Off to the desert!

Thursday, August 27th, 2009

Carbon Garden is ready to hit the road and get planted in its intended desert soil on the playa at Burning Man. Here’s a quick vid showing our crew hard at work. No idle hands round these parts the past few weeks. It’s been late nights, lots of pizza and chinese, a huge effort to get our new 12′ tall flowers standing tall. The tall flowers are made purely from carbon fiber, including the bloom, stamen, Flame Element holder, flanges, and stem. Thanks to everyone who helped make the project a reality!

Carbon Garden will be placed in the center of the playa, 700 feet from the Burning Man along the 4:30 axis.  The Garden will be alight with fire and music each night from 9pm - 3am.  There will also be two dawn sessions on Thursday and Saturday, with an acoustic concert on Saturday morning with surprise players.

Here’s the layout for Carbon Garden as it will appear on the playa this year at Burning Man.  The four gates will be each have two flaming carbon fiber towers, and infrared sensors to trigger music and flame behaviors as people enter and exit.  We’ll be located 700 feet from the man along the invisible 4:30 line on your clock dial, pretty near to the Tea House, so it will indeed be quite a zen corner of the desert.

Oh, you’re the PDF type?
