Burning Man 2009 is the latest iteration of “an annual art event and temporary community based on radical self expression and self-reliance in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada.” Basically Burning Man is the ultimate in odd, the Mecca for the creative, and THE PLACE for freaks to come out and play.
The origin of Burning Man is a heartfelt story out of San Francisco, but the festival it has morphed into is a free-for-all of creative expression. Hector Santizo has captured some of his findings at Burning Man 2009. Impressive indeed, but only the tip of the iceberg for this haven of hallucination.
