EVOLUTION * Burning Man 2009 from moontroll on Vimeo.
Now that I've got all of the BM video shorts completed and posted, it is time to launch a video project with a broader scope -- I humbly offer up "EVOLUTION: Burning Man 2009" for your streaming and downloading pleasure. At just under a half-hour in length, this video seeks to celebrate Black Rock City in all of its ephemeral glory as well as commemorate the once-in-a-lifetime quickening of people that came together organically to form Camp Get Found at 3:30 & Lineage. This production utilized the photos and videos of many friends, as well as borrowed footage from Ben Wiggins, Mr. Nightshade and John Chavez. The soundtrack features Random Rab, Welder, ill.Gates, Ezekiel Honig, Nosaj Thing and Shpongle.

BM09 video short #7 : Temple
Burn

Edubious
Moontroll has spun out
one last video shorts from photos and videos gathered on the playa
at Burning Man 2009 by himself and co-conspirator Edubious. This
last episde is a team favorite as it captures a very spontaneous
and random performance by a marching band who came by at the right
place at the right time and created a space for all of us to move
out of our temple burn hypnosis.

BM09 video short #4 : Abraxas
Sunrise

Abraxas the Dragamuffin at night, by Loupiote
Sunrise on the playa is a special, strange time, and for my past two Burns, the artcar Abraxas the Dragamuffin has been one of the best places to be during this transformation from night to day. This video short features Mikhal on the decks playing Bassnectar's remix of Spearhead's "Skin on the Drum" on Saturday morning. Kind of reminiscent of this session from 2007: http://vimeo.com/2693400.

BM09 video short #3 : Art Car
Mayhem

As I was walking around aimlessly waiting for what seemed like an eternity for the Raygun Gothic Spaceship to "launch" on Thursday night, I was in awe of the collected energy and sound and lights. Everybody and their monkey had gathered in a giant circle around the spaceship, so it was not unlike Burn night, typically the only night of the week when everyone in Black Rock City are together and focused on a common something. It always makes for an intense scene when all of that madness and mayhem is concentrated like that. Anyway, I took out my beat-up playa camera and started recording video, capturing 1/100th of what I saw in the melee as I wandered around. I think the idea came to me when I heard the Spearhead remix coming out of a giant art car and I wanted to record it for my Spearhead-loving friend Edub (who was somewhere else in the chaos that night.)
