I spent some time yesterday evening searching for said banana but to no avail. Hence I will be mailing it back to you/him tomorrow. :) Hope you all had as much of a kick ass amazing time as I did!!

I'm having a hell of a time trying to find a decent club that isn't some Old City spot filled with 18 year olds.  I have no idea if Transit is good on Fridays (or outside of Making Time).  Barbary is an option, but it's teeny.  Never been to Pure, but I hear bad things about membership fees.  Any and all suggestions welcomed, thanks!&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Please join in planning and developing this event!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This meeting is to discuss items/issues/concerns from the Fall Burn.
&lt;br/&gt;Additional details can be found on the BBS:
&lt;br/&gt;playadelfuego.org/bbs/viewforum.php
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Details on the BBS regarding this particular meeting can be found here:
&lt;br/&gt;playadelfuego.org/bbs/viewtopic.php
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The agenda as it currently stands (always open to additional suggestions ON
&lt;br/&gt;THE BBS) is as follows:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;1. Sound Problems
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;a. Possibility of Theme Camp Sound Registration
&lt;br/&gt;b. Sound Patrol (how do we give Sound Patrol "enforcement
&lt;br/&gt;authority"? The enforcement issue may be something we have to take to the
&lt;br/&gt;board, since they deal with evictions and such.)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;2. Clean Up Problems
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;a. Creation of a Moop Map
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;3. Ticket Cap Increase
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;a. Additional Parking
&lt;br/&gt;b. Additional Trash Roll Offs
&lt;br/&gt;c. Additional Port-a-Potties
&lt;br/&gt;d. Additional Insurance Considerations
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;4. Future Fall Burn Needs
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;a. Additional Wood Purchase (we need to consider buying
&lt;br/&gt;additional wood because it's just so much colder. We also may want to think
&lt;br/&gt;about asking the Vets if they'd like to sell us firewood by the bundle to
&lt;br/&gt;individuals, rather than dipping into community money to pay for it)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;5. Location Search Status Update
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;a. Request a Status from Magorn and the Land Search Committee
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Ananas &amp;amp; Matt are opening their home for this meeting!
&lt;br/&gt;Date: November 14, 2009
&lt;br/&gt;Time: 4:00 PM Promptly
&lt;br/&gt;Location: 4742 Bates Drive, Ellicott City, MD 21043
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If you can’t make it in person, please join us virtually via conference
&lt;br/&gt;call! Conference Dial-in Number: (712) 775-7000 at Access Code: 794580#
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;****There will be a potluck after the meeting, so if you’d like to
&lt;br/&gt;participate, entrees, side dishes, desserts and beverages (all kinds) are
&lt;br/&gt;more than welcome.****
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The more of us that take care of the details, the less work each of us has
&lt;br/&gt;to do individually, and the more fun for all. Feel even more connected to
&lt;br/&gt;your community as you give back a little time! (Playa del Fuego is 100%
&lt;br/&gt;volunteer run, driven, hacked.) &lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;If this looks familiar, that's because it is an edited version of fall's call for a PDF PONY (so sue me--I'm freakin lazy):
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;PONY UP! Since you're still feeling a bit of the glow from last weekend and you're just bursting with creativity, please apply to build the next PDF Pony. Our next Burn comes on Memorial Day weekend of 2010.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Maybe you were thinking we were flooded with applications to build the Pony over the years and you don't stand a chance-- well, THINK AGAIN! I've only gotten eight applications over the past seven burns. On the two occasions we didn't get applications, I had to beg and plead. (THANK YOU Ember and Monk-E)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Maybe you were thinking the organization doesn't spend all that much money or care much about the Pony-- well, THINK AGAIN! You can get a grant up to $700, and the Pony is the centerpiece of the Burn. Everyone cares and appreciates a good Pony.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If you have an idea, please fill out the info below and return it to me offlist at jillnado@hotmail.com before Dec 15 (can ya handle the deadline pressure, slacker??). Thank you!

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Dearest Burners,
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;An epic re-jiggering of humanity is upon us. In this moment of transformation and transcendence (literally “The End of Days”), 3,000 pioneers of a new era gather in a remote former air base deep in Brooklyn to celebrate our evolution towards this moment, and to join forces to create a more perfect world. Together, we will build a model of utopia for the last of our kind, opening our arms to the diversity of post-human life and creating a new world in our image.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;As the final 3,000 souls left on this planet, we ask ourselves: are we human or post-human? Granted the ability to create our own forms, what can we learn from our evolution to this point in time…and how can we evolve into a more perfect future?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The New York City Burning Man Community presents
&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;   I know many of you are frustrated with the mad rush for PDF
&lt;br/&gt;tickets and sometimes are not able to purchase them.  There is
&lt;br/&gt;a BBS for ticket exchanges here: http://playadelfuego.org/bbs/
&lt;br/&gt;What usually happens is people buy tickets for friends who later
&lt;br/&gt;cancel.  Also, some buy tickets, but don't pay for them in time.
&lt;br/&gt;These tickets go back into the pool.  Around 1-2 weeks pre-event
&lt;br/&gt;you should see more of these tickets become available.  Finally
&lt;br/&gt;if there is a hint of rain in the forecast, many will decide to
&lt;br/&gt;not risk another "mud Burn" and dump their tickets.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;   The organizers of PDF are looking for ways to increase the 
&lt;br/&gt;ticket cap and improve the ticket system for spring.  It will
&lt;br/&gt;never be perfect, but please understand that PDF is one of the
&lt;br/&gt;most popular Regional events and is located within a few hours
&lt;br/&gt;of some of the biggest metropolitan areas in the US.  The laws
&lt;br/&gt;of supply and demand will always apply.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Have you ever wanted to be a newspaper boy or girl? We can make your dream come true! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;It's the best job on the playa. You take the morning newspaper to a portion of the city and everyone loves you. Best way to get schwag and find out how much burners love news AND gossip! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Here's the important link for volunteering to be a newspaper carrier - the best job on the playa. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0ARqZNucZu3vLZGdtbnBobmJfMXBiaG5xbWNy&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;invite=CP3b2eoD
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Just go to the link and enter your name in the day that you'd like to volunteer or pick a couple of days then save the document. All the information you need is on that page. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Back again for our fifth year on the Playa, the Black Rock Beacon is gearing up for Black Rock City 2009, bringing you a unique mix of news, opinions, photography and smoked-pork-product trivia. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Fueled by ridiculous amounts of non-vegan-friendly, high-protein, chemically preserved porcine goodness, we keep tabs on what's going up and down on the Playa. We're planning five issues (six if somebody burns the Man early), and we have some new equipment that should sharpen up our photo quality. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We hope you'll enjoy reading us as you explore the city, and maybe drop by during the 23 3/4 hours we're frying up our namesake . We'll be at Evolution at 5:30.  But if you want MORE, we can dish it out. We need a few good Burners to help us write, edit, produce, and distribute the paper, and to give us a hand with the preparation and consumption of tasty breakfast meats. Beginners welcome, except in the kitchen. And, um, well, if you like our paper and want to give us a hand via PayPal, we're up for that too. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Contact information and copies of all our past issues are available on our website at www.blackrockbeacon.org. There's news to work on now -- for the web and the paper -- so if you want to be part of the longest-running daily on the Playa, drop by and say hi. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Lux. Veritas. Lardum. &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I have a ride that can get me to reno from the rriport as she is landing right around the same time, but i don't want to hang out at the gate for a day and a half  and i don't have anything to do in reno for a day and a half either.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;So if anyone has an extra early entrance pass, and could use an extra hand setting up a camp or art project please let me know ASAP.
&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;RAT'S RENTAL BIKES FOR LONG-DISTANCE BURNERS
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Our friend Rat, up in Sparks, writes to remind us it's time to rent a
&lt;br/&gt;bike for the Burn ... if you're coming from far away, that is.  He says:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"If this is the first time you've heard of me, I've been providing
&lt;br/&gt;bikes for long-distance Burners for over a dozen years. I live in
&lt;br/&gt;Sparks, next door to Reno, just a block or so from the main route to
&lt;br/&gt;Burning Man, I-80, with easy off and on.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;As usual, I'm primarily trying to get bikes into the hands of people
&lt;br/&gt;who  travel a long way to attend the Burn -- at least 1,000 miles from
&lt;br/&gt;Reno.
&lt;br/&gt;{Canada excepted}.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This year I have more bikes than usual, so I don't expect to run out
&lt;br/&gt;so fast, but please don't wait too long to reserve yours!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;For more info or to make reservations, please contact me at: nv_desert_rat@nvbell.net
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Thanks!
&lt;br/&gt;Rat"

