crown made of steel vines, vibrant resin and steel flowers, and colorful gems. Inside the crown a fire pit and benches invite people to pause, observe, and consider the reality around them. At night gems will glow and points of the crown will ignite, creating a spectacle of light and heat.

    H E A R T H by McKenzie Genin and The Green Bucket Lab from Woodside, CA

    HEARTH is an expression of ambivalence and symbolism, the individual and interconnectedness, with a strong emphasis on the duality of human and planetary experiences. Exploring themes of healing and destruction, liberation and confinement, and the complex interplay between these elements. HEARTH encourages a shift in perspective from the individual human experience to a broader, collective and planetary viewpoint. In essence, the philosophy of HEARTH is to use ART as a vehicle to explore the nature of individual and collective human existence and its intricate relationship with the planet, acknowledging the ambiguity and tensions that arise as we grapple with these complex emotions and challenges.
