    Burners in Space! Meet Spaceman Sam

    Remember that whiteout in deep playa? That prepared you for a NASA mission to space, maybe. Andie Grace talks with Samuel M. Coniglio, aka Ranger Spacecat, and Spaceman Sam. He isn't just a ten-year Black Rock Ranger and a veteran of the legendary Neverwas Haul (that three-story Victorian house on wheels)... He’s a writer, inventor, and futurist who worked on the Space Shuttle and the ISS. From his Zero-G cocktail glass, to his book about making offworld living worth living, he studies creature comforts in extreme environments.  Stuart Mangrum opens the show with a look at the Lunar Codex, an ambitious project placing the art of 50,000 Earthlings (including Burners!) into permanent archives on the Moon. Then, Sam and Andie spacewalk into why "civilizing a barbaric situation" is a human need, whether its serving fancy tea in a mud storm, or grilling chicken on a space station. Hear about radical self-reliance, orbital infrastructure, and why—if we’re going to Mars—we’d better bring decent coffee… and a bucket. "Burning Man is just like going to Las Vegas on Mars. You have to learn how to live on Mars first before you enjoy the parties. It’s survival first, party second… The Burning Man org learned we have to have toilets, roads, and support systems. NASA probably should learn from you guys." retro-futurist.com spacemansam.substack.com obtainiumworks.net nss.org/book-review-creature-comforts-in-space youtube.com/@spaceman.sam.coniglio LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG

    From Flipside to the Future - George Paap

    George Paap, a pioneer of the Burning Man Regional network, talks with Andie Grace. He founded Burning Flipside in Texas, the first-ever Burning Man sanctioned event beyond the desert. What inspired him? Black Rock City 1997. He found freedom there, and it sparked a lifelong mission. Hear his adventures of building a culture from scratch, and why, as a futurist, he believes Burners are steady & ready to handle the societal shifts ahead. Collaborating to create local community without a blueprint Celebrating Burning Man culture is a backstop for a polarized world Finding resilience under pressure in the art of radical integrity "Don't wait. You have to jump in and do it. You can't wait for something to happen. You’ve gotta provide the motivation... the inspiration... the vision, and bring people along." — George Paap BURNING MAN LIVE ON YOUTUBE www.burningflipside.com burningman.org/global-events-groups www.trippingly.net/burning-man-musings/tag/George+Paap   LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG

    Open Source Innovation

    There’s a world of civic hacking where "making cool stuff" meets "making useful stuff." Hear tinkerers, gearheads and other makers share about the inventions that won them Burners Without Borders Civic Ignition Grants. These grants are little sparks that fire up the next level of open-source technology for all of our community, and for all the world. Colin Jemmott and MJ Brovold of YOUtopia, the San Diego Regional event, share about their low maintenance light source that’s sturdy, solar-powered, and buildable by anyone. They're also building a huge steel pop-up book!  Sam Smith and Squirtle of SOAK, the Portland Regional event, share about their deployable solar shade pavilion made of star-shapes and scissor linkages. Trash eating robots are involved, and 3D printed ‘precious plastic’ art. This is not about the party. This is about practicing for a future where we won't need to poison the planet to self-express.  These stories are a recipe: One part ‘for the love of it’ spiritOne part skills we already haveBlend until smooth. Enjoy what new ideas can happen when we all put our heads together. burnerswithoutborders.org/2025-regional-event-grant www.luxcapacitor.art sdyoutopia.com sdcolab.org www.precipitationnw.org/burnon soakpdx.com LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG

    Mark Day - 10,000 Hours at Burning Man

    Insightful. World-Building. Spit-take inducing. Mark Day’s videos serve as a digital gateway for many thousands of Burners, capturing that blurry edge where the default world ends and the playa begins.  From his early days building tripper trappers and doing stand up comedy, to his controversial tinkering with AI art (think Dalmatians made of donuts), Mark has put 10,000 hours into his “24 Hours at Burning Man” videos. Andie Grace talks with this unique content creator to explore thresholds and multitudes. They discuss how to capture the moment and also experience it. They dive head first into the touchy subjects of consent, the ethics of documentation, and how “acculturation is an everybody thing.” He shares his sociology of being a Greeter in BRC. He talks creative process. He brings clever curiosity to open-ended self-expression and the freedom to be your favorite version of yourself. https://journal.burningman.org/author/mark-day https://www.youtube.com/markdaycomedy https://www.instagram.com/burner_videos LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG

