  • Volunteer Appreciation Research Project
    Volunteer Appreciation Research Project Volunteer Leadership Council March, 2021 Forward Why do we appreciate? There was a time before the 10 Principles existed when Burning Man was not so kind an organization. We valued hard work over being in the moment, critical feedback over empathy and diplomacy, and speaking over listening. We developed a culture of workaholism and fiefdoms. There was rarely a kind word to someone on another team and moving from team to team was actively discouraged. We had a “no poaching” of staff rule. It made for very difficult meetings, hard decision-making, many people leaving feeling burned out and used, and much unnecessary stress. Thankful were we the day we started to appreciate each other. If what we are creating are real communities the people will be in them for a long time, and the time we are spending making them are hours, days, years of our own lives. We found out the hard way that appreciation was the key to creating understanding, cooperation, and sound compromise, making the hours of our lives more rich and meaningful. How do you appreciate? Harley K. Dubois, Burning Man Co-Founder 1 1 Introduction 1.1 Volunteer Leadership Council The Volunteer Leadership Council (VLC) was initiated by Burning Man Co-founder Harley K. Dubois in 2015, and exists “to champion the human spirit of Volunteerism, creating a foundation for a culture of appreciation and empowerment within the Burning Man community and beyond.” The VLC is an advisory body, grounded in Burning Man’s 10 Principles, that supports the greater Burning Man community by providing guidance, resource sharing, and by identifying and sharing best practices in volunteer leadership.

  • Dancing Into the Chthulucene: Sensuous Ecological Activism In
    Dancing into the Chthulucene: Sensuous Ecological Activism in the 21st Century Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kelly Perl Klein Graduate Program in Dance Studies The Ohio State University 2019 Dissertation Dr. Harmony Bench, Advisor Dr. Ann Cooper Albright Dr. Hannah Kosstrin Dr. Mytheli Sreenivas Copyrighted by Kelly Perl Klein 2019 2 Abstract This dissertation centers sensuous movement-based performance and practice as particularly powerful modes of activism toward sustainability and multi-species justice in the early decades of the 21st century. Proposing a model of “sensuous ecological activism,” the author elucidates the sensual components of feminist philosopher and biologist Donna Haraway’s (2016) concept of the Chthulucene, articulating how sensuous movement performance and practice interpellate Chthonic subjectivities. The dissertation explores the possibilities and limits of performances of vulnerability, experiences of interconnection, practices of sensitization, and embodied practices of radical inclusion as forms of activism in the context of contemporary neoliberal capitalism and competitive individualism. Two theatrical dance works and two communities of practice from India and the US are considered in relationship to neoliberal shifts in global economic policy that began in the late 1970s. The author analyzes the dance work The Dammed (2013) by the Darpana Academy for Performing Arts in Ahmedabad,

  • 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.

  • The Performance Culture of Burning Man
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: THE PERFORMANCE CULTURE OF BURNING MAN Wendy Ann Clupper, PhD, 2007 Directed By: Dr. Franklin J. Hildy, Department of Theatre and Performance Studies Theatre in the United States for the last twenty years has been evolving in scope by way of a cultural phenomenon known as Burning Man. In 2006, this festival attracted over forty thousand participants to the Black Rock Desert in Northwestern Nevada to a flat dusty Playa surrounded by mountain ranges. While the natural environment there is hostile, the creative atmosphere is welcoming and invites a broad scope of performative behaviors and genres to be exhibited there, the entire week the festival takes place. Make-shift stages and theme camps, as well as large- scale interactive art pieces play host to participants who dress up in fanciful costumes to perform in all manner of imagining. This dissertation maps out the cultural terrain of Burning Man in order to explain how performing there is form of identity-making and cultural commodity. As one of a handful of North American festivals which expressly discourage commercialism and commodification, theatricality takes the place of significance for entertainment and communication. Performance forms of all kinds historically are represented at Burning Man and this dissertation will investigate and theorize how a new performance culture has emerged from the festival itself and by its presence as a theatrical event, has exposed and expanded performance and theatre forms. This dissertation offers a critical framework through which to consider performance and performers within the Burning Man community as applied to Mikhail Bakhtin’s concept of Carnival and the Schema for Theatrical Eventness proposed by the International Federation for Theatre Research Theatrical Events Working Group.
