The international journal LEONARDO, a publication dedicated to art
and technology and published by the MIT Press, has collaborated with
Burning Man to publish a special section featuring The Art of Burning
Man. In the October 2003 issue of the journal, 20 artists discuss the
creative aspects of designing and building art for Burning Man. Among
the many art media discussed are fire, water, lasers, LED light,
metal, telestereo optics and fractal audio. Each essay is illustrated
with a photo of the artwork.

The Burning Man Special Section includes an introduction by Guest
Editor Louis M. Brill: "Desert Weirdness Introduces a New Era of Art"
and a feature article by Burning Man art curator Christine Kristen
(a.k.a. LadyBee): "The Outsider Art of Burning Man."
Artists' essays are divided into four themes as follows:
SCULPTURE - Michael Christian: Flock.
LIGHT SCULPTURE - Radiant Atmospheres: The Afterlife; Tim Black: L2K
Ring and Ship to Ship; Jeremy Lutes: The Lily Pond; Christopher
Schardt: Spin; Russell Wilcox: Beaming Man.
INTERACTIVE INSTALLATIONS - Cassidy Curtis and Chris Whitney: The
Telestereoscope; Deidre DeFranceaux and Jann Nunn: The Cradle;
Hendrik Hackl: The Ammonite Project; Cynthia "Kiki" Pettit: Firefall;
Kal Spelletich: The Myth of Sisyphus; Jenne Giles and Philip Bonham:
The Ribcage; Dan Das Mann: The One Tree; Susan Robb: The Golden Tower
Project; Finley Fryer: The Plastic Chapel.
MOBILE INSTALLATIONS - Dana Albany: The Bone Tree; Aaron Wolf Baum:
The Voice of the Nebulous Entity; Lisa Nigro: Draka, The Flaming
Metal Dragon; Steven Raspa: The Futura Deluxe Bubble Fountain and
Porta Temple; Austin Richards: Dr. Megavolt.

The best article by far in the Leonardo issue is Lady Bee's essay:

http://mitpress2.mit.edu/e-journals/Leonardo/gallery/burningman/ladybee.html

It does a great job of explaining why some people
(myself included) find it so profoundly inspiring and unique.

I'll try to contact him.
Is this some kind of "flower power" stuff?
It reminds me of the Seventies.
