First in 2008, and several times since, a fellow math PhD and I traveled to the Burning Man art festival to sit in the desert and talk with the locals about whatever they happened to be curious about. Burning Man began in 1986, when a group of people (who would argue endlessly over any finite list of their names) decided to assemble annually on a San Francisco beach and burn a wooden human effigy. In 1990, membership and a lack of fire permits forced Burning Man to combine with Zone #4, a “Dadaist temporary autonomous zone” piloted by the Cacophony Society, in the Black Rock Desert 110 miles outside of Reno, Nevada. Figure 1: Although The Man itself changes very little from year to year, his surroundings do. In this version from 2009, he’s surrounded by a forest of two by fours.

Gdmez INTRODUCTION Burning Man is an annual art event and temporary community based on radi- cal self-expression and self-reliance, in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada.' The event is a week-long annual affair that draws more than fifty thousand partici- pants, known as "burners," from around the world. 2 The event takes place in the custom-built, temporary, Black Rock City,3 located in a prehistoric lakebed or "playa" in the Black Rock desert, more than one hundred miles from Reno. Black Rock City is rebuilt annually on seven square-miles of federal land in the southern point of the Black Rock Desert.4 Burners are explicitly encouraged to partake in acts of "radical self-expression." They do so through artistic performances; by creating interactive sculptures and other outdoors art installations, through cos- tumes and fashion, music, art vehicles, and visual media.5 *Associate Professor, Florida International University College of Law.

  • Revolutionary Games and Repressive Tolerance: on the Hopes and Limits of Ludic Citizenship
    http://dx.doi.org/10.7592/EJHR2015.3.2.3.shepard European Journal of Humour Research 3 (2/3) 18–34 www.europeanjournalofhumour.org Revolutionary Games and repressive tolerance: on the hopes and limits of ludic citizenship Benjamin Shepard Human Services Dept., City University of New York [email protected] Abstract This essay considers examples of boisterous game play, including ludic movement activity and humour in the context of the Occupy Wall Street movement in the USA. This form of auto- ethnography makes use of the researcher’s feelings, inviting readers into the personal, emotional subjectivities of the author. In this case, the author explores games, play, and humour highlighting a few of the possibilities and limits of play as a mechanism of social change, looking at the spaces in which it controls and when it liberates. While play has often been relegated to the sports field and the behaviour of children, there are other ways of opening spaces for play for civic purposes and political mobilization. The paper suggests play as a resource for social movements; it adds life and joyousness to the process of social change. Without playful humour, the possibilities for social change are limited. Keywords: play, Occupy Wall Street, Marx, Burning Man, pie fights. 1. Introduction Art and activism overlap in countless ways throughout the history of art and social movements. This essay considers the ways games, humour and play intervene and support the process. Here, social reality is imagined as a game, in which social actors play in irreverent, often humorous ways. Such activity has multiple meanings.

  • Street Art, Sweet Art? Reclaiming the “Public” in Public Place
    Street Art, Sweet Art? Reclaiming the “Public” in Public Place LUCA M. VISCONTI JOHN F. SHERRY JR. STEFANIA BORGHINI LAUREL ANDERSON Consumer research has paid scant attention to public goods, especially at a time when the contestation between categorizing public and private goods and con- trolling public goods is pronounced. In this multisited ethnography, we explore the ways in which active consumers negotiate meanings about the consumption of a particular public good, public space. Using the context of street art, we document four main ideologies of public space consumption that result from the interaction, both conflict and common intent, of urban dwellers and street artists. We show how public space can be contested as private and commercialized, or offered back as a collective good, where sense of belonging and dialogue restore it to a mean- ingful place. We demonstrate how the common nature of space both stimulates dialectical and dialogical exchanges across stakeholders and fuels forms of layered agency. An empty wall is an empty population.

  • Technology Retreats and the Politics of Social Media Adam Fish
    tripleC 15(1): 355-369, 2017 http://www.triple-c.at Technology Retreats and the Politics of Social Media Adam Fish Lancaster University, Lancaster, United Kingdom, [email protected], http://www.lancaster.ac.uk/sociology/about-us/people/adam-fish Abstract: This essay examines weeklong technology retreats in Silicon Valley. These re- treats embody digital healthism, which I define as the discourse that promotes the self- regulation of digital consumption for personal health. I argue that the self-regulation ad- vanced by digital healthism insufficiently addresses the politics of media refusal. Technology retreats channel frustrations about social media use into opportunities for personal and cor- porate growth instead of political activism. I consider how technology retreats might partici- pate in a dialogue about the regulation of social media platforms and companies by states. Evidence for these claims come from ethnographic research with the founders of a technol- ogy retreat in Silicon Valley. Keywords: Regulation, Personalisation, Politicisation, Social Media, Governmentality, Healthism, Technology, Media Refusal, Technology Retreats Acknowledgement: This article is dedicated to Levi Felix, co-founder of Camp Grounded, who passed away during the course of our friendship. Gratitude to Zev Felix, Brooke Dean, Ben Madden, Lyndsey Madden, and Joe Madden. Thanks to Theodora Sutton for major in- sights into Camp Grounded. 1. Introduction In many communities in and around Silicon Valley, working on one’s mental, physi- cal, and even spiritual health is a marker of both personal and professional success (Ferenstein 2015). Google’s “meditation leader”, Chade-Meng Tang, claims that meditation boosts emotional intelligence (EI), “And every company knows that if their people have EI, they’re gonna make a shitload of money” (Shachtman 2013).

  • Into the Zone
    chapter 1 Into the Zone By the time I first got to Burning Man in 1996— which turned out to be a pivotal year for the event— it had already changed dramatically from its humble beginnings a decade before. On summer solstice eve in 1986, a man named Larry Harvey and his friend Jerry James decided, for no premeditated reason, to host an impromptu gathering on San Fran- cisco’s Baker Beach, where they constructed a primitive wooden effigy and burned it. Having invited just a handful of friends to join them, they were delighted to discover that as they set flame to the eight- foot- high sculpture, the spectacle attracted onlookers from up and down the beach. As Harvey tells the often-repeated tale, someone began to strum a gui- tar, others began to dance and interact with the figure, and a spontaneous feeling of community and connectedness came upon those gathered— friends and strangers alike (see DVD, chap. 1). Flushed with the unan- ticipated success of the gathering, Harvey and James soon decided to hold it again the next year; with each subsequent iteration, both the crowd and the sculpture grew substantially. Numerous legends have accumulated around the birth of the festival and— as is often the case with largely oral traditions—the elements of the narrative have shifted with each retelling, as some aspects have been emphasized and others lost in the dust. For his part, Harvey insists that he had no consciously preconceived ideas about the meaning of the Burning Man, let alone about starting a global movement.

  • From Radical to Routine: BURNING MAN and the TRANSFORMATION of a COUNTERCULTURAL MOVEMENT
    From Radical to Routine: BURNING MAN AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF A COUNTERCULTURAL MOVEMENT Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in the Welch School for Graduate Studies Goucher College By Miriam Fathalla, B. Soc. Sci. Master of Arts in Cultural Sustainability Program Goucher College 2015 Thesis Committee: Robert Baron, Ph.D., Advisor Rory Turner, Ph.D. Brian Doherty Abstract Burning Man refers to three entities; a community of motivated creatives, an organizational body and the week-long Nevada-desert art event that attracts up to 70,000 participants annually and culminates in the burning of a large effigy. All three iterations are rapidly growing and ask participants to embrace Ten Principles (or social ideals held in common) in order to create the liminal space that is ripe for individual and social transformation inherent to the Burning Man experience. With what may be considered widespread success of the event, Burning Man is grappling with how to sustain, protect and grow the culture of the event and community with many new participants each year. This work explores how the radical, avant-garde and transgressive event has necessarily changed over its 29-year history and how institutionalization, normalization and regulation has affected the spirit of curiosity, ingenuity and communitas at the heart of this extreme experience. It examines the trajectory of emergent culture, how emergent and dominant cultures interface and the role of cultural incorporation in this process. This work points to new directions for the practice and growing body of Cultural Sustainability work and theory by focusing on emerging cultural phenomenon and analyzing how Cultural Sustainability practices may be applied to the conscious creation/evolution of a culture.

  • The Art of Burning Man
    NO SPECTATORS: THE ART OF BURNING MAN April 26/June 7–Sept. 2 Happening every August in Nevada’s inhospitable Black Rock Desert, a thriving metropolis rises from the playa dust for a single week. During that time, many societal norms are put on hold as a unique community emerges based on 10 guiding principles that include Radical Self-expression, Communal Effort, and a glorious Gifting economy. Interactive art installations of all shapes and sizes are erected; some are burned to the ground and at the end of the week, the city vanishes WEL– without a trace. No Spectators: The Art of Burning Man offers some of the stunning, sometimes participatory works that have emerged from this annual gathering by many of the artists and collectives who have become synonymous with the event. The exhibition also celebrates its importance to the American story as one of the most influential cultural events of our time. Artworks are located throughout the museum’s permanent collection COME and special exhibition galleries. Using this map, we encourage you to discover the gift of No Spectators: The Art of Burning Man. Visitors may touch only the artwork featured in the No Spectators: The Art of Burning Man exhibition.
