Looking ahead & Temple 2011
March/31/2011 Filed in: getting ready
Having just passed the Burnal Equinox, beginning our slow slippery slide down the slope towards Black Rock City 2001 and "Rites of Passage," Burning Man is increasingly on my mind. Daydreams of the desert, the dust, the nights full of flame and tribal family reunion that awaits me causes my pulse to rise and heart to pound. I sent out a message to the rest of Get Found today in an attempt to rally the troops and begin the envisioning and intentioning that will create our next generation camp, though it is still early to get much spark out of folks. Thoughts race through my brain: will we have the parachute or sleep tunnel again this year? will we team up with Chillville and the Glacial Facial again, as in 2010, or strike out on our, as in 2009? where's Hekter gonna end up? Highlove? Starpants? do I need to invest in a new tutu? can I show up several days early again, and stay late, to watch the city rise, shine and then disintegrate again?
Ah, patience young grasshopper. All will reveal itself in time, perfectly in sync with how things need to be.

It is called "The Temples" and looks to be a worthy successor to a long line of sacred architecture creating introspective spaces:

Here’s a cool pictogram that shows how it will match past temples, both architecturally and dimensionally:
