One of the primary tenets of the event is "radical self reliance". That =/= hippy. Yes, there is a large quotient of old hippies there. 40% of the attendees are over 40. Many of them are very cool intelligent accomplished people.
A wood man. And actually, at the end they burn The Temple. Look up on youtube: 2011 temple burn
if you want to see something spectacular
Last year, at my 30 person camp we had people from 8 different countries. International attendees abound.
Cool people get even cooler with age. There is a huge amount of advanced fabrication and machinery there for art projects. For my own project i have a wooden washington monument that shoots 20 ft green flames out of the tip at night and blows bubbles during the day. It cost us $10,000 to build and we raised all the money for the project.

All of them.
And most of them.
Yes, true indeed.
One of my other "art projects" for the festival this year is to set up a 20x20 boxing ring. I am bringing gloves mouthguard and bell.
Outmatched contestants will see their opponent havr a hand tied behind back. Or feet tied. Or have to fight on their knees haha. If enough people sign up i will havr a kumate tournament. Each Winner has to wear a Borat style swimsuit.
Im also goin to be giving fighting lessons.
Oh oh oh. And i am camping with Alex Grey. I hope he will fight me.

There are seminars on everything and anything with people both willing to give and receive.
Food and everything necessary for survival is brought with you. I guess what is really cool is how people band together at the end to comb the desert to collect all the trash.
Drugs are also very easy to obtain but he doesnt recommend accepting from people you don't know.
