It grew from a group of like 50 to 70,000 over the years
I just wanted to make sure I had more of an idea of basic thermodynamics than 128 kickstarter backers who sent it there
*indiegogo
Does Tim have any tier 4 or 5 people?
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-orb-at-burning-man-2018#/ Like, here's the indiegogo
They asked for $50k, got $35k, sent it there anyway
That thing looks sick
saw pics
It's literally a reflective ball, though
I don't see the artistic value
And that's not me being ignorant of art, I'm a singer/songwriter
Description on indiegogo is really pretentious too
Idk, I might swing through Burning Man if I'm ever stateside but honestly yeah it looks like I'd get annoyed
Awesome.
Hope this helps, Tim. ;)
burning man used to be cool
its was this anti establishment thing where ppl could do fun shit
Quiznos shot a commercial there
rich ppl show up in campers with AC
its as establishment as it comes now
It's when things go mainstream
ppl who go to burning man are sheep pretending to be shepherds
The music that comes from these kinds of gatherings are still good.
Goa, PsyTrance, etc
I like the thought that alternatives to Burning Man will pop up as a result of Burning Man becoming too mainstream and capitalized to hell.
@Timcast didn't it used to be free and now it's pay to enter?
not sure
I should do some research on Burning Man
as long as Ive known about it has been dominated by the type of people who go to spencers and buy "nerd" hats
Yes
I think thats the best way to describe how I feel about it
its the "nerd hat" equivalent of a festival
hahaha
$390 per ticket and $80 vehicle pass
That's sad I always think of the better days of Jimi Hendrix when I think of it
So Burning Man is TomorrowLand for hippies.
It's not that now though
got it.
is that like glastonbury?
