I brought 6 burners and 5 of us that are already burners to this years Estrella. See as the darboukians are infected by our wilds. I'll post the pictures in the photo album.

Matty.

Burning Man SCA event?

I love the idea. There is a farm here in Nc that we could use if I speak to the Owner.

I've been participating in the SCA for around 8 years. Burning Man came along afterward. Being part of the two cultures has made me think about how to merge elements of the two. While Burning Man is a perennial event, I've found that Burner artists are still trying to find ways to experience a culture that effectively continues to eject them from the "box". Burning Man regionals have begun to pop up to help build on this lifestyle. But how do they grow into a state of solidarity?
SCA is an international non-profit society that provides an excellent model of regionalism. This model makes it possible to actively participate in its growth all year round. It does so by building a virtual world which is effectively superimposed over the political map of today, and governed by political seats that are handed on by its own developed traditions.
In my experience of SCA, I have found its traditions lacking in many ways. Namely, it needs a cultural revolution of young, fresh, creative blood who can stir it out of its own dark ages into a new Renaissance of fun and games. Burning Man, in turn can learn a few things from SCA... A maturity perhaps... ? A deeper environmental awareness... SCA's highest law is Chivalry while Burning Man's highest law is radical self-awareness/ self-reliance and self-expression.
Living in the dream of SCA for the past 8 years has given me awareness of living off the land in many climates, living in tolerant community, creating authentic art, building theme camps and performance art. I have been able to cultivate radical artistic expression through the "current middle ages", and have been able to expand that by connecting with other radicals through Burning Man/
I think the greatest gift I can give both groups is that of one another.
So I invite my fellow dreamers to climb on board my mythical sailing ship to other worlds. I launch this dream ship in hopes of discovering new horizons of expression together...

think that this is a wonderful idea... but what to do with those that take it all to seriously?
It is why I had to take a leave of absense from the SCA. I was a rennie for quiet awhile, and they just couldn't get past my looking at it all as life as art.
