The Human Light Suit is a one-man portable photo studio that helps one photographer to capture the one-of-a-kind sights from Burning Man, an annual experimental event that brings out the crazy and creativity in every attendee. With this in mind, it is no wonder that a photographer would go so far as to becoming a walking photo studio to document all the characters he stumbles upon. In a way, he becomes one of them himself.
For this year's event, however, the mastermind behind the one-man portable photo studio, Erik Schwabel, is seeking people's help to bring a better Human Light Suit to the event. In particular, he is hoping to upgrade its styling and custom-welded, lighter-weight lighting supports.