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Please note that the Videogasm truck is SOLD OUT! Here's an alternative to ship out to the playa: 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Get your space on the PEX container heading to BRC, and back, of course... 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The basics: 
&lt;br/&gt;-$6 per cu ft (sold in lots of 5 cu ft) 
&lt;br/&gt;-Load in Sunday Aug 16th 10am-1pm (no early or late arrivals) 
&lt;br/&gt;-The container will be at Master and Frankford St Philadelphia, PA 19125 
&lt;br/&gt;-Everything MUST be in a heavy duty bin 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Purchase space here: 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;the-philadelphia-experiment.ticketleap.com
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Further Details (please read): 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The PEX container is back this year with limited space. It’s the usual routine. EVERYTHING MUST be ready to ship in  HEAVY DUTY bins. PLEASE DON’T cheap out on this as no one wants all of your stuff strewn about the playa if your bin busts. Remember, these are packed tight and there could be hundreds of pounds on top of your bins. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Purchasing a ticket reserves your space and is the only way to do so. 10 CU FT is about one bin. SO, if you have 30 CU FT you will buy 6 tickets. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Cubic Feet is calculated by Height x Width x Length. You can also go to this site to make it easy. bit.ly/14bRMY
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;DON’T BE AN IDIOT. No drugs, guns, illegal contraband, life forms, etc can be packed on the container. Your mistakes will jeapordize the entire camp!! If we catch you with anything suspect, expect your items to be burned and you to be ridiculed and banned from PEX for life. Even PEXers have their limit. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Load in is AUG 16th 10am-1pm at Master and Frankford st in Fishtown (philly). No early or late arrivals. bit.ly/EG7ht here’s a map. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The container will be making it to BRC around Monday Aug 24th. Pack your items with the expectation they will be placed on a tarp on the playa with a second tarp to cover them. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We are not liable for any lost, stolen or damaged items. 
&lt;br/&gt;Return details will be confirmed ASAP. 
&lt;br/&gt;SORRY we’re not able to refund any unused space. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;See you on the Playa!&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;Tuesday, July 21st at 9pm at the World Financial Center Winter Garden. FREE.

&lt;br/&gt;The Gamelatron is the world's first and only fully robotic gamelan ensemble. Modeled after traditional Balinese and Javanese gamelan orchestras, the GamelaTron is an amalgamation of traditional instruments with a suite of percussive 117 MIDI-controlled sound makers. Performances follow an arc similar to classic Indonesian gatherings, where stories from great epics, such as the Ramayana, are told and settings given in words that are continued in music.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;For this performance, join the Gamelatron, world electronic music legend Karsh Kale and video artists Forward Motion Theater for a majestic evening at one of the River to River festival's premier venues. (The park in front of the building is a great place for a picnic before hand.)

&lt;br/&gt;GOING PLACES, DOING STUFF
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Dates TBD in August. Suggested donation. Sign up on the website NOW if you want to get in on this, spots go quick!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Following the success of last summer's acclaimed "Going Places (Doing Stuff)," Flux Factory will outdo itself and offer even more amazing artist-led tours to the general public. Think of it as "adventure as performance art." The content of the tours is entirely up to the artist, and destinations are kept secret. Artists will have "carte blanche" to lead a bus-full of people on an odyssey around the greater New York/Tri-State area.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This year our tours will be on board a vegetable oil propelled school bus provided by the Rude Mechanical Orchestra.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Before each tour, we provide only the following information: the artists' name, title of adventure, duration, and a list of needed supplies. In other words, when people sign up for a tour, they know what to bring and how long they'll be gone, but will have no idea where they're going or what they'll experience. Last year's adventures included upstate swimming holes, a trip to a burning city known as "hell on earth," a gastronomic tour through NYC, and a chase after an imaginary character.

