Yeah, It was sad when we heard about the hanging over there, but somehow it didnt change the vibe, maybe to those who saw him got a little affected.
This year was different than others as others have been different to others, it is never the same, that was some older burners were telling me.
The burn of the man was sick, was on monday during the lunar eclipse, and because of that, the saturday burn of the man was huge. Also add a meotor shower, the double rainbow after a dust storm, that blew me away. haha Some one was screaming that the burning man was gay. Anyway, yeah there were some incindents, but they were minimal compared to the good vibes and love that was going around.

Sounds like a fabulous time. I'm very jealous. How was the art? did you participate in anything? did you do or make anything?

Has anyone even considered that this actually may have been a ambitious piece of performance art?

what killing yourself. thats not very ambitious if you ask me. i mean its been done and its not like hes leaving us with anythign to think about. killing himself was his own deal. maybe it was his own artistic desires that drove he , or maybe it was a chemical inbalance or ven mor likly chemical injestion

Really hope this doesn't effect future burns. Like someone said, its not impossible for the site to get closed off. I've always wanted to go but haven't had the chance yet.

The art was mindblowing check some videos on youtube, those guys from the thunderdome were intense, there was an incident of a girl in a suspension on bungee cords, she was jumping off the floor, guess what, the hooks ripped her skin open and she took a dive to the ground, there is a video of it, i dunno if it is online.
Aninator, the whole place is full of art, it is impossible to check everything. There was this camp that had a dance dance inmolation set up, you play ddr with those suits that protects from fire and while playing the give a shower of fire. Good times.

Worst year ever to go to Burning Man. And to think - this is the first year that I seriously considered it.
Not at all. I had a great time. The lunar eclipse was amazing. The surprise burn was exciting and it was fun to watch them respond quickly and put out the fire. Fantastic art, mutant vehicles, amazing experiences and people. Absolutely awe-inspiring fireworks, burns, explosions and fire performances. The huge dust storms were exciting too.
Also, if you read the posts on tribe (and probably elsewhere) by people that were actually around for the suicide, you'll get a different story.
