Any Burners in Tucson?

lunarose — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 16:28:50 GMT

Hello lovely Burners, I am moving to Tucson, Arizona in Jan. for about 5 or 6 months, and I'm looking for some people to connect with. Besides my family that's already out there, I don't know anyone else. Therefore, I'm a little nervous as to how to go about meeting people. You can post on here or send me a message if you'd like. Thanks. :)

Peace and Love,
Lisa

What's going on in Sedona?

Dolphin — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 23:50:58 GMT

Aloha,
I'm in town for the next month or two, house/cat sitting, and looking for things to do..burners to connect with.
I'm spending most of my time writing up material for Dream Skills workshops, website, and book series....and I gotta unplug!

I have my longstaff with me, though this town is pretty tight on fires, understandably...

I love drumming, fire, dreaming, electric & world beat tunes, and prefer 'house party' gatherings of conscious folk, to the bar scene.

Hope to hear from you :)

dreaming deeply

Early admissions pass requests: we were one of 19% of theme camps shut out

William — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 21:50:33 GMT

Hi guys,

We just got news that we were cut from camp placement. This means, among other
things that we lost our 5 early admission passes.

We had a very tough couple of weeks leading up to the due date for the camp
plans and they sucked, though our camp is actually really great. For this reason
when they ran out of assigned space we didn't make the cut.. actually there were an alarming number of camps that didn't make the cut btw... though we spend a
substantial portion of our tax return buying the 4,000 condoms that we are
bringing to give away, and spend hundreds of hours in the last couple of years
putting together the other art and engineersnig projects and collecting the
other 1000 plus condoms and dental dams etc. from other public sources. Etc etc.
So you see REALLY our camp did not suck, we have two big projects plus a 24/7
condom bar... prolly not a bad thing at b-man right?

So... what would help is if anyone out there has as many as 5 or as few as 2
early admission passes so that we can stake things out and get our stuff set up
in a staging area (which might become our camp come monday at 12:01 if all goes
well.

We would be willing to collect your space for you if you for any reason can't be
there until Monday despite early admission plans... or if you just have more
early admissions than you need... and of course we would be happy to pitch in a
bit in whatever capacity setting up you might need.

If you can hook us up... let us know... you would be going a long way to correct
a big, big mistake that the B-man org has committed.

Cheers,

Prudence and MildBill

Toast? (info/transpo)

DatiG — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 01:09:47 GMT

So a friend of mine (also in the LA area (souther california) with me) went ahead and got us tickets for Toast... I've no problem driving out there, but from what I read on the site, my van may not be in the mood to deal with the last leg.

Anyone out there who can think of something that may be of assistance? Maybe a place (house or something) I could drive do, park van and ride with to event?

It'd be me and my buddy Awno (available for viewing, non-exclusively, at my friends list... free of charge), and as much supplies as you'd be comfortable with. I gots lots, but can travel lightly, if it be the need for me to do so...

That's all for now. Just wanted to get it out there asap and allow time for things to snowball a bit...

Thanks for your time...

Do all things in Goodness
Have a nice day

New relationship support group in Tucson

XenitH — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 05:51:51 GMT

For as long as I can remember I have been considered a “Hopeless romantic”. I jumped from one long-term relationship to another with short bursts of lust in-between. I never cheated on my partners, and I never lied either. Oddly enough this continued to be problematic in my relationships!

Something never quite felt right to me. Why is it I still get interests or crushes on others no matter how head-over-heels IN LOVE I am with my girlfriend? If sharing love with one person feels great, what would it feel like sharing love with more than one person? Are we truly that controlled by jealousy and other insecurities that we can’t go to the depths of our emotions with more than one person?

Everywhere I looked society was telling me the “right” way to experience deep intimate connections. That “right way” is with intense jealous and controlling passion. Is our society really that isolated and closed-minded?

I constantly challenged every societal norm I ever clashed with, so why “go with the flow” if my heart constantly feels restricted?

Needless to say over seven years ago I found out thousands of individuals in the U.S. share my prospective. Not only that, but Monogamy (lifelong commitments between two individuals) is actually a rarity when you consider the rest of the world and bonding patterns of other species.