&lt;br/&gt;Saturday, September 5, 9pm till quite late! At a never-before-seen, epic warehouse in Brooklyn. More details TBA.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;At the end of the summer of 2008, Winkel &amp;amp; Balktick and a motley crew of a few hundred lucky souls ventured to a magical desert of island, full of merrymaking and enchantment. From sunset to sunrise, they were entertained heartily by the natives' gifts of art, performance, dancing and sumptuous desserts.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;In 2009, Winkel &amp;amp; Balktick began to receive heartfelt postcards from the island's denizens, inviting them back to their joyful kingdom to share in its myriad delights and wonders. After some consultation with local mariners, rescue crews, magicians and charlatans, it was determined that another voyage could be made.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;On Saturday, September 5, 2009, as an enormous wooden man burns in a far away land, join Winkel &amp;amp; Balktick and their crew to create a one night journey through space and time to a kingdom of earthly delights, aquatic vistas and primeval temptations.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;CONFLUX: ART, TECHNOLOGY AND PUBLIC SPACE
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;September 17-20, 2009 in various locations. FREE.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Conflux, the art and technology festival for the creative exploration of urban public space, is pleased to announce the 6th annual Conflux Festival will take place from September 17-20, 2009.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The future of the festival was uncertain after the initial five-year run ended last year. In the midst of the econocalypse, however, artistic and critical attention to the complexities of urban space has taken on a heightened significance. It thus seemed imperative for the festival to continue with a special emphasis placed on resource-sharing, academic analysis, and hands-on and collaborative approaches to the creative examination of the urban environment.

&lt;br/&gt;NY400 CELEBRATION OF DUTCH/NYC CULTURE
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Henry Hudson himself.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;From now until the end of the Fall in various locations. FREE or cheap. From September 10-19, there will be special LATE NIGHT programming on Governors Island!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This year we celebrate 400 years of enduring friendship between the Netherlands and the United States. Four hundred years ago, a Dutch ship called the Half Moon guided to the shores of what is now New York City with Captain Henry Hudson at the helm. This led to the establishment of New Amsterdam and the New Netherland colony. Some 167 years later, in 1776, the Dutch were the first to salute the flag of the United States of America. NY400 celebrates the free spirit, openness, entrepreneurship and tolerance of those Dutch-American pioneers, and their continued relevance today and beyond.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Featuring an enormous array of art, music, history, car-free streets, parties and more. Learn more at http://ny400.org.

&lt;br/&gt;HORIZONS: PERSPECTIVES ON PSYCHEDELICS
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;September 25-27, at Judson Memorial Church in Greenwich Village. $30 for the reception party and two days of presentations.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Horizons is an annual forum for learning about psychedelics, hosted by Judson Memorial Church in New York City. Its goal is to open a fresh dialogue about psychedelics and rethink their role in medicine, culture, history, spirituality and art.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Psychedelics are a unique class of psychoactive drugs that have been used by humans for thousands of years. In the 1950s and early 1960s, academic research with psychedelics yielded important discoveries in psychology and neuroscience. Just a few years later, they entered popular culture across North America, Europe and the world.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Recently, a renaissance in psychedelic research and dialogue has taken shape. Horizons brings together the brightest minds and boldest voices of this movement to share their insights and dreams for the future.

&lt;br/&gt;CRAZY NONSENSE AT HICHRISTINA
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The HiChristina! performance space and social laboratory in Williamsburg has an incredible array of fabulous silliness and creativity, including childrens' birthdays for grown ups, Facebook LIVE (what is sounds like), opportunities to act like an animal (literally), old New Yorkers vs. new New Yorkers mixers, stories about plants and sock puppet matinees &amp;amp; pro wrestling. (Yes, that last one is one event.)

&lt;br/&gt;REAL DANCE PARTIES
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Sometimes you're not looking for an immersive multimedia art adventures with costumes and interactive sculptures, you just want to dance. And god forbid you should try to go to a Manhattan nightclub seeking a party where people actually dance. Contrary to popular belief, there actually are great plain old' fashioned dance parties in New York City where people get down. You just might have to venture out on a night other than Friday or Saturday.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Every Sunday at The Yard on the Gowanus Canal, check out Sunday Best (pictured above), a sunshine friendly party with some of best house &amp;amp; techno DJs in the world. (Check out the lineup if you don't believe me.) Why see a living legend like Maurice Fulton at a crowded nightclub with $10 drinks and a line to get in when you can check him out underneath a canopy of trees with cheap sangria and amazing mexican food?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;On Wednesday nights, Santos Party House on Lafayette has Gravity, DJ Dhundee's weekly exploration of underground dance music. Wander through grime, electro, dirty disco, drum and bass, blacktronica ghetto tech, broken beat, house and hip hop, with Santos's phenomenal sound and lighting system.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;On July 30th, and every third Thursday thereafter, join DJ Small Change for No Parking on the Dancefloor. This is one of my favorites... it's not even at a club or venue, it's the House of Yes's elephantine living room / performance space, now with bouncy wood floors. And they've got smoothies.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;WINDOWS ON WILLOUGHBY
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;An ambitious creative venture featuring 12 storefronts on an entire block (88-106 Willoughby) of downtown Brooklyn which will highlight installations by 15+ artists.
&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;FIGMENT TRADING POST ON GOVERNORS ISLAND
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This September, the City of New York and the Kingdom of the Netherlands are teaming up to celebrate the 400th anniversary of Henry Hudson's voyage to the shores of what would later be known as New York City. Part of the festivities take place on Governors Island, the site of the first Dutch colony, and more recently home to our beloved FIGMENT arts extravaganza.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;In order to pay homage to New Amsterdam's tradition of commerce, and explore the economic implications of gifting and participatory art, we are putting together our very own FIGMENT trade route on Governors Island. During one or more days of the NY400 festival, we will be setting up an artistic trade network.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We are seeking artists to envision trading stations based on creativity, games, participation, and historical New York. The two rules are that you can't actually sell anything, and that your project must be participatory. It doesn't need to be complicated or elaborate, although it certainly can be.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Need inspiration? Check out the book Island at the Center of the World, a phenomenal history of Dutch New York.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;BOX TRUCK EXTRAVAGANZA
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Some of you may have heard reverent whisperings of a secret noodle restaurant called The Lost Horizon hidden in an unassuming rented box truck that has been periodically gracing Brooklyn art parties with its presence. While this secret noodle truck has been having a great time meeting humans, it is also getting lonely and needs some company of its own kind.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;In the early Fall, under the cloak of darkness, an armada of themed rented box trucks will be converging upon a desolate Brooklyn boulevard. You are invited to participate by renting a box truck and creating an interactive experience with in the truck to share. Possibilities are endless, so as long as they fit into a non-descript 14'x7'x7' shell. Things that get people to come in, sit down and hang out would probably work best. We also expect a bit of a street scene to break out... Imagine something halfway between a theme camp and an art car.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Tips and donations may be gently solicited from patrons, but nothing should be sold outright, and no one should be turned away for lack of funds. This is a DIY endeavor, there is no funding. Also, please, no alcohol or drugs. We'd like to keep our box truck community on the right side of the law, or at least in its general vicinity.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;EVERYTHING ELSE
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;REVEREND BILLY FOR MAYOR
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Learn all about the campaign and opportunities to participate and change the world at http://voterevbilly.org/.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;New York City is the sum of its Neighborhoods. The idea that the corporation is the only grown-up institution, and the corporate leader the only true leader- is a costly lie. It is time for fresh ideas and new leadership. It is time for the neighborhoods to rise up and lead New York City, because cities are neighborhoods made of people, not subsidiaries made of money.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;What a feeling of openness and opportunity we have at this point in history. We now have the chance to journey back beyond ordinary economic theory, to talk directly about human beings living together, families and children, and the everyday function of a healthy neighborhood, because a healthy neighborhood IS the engine that will drive the greatest city on earth to become truly Viable, Vibrant, Healthy and Safe for EVERYONE!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;As Mayor of New York, Reverend Billy Talen will continue the work he has done for more than a decade as a champion of local ingenuity and neighborhood know-how. United as he already is with the city's many communities, his administration will be the connecting force reaching out to all New Yorkers, to create a city that is sustainable, just and free; defending public space, self-determination, and the right for every New Yorker to earn an honest, independent living.
&lt;br/&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Hello to all of my Philly friends, and friends of friends, and friendly strangers,
&lt;br/&gt;We Philadelphia Experimenters  are hard at work to make our first annual summer festival a truly memorable one. The energy is ripe. And large. People are coming from all across the country to share in this maiden voyage. You too are invited.
&lt;br/&gt;I know the vibe is bubbling with excitement, art and joy, but I won't say much more, other than we have a lovely lineup with master musicly minded members from across the US, ridiculous workshops like aerial silks, object manipulation of all kinds, yoga, etc, and speakers such as Daniel Pinchbeck and the like. 
&lt;br/&gt;Want to help make this happen and link with The Philadelphia Experiment before we hit the playa for the 11th year? Now is the time, the time is now...
&lt;br/&gt;We truly hope to see you there, old friends and new ones.
&lt;br/&gt;Peace,
&lt;br/&gt;Denise Denise

