Description
People all around the world create annual events that align in principle. Some have over 10,000 participants like events in Israel and South Africa. Some have under 20 participants, like “Melting Man” in Fargo, North Dakota. They are collaborative art experiences, celebrations, healing rituals, mutual aid, and fun for a good cause. For 2 decades our global community has been bringing people together.Andie Grace and Michael Vav talk with Iris Yee, Head of the Burning Man Regional Network, about how various groups activated during these strange times, and what they’re creating next. Here we are re-reminded that it's not about how many or how far, it’s about the culture, the collaboration, and the conversation.

Coyote and the Book Built to Burn: Tony “Coyote” Perez has been building and striking Black Rock City since 1996, back when it had a tenth of the population and user-friendliness. Two long years later he became BRC's Superintendent, and still is to this day. He’s the “Bard of the Desert” and Burning Man’s first Storytelling Fellow. Stuart and Andie talk with him about his book “Built to Burn” and the sketchy days of early Burning Man, the widows of Gerlach, a territorial cattle rancher, and a helicopter Sheriff who loses his cool. WARNING: Contains descriptions of a graphic nature. Once you hear it, you can’t unhear it. by Burning Man LIVE
