2012 Theme: Fertility 2.0

Twisty — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 19:59:17 +0000

With both DangerRanger and Playa Info saying the same thing, I am lead to believe it. It seems the theme for Burning Man 2012 will be Fertility 2.0

Be it birthing the ideologies of Burning Man into the world or how we bring our ideas to life at Burning Man, I think this is an exciting theme! Being pregnant with an idea or thought, carrying it with you, sharing it with others, allowing it to develop until it’s finally ready, and exerting great efforts to bring it to life, this really speaks to how many art projects, like the PartySnail, come into being.

How will the PartySnail incorporate this theme? Comment and discuss your thoughts and ideas!

JRS: Mutant Vehicle Exhibition July 2012

Caught this in the latest Jack Rabbit Speaks:

“MUTANT VEHICLE EXHIBITION AT THE NATIONAL AUTOMOBILE MUSEUM

The National Automobile Museum in Reno NV, is hosting an exhibition of Mutant Vehicles, including the very first Mutant Vehicle brought to the playa by our very own Danger Ranger. The exhibit will be on display through July 2012, so you’ll have to catch it before your trip to BRC! More info at: www.automuseum.org (Hot tip about this museum: there are costumes and clothing on display as well – cool stuff!)” - Burning Man Update: The Jack Rabbit Speaks, Volume 16, Issue #4

Now that sure sounds interesting! Anyone interested in going?

Thanks goes to Tripod, one of the many Very Important Snailers (VIS), who just recently posted this video of the PartySnail at Burning Man 2011. Tripod, of WorldsBest3D.com, takes many stills and videos with Three Dimensional equipment. You might say he has a unique perspective on our world.

“3D videos can be viewed in 2D by selecting No Glasses and then either Left or Right in the 3D menu on the bottom right of the YouTube player window.” – Tripod

Thanks Tripod! More videos from Tripod can be found on YouTube at: http://www.youtube.com/user/Guitarsenals

Looking for Artists Assistance

Twisty — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 02:17:31 +0000

We need visuals here people! In trying to describe the the way the snail will look on playa, a picture is worth a 1000 words. Problem is, we’re not very good at making a picture of what hasn’t been finished. So we thought maybe someone who wants to help can help with that!

I have created a PDF with illustrations of the Party Snail in it’s current form. You can download this and printout, color, draw, sketch, crayon or whatever you like with them! We want to visually show:

Our new foot design (That extends from nose to tail)
Some meshing or netting that obscures the upper cab of the truck & shows an almost connection from shell to foot
Shows some new Stalks
Looks snaily in the foot, spreading wider at the bottom than at the top

I attached a drawing that is very rough and does not give a lot of good perspective. Please follow the link below or download the attached PDF. Please, we want you to be creative and express how you think the snail should look. We’re all way to close to the snail to be able to have visions beyond our boxes.