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;so due to a variety of reasons, it turns out that burningman will not be a reality for me this year.  it seems that the flow is not intent on taking me to BRC in 2009 and i learned long ago not to fight it.  unfortunately i have committed to philadelphia fire conclave and this means that my unfortunate personal circumstances have become a problem for several people to whom i have made a commitment.  so in a lame attempt to do something to make up me breaking my word to these people, i am hoping to find a replacement so that the conclave itself isnt jeopardized due to a lack of performers.  (there is a minimum cap)  so if.....
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;-you want a discounted ticket to burning man
&lt;br/&gt;-a chance to work with some of philadelphias most fun fire performers on a choreographed project
&lt;br/&gt;-to dance under the man before he burns
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;remember that there is no particular need for skill, its much more about dedication and willingness to work within the group.  you dont need to be a superstar or anything like that.  theres even a section of torches if you arent comfortable enough with any particular toy.  this is a really incredible opportunity that i am unfortunately missing but if anyone is interested contact lucky or myself because theres no reason that these people shouldnt get to perform what weve been working on because of me.  thanks&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I've just uncovered an issue with the ticket system where some of the expired unpaid tickets were not being resold when they should have. I will have this issue corrected and those tickets will go on sale Saturday 5/16 at 12 noon. There will only be 41 total tickets going up, so I don't expect them to last long.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Because of the short time remaining until the burn, the payment deadline will be 15 minutes. Please be sure you remember the password for you login to the ticket system, and to your paypal account, so there's no delays that could cause you to lose you tickets.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Email tickets@playadelfuego.org with any questions. Please cross-post this announcement. &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;After years of living in with cancer, I have decided to take back my life.  I would like to attend burning man for the first time...meet new people...and get m life back!!!
&lt;br/&gt;I am interested in being part of a community and would love if someone has an open transportation spot to burning man.  I can pay my own way..help out with chores ( i dont drive, though)..and be a collective part of a group if anyone will have me.  I am fairly new to all of this so I am asking for any help that anyone is willing to give me.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;LEON&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;*you're putting on a show or holding an event at your theme camp (or anywhere else) - no one will come if they don't know about it! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;*you've made a beautiful piece of burnable or non-burnable art - here's your chance to give us all a brief explanation of your piece, and let us know when (if) it's going to burn! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;*your theme camp submission included an incredibly long description for the website. You can let us edit it down for space, or take this chance to edit it yourself. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;*you are hosting an unofficial un-placed theme camp you'd like people to know about. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;* you want your short poetry, essay or other writing to appear in the guide 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Don't wait! Submit at

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;ENERTOPIA (Warp Brain Records / Alladin Project - Israel / Argentina / Atlantic City)
&lt;br/&gt;Emiliano Solazzi Griminger (Moti Griminger) was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina and lived in Beer Sheva, Israel, most of his life. At the age of 18 he was already leading a very succesful Israeli death metal band called CEREBRAL COMA, where he played guitar and vocals, which had mayor success in the international and national underground scene. In 1992, Emiliano hooked up with Ziv Matushka, another pioneer in the Israeli electronic music scene and, together, they started to experiment with more Industrial music and eventually wrote Goa and Psy trance. Ziv joined P.Cok, and Emiliano continued his project as ENERTOPIA. The first single by Enertopia was released in 1996 by B.N.E Israel in a compilation called DESTINATION ISRAEL, and after a few months he was signed by KREMBO Records (Israel). The first full length album was called MAGIC FOR ETERNITY, released in 1997, followed by FACE ADAPTOR, co-written with Yuli Fershtat AKA B.L.T, Perfect Stranger. In between 1996 and 1998 Enertopia released two full albums and numerous singles. His Third album “Divine” was released on September of 2008 on Geomagnetic.TV and it was received all over the world with great success. Nowadays, based in USA, Emiliano has founded “Warp Brain Records”, the first east-coast label of PsyTrance and Progressive trance.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;For anyone not on it, I am cross posting this from the PEX tribe
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We're Back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Our first two movie nights went so well, we're doing it again on Sun. April 26, 2009!!!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Not only were the last films excellent, but the food everyone brought &amp;amp; shared was even better. Beyond that, the yard &amp;amp; garden is just starting to bloom. Henceforth (and assuming the weather is nice) this event is officially re-named “Burner Movie, Gourmet &amp;amp; Garden Party Night”
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;For our third Event, we are featuring two films dealing with entirely different subjects. (We want to follow up the documentary with something lighter &amp;amp; funny)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;(For information about our previous “Burner Movie Night #1” please go to the following link or look below for the thread in the PEX Tribe.)

