#109 - Voices of the Renegade Burn Life is a Festival
-
- Society & Culture
The 2021 Renegade Burn was a marvel of self-organization. Today on Life is a Festival I share my own reflections and a collection of interviews from drone artists to temple builders.
The show begins with my own experience. I answer questions, share my philosophy of why we Burn, respond to criticisms, and report on the vibe. Then I interview Nathan Rolshoven, a young, passionate burner and an amateur historian of Burning Man culture. Following that I discuss swarm dynamics with Ralph Nauta of Studio Drift who put on three breathtaking drone shows. Next, we hear from four organizers of the Plan B Facebook group: Howard Davis, Joel Briggs, Mike Lee, and Lofax. Then I share the touching friendship between veteran volunteer Ranger Maverick and Happy Mutant, an EMT with Guardian Elite Medical Services (GEMS). Our final interview is with Monera Mason, a lead organizer of the Temple. To top it off I include a snippet of my rant about burning man philosophy at sunrise on playa with music and culture journalist Katie Bain for her Billboard Magazine article.
This podcast is dedicated to Kamp KISS and of all my amazing campmates who gave me a home on the playa and helped make this podcast happen.
