I?m not gonna be able to finish these questions, so I?ll give brief answers to a few more.
25. Talk about burning man and you.
Burning Man is an event for radical self expression. 30,000 artists go to the Nevada desert and share their gifts. Dance, paint, music, hugs, cooking, performance, massage?whatever. The point is that there are no spectators at this event. Everyone is expected to participate and make the event better for everyone else.
The people who go are the most vibrant and full of life that I have ever met. The art people create is mindblowing. There is no commerce or commercial brands allowed at the event. The degree of freedom one experiences there is hard to explain. This year will be my 8th year making the pilgrimage.
Burning Man changed my life.