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;MOVIE #1 “The Planet”
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The first film, a documentary called “The Planet” (not the series) is an amazing look at our planet and many of the humanity educed environmental stresses it is experiencing. It was filmed in 25 different countries, is visually stunning, took two years to produce, has an excellent sound track and was worth the wait.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;It is a large overview of the condition of OL Mother earth. (She's sick &amp;amp; could really use our help.) If you want to understand the social forces, as well as the environmental ones, effecting our planet, this film should not be missed.”
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Quote "A real must see. This documentary lays down facts, figures, and themes regarding the state of the planet in a very accessible way. As a previous reviewer said, it is more "intense" than an Inconvenient Truth, but I hardly think any of the concepts presented are hard to take in - in fact, due to the number of interviews, the film manages to take the viewer through a range of issues regarding the state of the planet, without ever losing focus of its basic message - that we must do something NOW. A well put together soundtrack enhances the narrative. Well worth the watch. But god, we've really stuffed this planet up."

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;MOVIE #2 French Twist, is the evenings' later attraction.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Rather than just stick with documentaries for Burner Movie Night, I also want to share some more drama/comedy and lighten things up a bit.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The second film, "French Twist." is one of our poly favorites. A bit obscure &amp;amp; perhaps not the best film ever made, it has a bit of relationship educational value, and will definitely have you laughing.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Please note, it is in French with English sub titles.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;CONTRIBUTE AN ELECTROLUMINESCENT CREATION FOR THE 2009 MAN BASE!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This year's art theme is titled "Evolution ñ A Tangled Bank". In 2009,  
&lt;br/&gt;the statue that is Burning Man will rise above a kind of tangled bank  
&lt;br/&gt;consisting of irregular wooden triangles.  No two elements of this  
&lt;br/&gt;organic composition will be quite the same; together they'll create  
&lt;br/&gt;what's best described as a chaotic truss.  At night this vaulted  
&lt;br/&gt;pavilion will come alive with luminous life forms, scratching,  
&lt;br/&gt;crawling and skittering their way around and through it.  A rendering  
&lt;br/&gt;of this structure is featured on our website at:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;http://burningman.com/art_of_burningman/bm09_theme.html
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Burning Man Project invites you to contribute to this design.  We  
&lt;br/&gt;wish to create simple electro-luminescent animations, creating the  
&lt;br/&gt;illusion of exotic and fanciful life forms.  Your submission need  
&lt;br/&gt;merely be two or three line drawings that we will convert into an  
&lt;br/&gt;illusion of continuous movement.  Such figures will be rendered on 10- 
&lt;br/&gt;inch diameter discs attached to the pavilion.  We are also interested  
&lt;br/&gt;in considerably more ambitious creations: any pre-fabricated EL  
&lt;br/&gt;animation that will span lengths of ten feet or more.  Design  
&lt;br/&gt;submissions should be made in a PDF format and sent to:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;light-designs@burningman.com
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Honoraria are not offered in exchange for this work.  However, we will  
&lt;br/&gt;endeavor to retrieve any larger-scale light effect from the pavilion  
&lt;br/&gt;before the Man is burned.  The name of each contributing artist or  
&lt;br/&gt;group of artists will be featured on the 2009 Burning Man theme art  
&lt;br/&gt;web page and in this year's digital Burning Man Journal.  Please  
&lt;br/&gt;include your name, contact information and your locale, as well as any  
&lt;br/&gt;queries, with your proposal. The deadline for submissions is April 22,  
&lt;br/&gt;2009.&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Hey Philly Burners,
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Do you all know about Piss Clear, the Burner magazine, that was around for 13 years? It’s been called “the Vice Magazine of the playa” – sharp and funny with an alternative view of Black Rock City. I found out that RE/Search Publications has published BURNING MAN LIVE, which has the best of all 13 years (1994-2007), including “Best of Black Rock City,” “Sex and Drugs,” “Playa Fashion Do’s and Don’ts,” “You Know You’re a Burner When…” “Borg Wars,” interviews with Larry Harvey (Burning Man cofounder) and Harley DuBois (Director of Community Services), and introductions by Brian Doherty, Adrian Roberts, and Malderor. This book is 320 pages, and HUGE (8.5 by 11 inches) of pure Burning Man history– highly recommended – with really great articles and photos.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Just go to the link below to check out the book or make an order:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;www.researchpubs.com/Blog/
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;(it looks like the link is incomplete but it works. if you do have any problems, though, you can just go to www.researchpubs.com)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Anyway, it's an amazing book and I suggest you all check it out, if interested.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;NOTE: I found this message from another BM I'm a part of. I ordered the book -- loved it, talked to the woman who is spreading the word -- and now I'm spreading the word, too. This reminds me of the old BM days, as well as the more recent. It's great fun!
&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The PDF Planning Committee has met twice so far in 2009.  At the meeting held on January 18th, we set the calendar for 2009 planning meetings and ticket sales, voted to increase the number of hardship tickets available, and discussed several other organizational issues. At the meeting held on March 8th, event budgets were presented for discussion.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The next planning meeting will be held April 4th or 5th and we are looking for a host.  At this meeting we will vote on the Spring Event budget. The only requirements is a phone connection (PDF will even provide the conference phone).
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Remember that ALL MEMBERS of the PDF community are welcome to participate in planning meetings, in person or by conference call. Even if you can only attend one, we'd love to have your input.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;To get involved now, visit the PDF planning forum: http://www.playadelfuego.org/bbs/viewforum.php?f=5

&lt;br/&gt;Volunteers Needed!  PDF is 100% volunteer run, and it's never to early to think about how you can help. You can sign up online (more information will be coming) or at the event.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;A reminder to artists who have applied for Art Grants.  Check your
&lt;br/&gt;blinded email box!  We have comments and questions about several
&lt;br/&gt;projects.  If you have any problems with your blinded email box
&lt;br/&gt;contact the blinder via the same email address you applied with.
&lt;br/&gt;Do not email anyone directly as this could compromise anonymity.