    Holiday Special - SantaCon at Home - 5th Anniversary

    It's absurd. It perturbs. It’s the most wonderful time of the year! (And boy has it been a year!) Following in the footsteps of show-biz luminaries like Stephen Colbert, Jon Stuart, and the cast of Star Wars, we hosted a (non-denominational) holiday show in front of a live online pseudo-studio audience in 2020. Broadcasting from their snowed-in virtual holiday cabins, Stuart and Andie entertained guests: · Santa Zero - originator of the now-infamous SantaCon phenomenon · Mrs. Claus - founder of Burning Man’s first theme camp, Christmas Camp · Tubatron and his Flaming Tuba playing a Hanukkah song (David Silverman) · Reverend Billy and Savitri D of the Stop Shopping Choir And it wouldn’t be the holiday season without Caveat Magister selling us on Decommodification. Join us for  · how Krampus cramps us · how COVID is an 8-foot-tall dominatrix · how “Gifting” is so close to “Grifting”  · how the Cacophony Society is sooo Kumbaya in the 5th anniversary of our Holiday Special that is indeed SPECIAL.   Portland SantaCon 1996 / “You’d Better Watch Out” santarchy.com/youd-better-watch-out-portland-santacon-96 Cacophony Society: Santasm, Santacon, Santarchy, ad nauseum talesofsfcacophony.com/santasm-santacon-santarchy-kringle-klot-etc-ad-nauseum/ Tubatron (aka David Silverman) burningman.org/podcast/david-silverman-so-thats-how-that-started Reverend Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping  wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverend_Billy_and_the_Church_of_Stop_Shopping LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG

    Zen and the Art of Art Making

    His huge steel sculptures have graced Black Rock City for decades, then found forever homes in cities, festivals, and private collections around the world. Hear veteran structural sculptor Michael Christian go deep and wide about his Burning Man art, from a tree of bones to a 65-foot tall tower. He shares about his installation "Down the Drain," a commentary on human alignment, or misalignment... or maybe it’s about toilets blowing kisses at each other! He talks with Stuart about the shift from a "lone artist" mindset to community collaboration, and how to get everything done despite a storm or a lost box of bolts. They tinker with the qualities of hubris and humility. They get real about why they keep returning to the collective happening in the dust. How does Michael follow intuition more than a thesis?How does he discover the meaning of his art only after he has built it?How did ‘out of the box’ thinking become a 30 year career?These questions are answered with more questions in this episode right here. https://www.michaelchristian.com LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG

    Composting in Paradise - RootHub

    RootHub (aka Aloha) weaves the core values and shared struggle of building Black Rock City and his work in Hawai‘i. He draws inspiration from the Hawaiian people’s concept of kuleana (responsibility to the land and community). When he’s not building BRC with DPW, or playing music to amplify people’s stories, he’s diverting food waste from landfills and incinerators into much needed, nutrient-dense soil for growing food. He does this through his companies. The names say it all: · Full Circle Solutions Hawaii · Leftover Love Company ("We love your leftovers") Hear how ingenuity learned on the playa—along with a sense of humor—allows him to overcome hurdles and create meaningful change in BRC and in Hawai’i, even with the naive tourists. Through sweet story and song, he shares how to combine innovation with tradition, to lift the stone without lifting the weight of the stone. roothub.com leftoverloveco.com fullcirclesolutionshi.com burningman.org/black-rock-city/infrastructure/dept-of-public-works LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG

  8. Art is the How - From BRC to Public Policy

    13/11/2025

    Art is the How - From BRC to Public Policy

    He brought theme camps and art installations to Black Rock City, and yes, he DJed! Now he brings the spirit of kindness and collaboration (and Do-ocracy) into creating public policy. He co-founded a Burning Man Regional nonprofit. He directed a cultural arts center. He collaborated on cultural policy for racial equity, social justice, and creative sustainability. He ran the Seattle Office of Arts and Culture. He now creates affordable housing through community development projects. He says that nonprofit and public sector work is open source, “so take it, learn from it, use it, adaptively reuse it.” Hear Andie Grace ask him how we can make it work where we live. “When you go to the playa and you're in this decommodified environment, all you have is how you show up... I've learned how to approach community-building through collaboration and kindness, and a real spirit of genuine curiosity. As long as you stay curious, a lot can be possible.” thirdwaycreative.com/team watershedcommunity.org LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG
