Fire up the Ovens!
The last evening of the event always features the now-traditional ritual of burning artwork. In addition, throughout the many incarnations of the temple, it has been customary for worshippers to leave their own messages carved into the piece’s surfaces. The camp’s basic configuration evolved naturally out of a fire circle.
Vehicles with Mutant DNA
Creatively modified motorised vehicles, known as Mutant Vehicles, are custom-made for the Burning Man festival. The organisers of the Burning Man festival came up with the name “Mutant Vehicle” to distinguish a specific subset of “Art Cars” that went beyond simple embellishment. Minimally modified cars and trucks whose sole purpose is to transport members are strongly discouraged.