&lt;br/&gt;**********
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;4. PDF Board of Directors - What's going on!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Board has been busy this Winter making sure that PDF has all that it needs to keep on keepin' on! Over the last few months, we have been compiling information for our annual post-retreat report, updating and renewing our insurance coverage, doing the legal/financial paperwork to maintain our non-profit status, and working to expand PDF's involvement in the greater community.  In January, we were able to co-sponsor the "Art of Change" inaugural ball in Washington, DC, with Artomatic. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;In more mundane news, we have a new Secretary, Joanna Barnum, and a new Treasurer, Maya Cook. Many thanks to Bink and Jamie Love who previously held those positions!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;**********
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;5. Exciting Content
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Woo! Exciting!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Would you like to see your words in the Burning Pony Express?  If you have any thoughts on PDF, Burning Man, self-expression, the arts, or anything related to the 10 Principles of Burning Man, we'd love to feature them here. You can be profound or profane.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;E-mail bpe-editor@playadelfuego.org if you are interested in contributing.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;**********

&lt;br/&gt;Burners,
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I am pleased to announce that Horizons psychedelics conference will be returning for its third year on September 25th, 26th and 27th, 2009.  Once again, it will be hosted in the historic Judson Memorial Church in New York City.  It will feature a Friday night reception and two days of presentations.  Speakers have not yet been announced and tickets are not yet on sale.  See details below for more information about Horizon's mission.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I would like to extend a very special thanks to the Burning Man community for its support of this event since its inception in 2007.  Horizons was originally borne out of conversations I had with psychedelic luminaries and fellow burners on the playa in 2006.  So many of you have helped create this event in every way possible-- helping setup and cleanup, lending equipment and expertise, sharing art, standing behind the podium and presenting, and of course, showing up to learn.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This Friday, join me for a performance of the Gamelatron in Brooklyn, the world's first and only fully robotic gamelan orchestra.  If you attended the Horizons 2008 reception, you are sure to remember it!  Details are below and tickets are on sale now.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Despite all that seems wrong in the world right now, 2009 is sure to be Horizons best year yet.  At a time when it has become clear that many of society's long-held assumptions have failed, we have a valuable opportunity and responsibility to explore new ideas.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Sincerely,
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Kevin Balktick

&lt;br/&gt;The Future's Stories of the Past
&lt;br/&gt;Friday March 6, 8pm, $10
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Gamelatron is the world's first and only fully robotic Gamelan Orchestra.  It features 117 mechanical mallet arms, controlled from a laptop computer, that strike traditional Javanese and Balinese bronze xylophones, gongs, cymbals and drums.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Future's Stories of the Past is a suite of music written by Kuffner for the Gamelatron. The music draws from composer Taylor Kuffner's years of musical study and training in Indonesia, while maintaining continuity to his current project as Zemi17 in the Brooklyn underground electronic music scene and New York City DJ culture.

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;HORIZONS: Perspectives on Psychedelics
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;September 25th, 26th &amp;amp; 27th, 2009
&lt;br/&gt;at Judson Memorial Church in New York City
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;http://horizonsnyc.org/
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Horizons is a annual forum for learning about psychedelics. Its goal is to open a fresh dialogue about psychedelics and rethink their role in medicine, culture, history, spirituality and art.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;In the 1950s and early 1960s, academic research with psychedelics yielded important discoveries in psychology and neuroscience. Just a few years later, they entered popular culture across North America, Europe and the world.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Questions about their safety, medical value, history and implications in politics and culture were unfortunately answered with numerous myths spread by both their users and the media. The millennial rave fever brought a similar wave of popularity and hysteria.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Recently, a renaissance in psychedelic research and dialogue has taken shape. Horizons brings together the brightest minds and boldest voices of this movement to share their insights.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Speakers have not yet been announced and tickets are not yet on sale.  If you would like to volunteer or have other questions, please contact info@horizonsnyc.org.

&lt;br/&gt;UNWASHED TOMATO (Unwashed Records / D-A-R-K Records, Philadelphia) 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;In the year 2025, earth sucks, hard. All the freaks have fled to the moon, leaving behind the masses of TV obsessed "suits and dildos". The Lunar Lounge, run by the infamous Doctor Randall, is an anarchic respite from the drudgery of earth. One day, while Andy, Dave and Rod were sitting around enjoying some molecularly enhanced water with Doctor Randall, the the earth completed the process of recycling itself by turning inside out. The final moment of this transformation caused a freak electromagnetic disruption which caused The Lunar Lounge and all inside, to be vomited into a time portal which carried them to earth at the turn of the 21st century. When they arrived, Andy, Dave and Rod realized that they had been transformed into dirty tomatoes. Strangely, no one else noticed. Andy and Dave had been transported a small dark room in which they started to channel their energy into psychedelic vibrations intended for the night hours. Rod was transported to the advance screening of AVPR, which he promptly walked out of before the previews finished. Then he made some bad ass music, and made a lot of people's heads feel funny. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The three reunited in the city of Philadelphia, PA in the summer of 2008. They remembered their experience in The Lunar Lounge with Doctor Randall, and decided to join forces to produce something. They are not sure quite what it is, but it sounds kinda like darkpsy and some other stuff. Ranging from deep and groovy, to dark and twisted, to fast and driving, their psychedelic sounds will transport you... somewhere! 
&lt;br/&gt;Watch out for the three-way collaboration between Andy "The Andy" Aylward (The Andychrist), David "Thirsty Turtle" Mostoller (800 Deathsticks / Kabayun) and Rod "Sneakey Cactus" O'Connor (Sixtycycles) as they prepare your brains for the impending terrestrial inversion!

