BURN2 : Burning Man 2010

Logged into the BURN2 with my alt so that I could just manuever and teleport into the massive event. (You should have been to the real Burning Man as dust was the enemy there!)

I got there an hour early and the place was already packed and lag-o-licious. Fireworks in the sky and all kinds of beautiful particles were exploding everywhere on the four sims.

I knew I had to upload the pre-burn pictures now before I went crashola. It was inevitable as I had several windows open on my desktop trying to take pictures, blogging, uploading and blah blah blah!

I came to experience the whole thing again. Last year was incredible and I didn't want to miss this one. I'll try to load up the burn pictures as soon as I can, but I have a feeling the lag will get pretty bad once it starts!

Wish me luck!
Peace out!

burning life builders

This year, my favorite venue site was the Tokyo Stage. An incredible build of fantasy, color and even a scripted monster.





The builders brought their best in this installation. I loved strolling around the walkways that took you around the site with the overview of the entire build.





The parties were awesome with a myriad of great dj's from around the world. Partying below the looming monster encased in a capsule, the entire build felt like a sci-fi Hollywood movie set.





Another big plus were the other installations just next door. I loved the white bodies suspended in the air with a simple scripted particle twirling through the entire sculpture.





Oh, yes... had to play with the sky settings... so fun! I can't wait for 2010 on the playa for the next Burning Life! For more information on the installations, please visit the resource page for the builder's plot Camp Directory for Burning Life.

NO RACISM Project for Burning Life 2009

I was about to go to sleep, when I got the call... Mr Widget time!





The party started on the "No Racism Project" for Burning Life 2009. On a Wednesday, in the wee early morning of the day, the Burners flocked to the fire and water.











A memory is burned in my brain forever, and I wouldn't have it any other way than to have shared this with Mr Widget.





Thank you for a grand time, Mr Widget... yummy, the mash was delicious!