How many others feel this way but don’t have access to these resources? How many people are in my town and could benefit from hearing similar prospectives from others like them? Where do I go to get help from others like me?

Well it is time to find out!

Repo! The Genetic Opera--One Night Only At Chandler Cinemas

morphiaflow — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 22:49:17 GMT

You’ve heard about it. You’ve requested it. The buzz has been killing you. And now, it’s our pleasure to announce that REPO! THE GENETIC OPERA is coming to Chandler Cinemas for ONE NIGHT ONLY!

Thursday, December 4th, 10PM SHOW! (IF THIS SELLS OUT THERE WILL BE AN ENCORE MIDNIGHT ENGAGEMENT)

ADVANCE TICKETS AVAILABLE NOW AT https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/49425

This will sell out, do not wait! No comps, passes or discounts. Reserve yours now, they are going fast!

Strictly 17+!

After the success of the first REPO! Road Tour...they are hitting the road again! First stop Phoenix, Arizona! THIS IS THE ONLY AZ TOUR DATE, AS PART OF THIS SPECIAL EXTENDED ROAD TOUR!!! DIRECTOR DARREN BOUSMAN AND COMPOSER/CREATOR TERRANCE ZDUNICH WILL BE AT THE SCREENING!

In the year 2056 – the not so distant future – an epidemic of organ failures devastates the planet. Out of the tragedy, a savior emerges: GeneCo, a biotech company that offers organ transplants… for a price. Those who miss their payments are scheduled for repossession and hunted by villainous Repo Men.

In a world where surgery addicts are hooked on painkilling drugs and murder is sanctioned by law, a sheltered young girl searches for the cure to her own rare disease as well as information about her family’s mysterious history. After being sucked into the haunting world of GeneCo, she is unable to turn back, as all of her questions will be answered at the wildly anticipated spectacular event: The Genetic Opera.

Directed by Darren Lynn Bousman (SAW II, SAW III, SAW IV) and produced by Twisted Pictures and Lionsgate, this futuristic horror rock opera stars Paul Sorvino (GOODFELLAS), Alexa Vega (SPY KIDS), Paris Hilton (HOUSE OF WAX), Anthony Head (TV’s "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"), Bill Moseley (THE DEVIL’S REJECTS), Ogre (from the band Skinny Puppy) and world-renowned opera singer Sarah Brightman (Broadway’s "Phantom of the Opera"). By fusing ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW and BLADE RUNNER, this unique production will modernize the "rock opera" genre with original music and rich, dark production design.

This is NOT your parents’ opera… So cool, they can only show it one theatre at a time!

And Chandler Cinemas is the PERFECT place to give it a home in the Valley!

Burn Toast Announcement V-7, #1

Rockstar — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 20:23:07 GMT

Toast!
The 8th Annual Arizona Regional Burn
May 7th-10th 2009.
Witch Well, Arizona

www.toast-town.org

---------------------------------------------------------------
What is Toast?

The Short version;
Toast is an interactive community of artists camping out over four
days in the high desert of East central Arizona, creating,
collaborating and participating.

Toast!, the Arizona Burn is about self reliance, self expression and
creativity in an environment where we celebrate the differences in
people instead of ridiculing them. More importantly, you as an
attendee create what the event is. Individual and group participation
and creativity is what Toast! is about. Each person has unique
talents-some of us don't define ourselves as artists, but everyone
has some talent or skill to offer as a participant at this event. We
offer you the opportunity to explore those skills and talents with
us. Remember, don't come to be entertained... You are the
entertainment!

More about that and how you can also be part of Toast! can be found
at this link.
http://www.toast-town.org/toast/page.php?2

--------------------------------------------------------------------

TICKETS,TICKETS,TICKETS

Don't wait, We need you to purchase Toast tickets as soon as you are
able. All Tickets are currently $35.00 each.
Note, he price doubles as the event grows near, Don't wait.
We don't want you to pay the higher price. We want you to buy them at
the lower price level. Yes really we do. It makes our lives much
easier planning the event if you buy these tickets sooner and at the
lower price.