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;CASTING COUPLES FOR A COMMERCIAL FEATURING THE LARGEST COLLECTION OF PEOPLE MAKING-OUT IN LOVE PARK... EVER!!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;THIS SUNDAY February 8th. The commercial is for the "Stay over in Philly" campaign and commissioned by the Philadelphia Department of Tourism and produced and directed by Ted Passon and All Ages Productions (http://www.tedpasson.com &amp;amp;lt;http://www.tedpasson.com/&gt; ). This commercial is for a new push of the  campaign with a special Valentine's Day twist. The filming takes place in LOVE Park and starts on one couple meeting at the Park. They immediately start kissing each other. The camera moves and we see another couple meeting and kissing . The camera continues to move and we see another kissing couple and another until we see a ridiculous number of couples all meeting and kissing at LOVE Park, as if everyone in Center City just stopped what they were doing and started making-out with each other. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;HOW CAN YOU HELP?
&lt;br/&gt;Come and makeout in LOVE Park for the commercial!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;What: Looking for couples (all races, ages, genders, etc. the more the merrier!) to make out on camera in LOVE Park.
&lt;br/&gt;Feel free to come as you are or in costume! We are looking for a wide range of outfits and looks including:
&lt;br/&gt;*Business professionals (suits)
&lt;br/&gt;*Bike messengers
&lt;br/&gt;*City Workers
&lt;br/&gt;*Police
&lt;br/&gt;*Park Rangers
&lt;br/&gt;*Students
&lt;br/&gt;*Rollerbladers
&lt;br/&gt;etc...
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Where: LOVE Park 15th and JFK
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;When: THIS SUNDAY February 8th. 
&lt;br/&gt;11:00am until 3:00pm
&lt;br/&gt;Because of the complicated nature of the shot (a single minute-long moving take) it may take up to four hours to rehearse and execute. If all goes well it will take less time.
&lt;br/&gt;If you want to be in the commercial you need to be on time.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;How: Just show up at LOVE Park at 15th and JFK on SUNDAY February 8th at 11:00am and register and you are in the commercial! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;ALL Participants will be notified when the commercial is online and will be sent a link.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If there are any questions please contact:

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Here's the press release.
&lt;br/&gt;----------------------------
&lt;br/&gt;Artomatic, Inc. and Playa del Fuego, Inc. – institutions of the mid-Atlantic arts community – have joined together to create this year’s most distinctive inaugural celebration, The Art of Change (www.artists-ball.org), on Jan. 20, 2009 at 8 pm. With the generous support of location sponsors The Warehouse Arts Complex (www.warehousetheater.com) and Douglas Development (www.douglasdevelopment.com), this event brings Washington, D.C., a unique opportunity to celebrate the inauguration of Barack Obama as President.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Tickets are available immediately for $50 at www.artistsball.org
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Occupying three separate venues on the 1000 block of 7th Street, NW in downtown Washington D.C., The Art of Change will feature visual and performing arts, multiple dance floors, fire dancing and live music. DJs from across the mid-Atlantic region will be spinning an eclectic mix of musical styles on two dance floors, and in The Art of Change Galleries, displaying artworks created for this celebration. The Variety Stage will showcase performances all night long, including live music, comedy, belly dancing and spoken word poetry. And outside, attendees will enjoy fire-dance performances while dancing to up-and-coming DJs in the heated White Tent.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;George C. Koch, chair of Artomatic, Inc.:
&lt;br/&gt;“The Art of Change is an example of the collaborative spirit within the creative community and it speaks to the desire of artists to be a full partner in the change that is taking place in our country and our community. The Art of Change brings together the progressive and creative communities to support a new vision for our creative economy.”
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Dave Diller, president of Playa del Fuego, Inc.:
&lt;br/&gt;"We're so glad to be working in partnership with Artomatic and all of The Art of Change supporting organizations from across D.C.'s arts communities. Our organizations have long sought to break down the barriers to participation in the realm of art, and with this celebratory event we look forward to a bold new era of similar efforts in the realm of government."
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;In the spirit of community organizing and collaboration that President-elect Obama has come to represent, The Art of Change is being planned in collaboration with a number of supporting organizations. These include DC Burners, Dance Afire, Bethesda Theatre, Cultural Attaché, Washington Project for the Arts, 4&amp;amp;9 Productions LLC, Brightest Young Things, The Pink Line Project, Capitol Riverfront BID, and Pecha Kucha.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This collaborative ethic also facilitates social engagement by making us all responsible for the creation and maintenance of our shared culture. We encourage all attendees to contribute by performing, displaying art, volunteering, or donating to make this event a success. For more information visit www.artists-ball.org. &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;After their successful journey to a mysteries dessert island paradise in late Summer, Winkel &amp;amp; Balktick returned to their laboratory, determined to pursue the holy grail of time travel experiences. All through the Autumn, they experimented and tinkered. Time travel engineers from every age and nation came to visit them and offer their counsel, costumes, gifts and warnings.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Winkel &amp;amp; Balktick's plan shocked and frightened many of them. The time sages of ancient Greece feared that like Icarus, they would fly too close to the sun. The scribes of Babylon warned them that their Tower of Babel would fall. The Voodoo priests assured them that the Baron Samedi would not allow them to pass into the realm of the afterlife.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;But still... they pressed on with their plan for New Year's Eve 2009. They dared to turn the dials and slides and switches and knobs all the way back, to the very beginning. On December 31st 2008 at 10pm, the Winkel &amp;amp; Balktick Time Engine was re-engaged and set out to explore the Mysteries of Creation, the epic tales that speak of the birth of the universe, plants, trees, beasts, spirits, humans and time itself. From the Garden of Eden, the paradise of humanly ignorance, to Ginnungagap, the endless void between the lands of ice and fire, they charted a most ambitious and exciting course.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The crew featured New York City's most experiences and imaginative chrononauts, who provided ample entertainment on the long journey with live music, DJs, dancing, performances, art installations, activities, games, debauchery, indulgence and surprises. Their time vessel was a vast and heretofore unmolested 13,000 square foot craft in a most convenient location.
&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;Christer started his career in 1996 working as a light technician at major clubs and underground parties in Norway. His first true epiphany came in the shape and form of the album “Return to the Source – The Chakra Journey”, which drove his interest for music even further down the electronic spiral highway. Before relocating to Mexico in 2006, Christer helped throw the successful psyparties "Limboland" in Norway. He is a label DJ for Shiva Space Technology and Mechanik Records and released the compilation “Mental Displacement” on Shiva Space Technology in March 2006. Christer has earned himself the reputation of being a versatile DJ, his sets provide the audience with a wide and exciting array of psychedelic trance with one main intention: to make people dance.

&lt;br/&gt;We hope some of the Philly burners will make it to Frostburn - it was a lot of fun last year - Here are some pics http://www.flickr.com/photos/elizabethkeating/sets/72157603986792048/?page=4 (Courtesy of Beth Keating)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We have electric hookups so that you can plug in electric blankets and heaters. Last year that's what I did and I was fine (and I HATE the cold). We'll be posting some tips on cold weather camping on the website soon - but you also could rent a RV - they are cheap this time of the year. I believe you can rent one for about $150/night - which is not so bad if you can sleep 4-6 people in them.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Imagine the climatic opposite of Burning Man: a frozen forest where 
&lt;br/&gt;ice and snow join fire and steam as viable art forms; where radical 
&lt;br/&gt;self-reliance and communal effort are critical for human
&lt;br/&gt;survival.
&lt;br/&gt; 
&lt;br/&gt;Envision an event where huddled masses and daring individuals venture 
&lt;br/&gt;from warm quarters into the chilled air, discovering participatory 
&lt;br/&gt;art and radical self-expression no matter which way they
&lt;br/&gt;turn.
&lt;br/&gt; 
&lt;br/&gt;Dream of a retreat just when you need it most: in the middle of 
&lt;br/&gt;winter, six months from your annual pilgrimage to the Black
&lt;br/&gt;Rock Desert.
&lt;br/&gt; 
&lt;br/&gt;Escape for a weekend to an environment that is harsh, yet comfortable. 
&lt;br/&gt;Familiar, with a radical new twist. A place to warm your 
&lt;br/&gt;heart and soul and express your creativity in ways the
&lt;br/&gt;Playa could never allow.
&lt;br/&gt; 
&lt;br/&gt;Help us invent a great weekend of community, immediacy and art.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;So you want to come to the 1st Post Burning Man / Pre-Playa del Fuego Bike Parade ?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Well here is the skinny short and sweet:
&lt;br/&gt;We will all meet up on Sunday, Oct 5th at the Art Museum steps at 4:30. About 5 pm we will head off making a few stops such as Love Park, Rittenhouse Square and end the evening with drinks and light fare most likely at Tattooed Mom's on South Street about 7-8:00 (the exact bar will be decided by the time the reminder email goes out)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;You are welcome to join us at any point on the parade or at our final destination for drinks, but please remember this IS a costume event, if you can't dress up due to some extraordinary lameness then don't come.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Important things to know:
&lt;br/&gt;-All are required to come in their best costume/ Playa fabulous/ weirdo art outfits and be on bike or other wheeled machines that operate at moderate bike speeds.
&lt;br/&gt;-Bring a bike lock or you'll be walking home.
&lt;br/&gt;-Bring proper lighting for you and your bike or you'll be going home in an ambulance.
&lt;br/&gt;-You can't under decorate your bike. It can be decorated and lit to any and all extremes possible. Consider it part of your costume
&lt;br/&gt;-Remember to design or modify your costume to be appropriate for riding a bike, therefore avoiding unnecessary costume and personal injury.
&lt;br/&gt;-This is a no fire event
&lt;br/&gt; 
&lt;br/&gt;The event will be postponed in case of ill weather
&lt;br/&gt;Please forward to any and all friends and acquaintances that might like to participate 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;See you all Sunday,
&lt;br/&gt;Jeremy
&lt;br/&gt;( some may know by my Playa Name: Jeremy )&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Depending on where you are mailing from it is probably about time to send off your cards, letters, and care packages to loved ones in Black Rock City!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;When mailing to Black Rock City  please address your playa-bound mail as completely as possible in this format to increase the odds of it being received:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;CAMPER'S PLAYA NAME or REAL NAME ...or better, both.
&lt;br/&gt;CAMP NAME ...and any helpful descriptions of street facade, tents, or large features that might be at this location to help the postie find the addressee
&lt;br/&gt;CAMP ADDRESS ...as close as you can get (example: 9:35 and Hummer) &amp;amp;/or nearest cross-street, and even Man-side or mountain-side (if you know)
&lt;br/&gt;C/O BRCPO
&lt;br/&gt;Burning Man
&lt;br/&gt;Gerlach, NV 89412
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;...and include a return address, just in case.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Please remember no postage stamps are sold at the BRCPO at Center Camp, so bring postage stamps for mailing postcards (postcards from Burning Man are available as gifts at the BRCPO at Center Camp) and letters. If you bring extras for others then your gift of stamps is always appreciated.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;For instructions on sending registered and certified mail to BRC or for information on the 2008 Burning Man postmark, gift postcards, and other topics please visit the Black Rock City Post Office at Center Camp website, www.blackrockcitypostoffice.org
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Please share this note with others.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;i'd like to get started using some solar energy. what i'm looking for is something simple to start with, like how to power a few strings of x-mas lights. can anyone recommend what/where i should purchase to make this happen? i need the most basic answers at this point and the most straight forward way to do this. when i'm more familiar with how it all works i can branch out into 'tinkering' and more creative ideas.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;for now: where to purchase everything i may need to power a few strings of lights? what exactly should i purchase? like maybe there's a kit that would have everything i need to get started, one comes with very good instructions.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;thanx for your help and suggestions!

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;i have my ticket for BM through conclave. my BF and are very very tight on funds - we got him a ticket off an acquaintance for only $200! but it got lost in the mail :(  so - we are filing a claim (it was registered/insured with USPS) but won't get the money for a long time.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;if anyone has a spare ticket, we're hoping to find one around $240-250 or less (and willing to barter as well), please let me know! we are both near/in philly pretty often and would love to get it in person rather than trust any delivery service. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;thanks!!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;(i contacted calamity jane and hers is sold already. before anyone stated the obvious ;o)&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Thank you to Ferrer Construction for building the outdoor dancefloors &amp;amp; setting up and tearing down.  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The party did indeed go off! We met everyone who came and made some great new friends as well as spent time catching up with old ones. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The party ran from about 1pm until we shut the music off at 8pm.  We spent the next hour and a half cleaning up. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;As a courtesy to our DJ friends we called the final set of DJs to thank them for their support and dedication to us, the music, and to the event.  We all agreed that we will continue to work together to support, promote, and produce great music and events.  This event was no exception.  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Thank you again to all who supported and for all the really positive people who believe in events like this one.  Our money, time, and effort was well spent as always when we get positive support backed by action!  THANK YOU!
