If you are interested in co-creating our very special night on
November 15th in Dublin, we welcome you. Volunteering for
Decompression is an exciting and rewarding way to immerse yourself in
the the Burning Man community here in Ireland, to meet new people and
experience something very special.

Of course we need our experienced burners to come out and bring their
insight & experience. But we also want to put the call out there to
those new to our community. If you haven't been to the playa before
or interacted with the rest of us here, this is an *excellent* way of
getting to know us, what we do, learn about our values and our unique
brand of craic!

We need enthusiastic volunteers to help with all aspects of our
decompression.

* For general interest, contact our Minister of Hype and
Indoctrination, Seanan O'Rourke at seanan79@hotmail.com

* To help decorate this amazing venue, contact Decor Team Coordinator
Ines Billings at ines_billings@yahoo.co.uk

* We're looking for a Leave No Trace co-ordinator, someone who can
communicate this important ethic to our mixed crowd. Contact Event
Coordinator Randy Ralston at dreamer@runbox.com

* If you're a fire performer and would like to contribute your skills,
contact Fire Performance & Safety Coordinator Michelle Crawford at minishelly@hotmail.com

* If you are a healer or bodyworker and want to share some of your
time and energy on the night, contact Healing Hands Coordinator Mel
Cronin at mel.cronin@gmail.com

We would also like to invite anyone working in the field of
interactive, electronic, or video/sound art to get involved.

Here's an idea of the kinds of stuff we'd like to see:

Interactive pieces of all decriptions
Inflatables
LED works of every type
Organic structures
Light & laser based installations
Sonic Installations of widely varying function & effect
Flame effects
Mathematical/CAD structures & engineering follies of every flavour

If anyone has pre-existing work that they think would play well at
Smokin' Craic!, that they would like to present to a very appreciative
audience to giddily enjoy, and that is of a sufficiently robust nature
to survive within a non-gallery space for at least eight hours, please
contact Ines Billings at ines_billings@yahoo.co.uk

* Non-performance sound artists should contact Sound Art Coordinator
Clifton Evans at clifton.evans@gmail.com

* If you would like to VJ or present projected work, please contact
Video God Diarmo Horkan at averylargenumber@gmail.com

For 'non-of-the-above' queries contact Randy Ralston at dreamer@runbox.com

Join the others in our great volunteer/participant team who have a
great attitude, an open mind, and a sense of fun, giving of themselves
to help create meaningful experiences for others in our community. It
is its own reward.
