Burningman 2004

 

2004 was a very dusty year at Burningman.  Parked on the playa ramp were approximately 100 aircraft ranging from two-seater bi-planes to jets.   Pilots joined the 30,000+ attendees who arrived in cars, motorhomes and every imaginable type of vehicle.  

 

 This years theme "Vault of Heaven" was thought provoking and lended itself to some very interesting interpretations.  The questions that were posed this year were "Where does everything come from? Where does everything go? And where and how, in this vast scheme of things, do we fit in?"  Theories of physics and metaphysics melted together in a sea of questions. The "Man" was positioned above a large observatory  delicately blending scientific theory with artistic intuition.
  
   
 
 
 

 The 2004 strong winds were relentless.  Within hours of arrival, windstorms turned everything a light shade of grey. My REI tent (which has held up well during extreme  conditions) was bowed to the point of permanently bending the poles. Miraculously, they didn't break.

Burningman is an event that cannot truly be expressed in words...it must be experienced.
