Burning Man cleanup

2000-09-23 01:14:14+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

I spent Saturday up on the playa to document the Burning Man cleanup. The playa is way cleaner after a week this year than it was after 6 weeks last year. Of course there were a few assholes who burned couches, some people who left camps intact (everyone's kinda bemused about the folks who left a building, and by that I mean a plywood and 2x4 structure, 18" stud centers and everything, complete with detailed disassembly instructions...), and a few places with a lot of small litter. If you go, take some more magnets on sticks (I can't believe that after last year, the only one around was the one I donated), rakes for going through the dunes that form around trash concentrations, and lots o' trash bags. Dropped the film off to be developed and scanned today, and I'll be entering more locations for the map, I've got a client who needs a delivery Thursday morning, but hopefully fairly soon I'll have the map online, and I'll link that to the images.
