What, You Think Stickers Just Grow on Trees?

Zac Cirivello writes:

“Now is the time to start getting crafty on images for the 2017 event. Each year, about a hundred designs are submitted and the staff and volunteers at Burning Man headquarters select about a dozen to print for the year.

One sticker design out of those submitted is selected each year as the ‘not really official’ sticker of the year and given to every Burner at the Greeter Station as they arrive. A handful of the other designs will also be turned into sticker schwag sprinkled throughout BRC randomly (Immediacy! Gifting!) and shared with Burners all year round. Help us remember our wonderful home in the desert even when we’re away!”

#PlayaMade: Creating a Community That Goes Deeper Than Economics

Mia Quagliarello writes:

“There’s a secondary theme we’d like you to consider this year (and come to think of it every year ever after). It’s called ‘Playa Made’ — or #PlayaMade in social media parlance — and it’s a simple idea with mighty consequences. It means don’t buy new stuff just because you can and because it’s easy. It is bad for the earth, degrades our culture, and it’s just plain boring.

‘Playa Made’ means putting your wallet away and looking at what’s already around you. It means getting creative, crafty, and resourceful. It’s realizing that, together, we are creating experiences that can’t be bought, and the experience of Burning Man is all of it, from the outsized majesty of the art right down to the tiniest dangly earring gifted by a new friend.”

Gong Yi & Luo Shou-Cheng — Reminiscence (1995)

  • It’s classical guqin music from China. Super chill.