Details are here.
http://www.toast-town.org/toast/page.php?9

Note there are changes from last year. Please read it carefully
before ordering.Did we mention ordering tickets as soon as you can?
Yeah we did, but really we would appreciate that.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Toast Man Art party and fundraiser.

If you cant make this event and would still like to help out,
or simply need directions,

Contact Kinfinity
Kate2141@hotmail.com

Details:

Hey all you beautiful people! As you know, Toast is right around the
corner and what better way to get ready for it than, a party!
This won't be just any party though, it's a benefit party for Todd,
maker of the huge, gorgeous, amazing, spectacular TOAST MAN! He works
so hard every year to create this wonderful gift for all of us and I
know he would appreciate a little thank you. So, I ask you all to
make the trip to Tucson on March 14th 2009 for the First (possibly)
Annual Toast Man Benefit Party!

This party will be held at the lovely Lytyl and Eric's house and all
of you who have been there in the past know that there is plenty of
room for fire performance, art pieces, dancing and just flat out fun-
ness.

There will be a sound system provided and I've asked Ismist to DJ but
I'm sure there will be room for others, you'll have to work out times
amongst yourselves.

This will be a burner type party so all rules apply as such. BOYE (I
will be providing some delicious French toast inspired drinks for as
long as they last), Leave No Trace, etc. Also, little ones should be
put to bed before 9pm as to avoid any underage drinking situations.
Since it's on a Saturday, if you decide to arrive any earlier than 4-
5pm you will be put to work helping clean up the fire areas, seating
areas, setting up the bar area etc. Feel free to help where you can!
Donations will be accepted at any time, though they are not required.

This is a benefit party for Todd though so if you have something to
donate whether it be money, time, supplies (wood, paint, metal,
lighting etc) they will be greatly appreciated I'm sure.
This is going to be somewhat of a surprise to Todd, since I didn't
tell him we're doing this yet so I'd like to keep it a bit of a
surprise, though, posting it here I'm not sure if that will be the
case.

Hoping to see many of you in a couple weeks!
Please feel free to email me off list with any questions and I can
forward them to Lytyl and Eric if needed, as they hardly check here.
Also, I'm waiting to hear back from Lytyl so I can post their address
information. Should be up tomorrow.

Thanks and a big Happaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay Toast! To you all!!

Kinfinity

NYE 09...

rubenruben — Thu, 25 Dec 2008 00:51:37 GMT

We (Flam Chen) are celebrating and performing in Bisbee for NYE.
Come down and participate in a burningman kinda style.
Like the good old days, we are going to parade through the streets flash mob style and converge the gathering to the park for a finale and countdown with live music (metro the gnome), video dj animations (antralhead video), stilts, and humans suspended 100 feet in the air from helium balloons.
Our theme is "Chinese New Year" so come in your oriental-ish costumes and participate with us.
I remember partying with all you burners down in Bisbee before *Happy* moved away.
Let's make the magic happen again!!!

Harmonic ConcorDance...Nov. 7th-9th

yardman_1 — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 14:47:21 GMT

Hi, Yardz here,
just thought I'd send you the info on the next psy gathering we
are doing...
See ya'll out there.
********************************************************************************

November 7, 8 & 9, 2008

Cosmic Sea Productions, Overmind Works, Stage 6 & Stimulate Productions present:

Harmonic ConcorDance 2

A gathering of friends and family under the stars, to celebrate the beauty and
richness that is life and music.

We come together in the spirit of community and the meaningful exchange of ideas
and values, and in acceptance of our diversity and utilization of our respective
talents and abilities. We welcome any peaceful individuals that are respectful
toward themselves and others, and that have positivity to contribute. We
encourage participation and input from all in attendance.

For more about the concept of Harmonic Concordance and the alignment (planetary
and universally) that it represents, visit this site:

http://www.harmonicconcordance.com

Line up includes:

Freaky Chakra

Nick Synergy
Spyder
Hahn The Barbarian
Matty
Miss Jag
Steve Edwards
D Frag vs. Metatron
Brook B vs. Steve Kerr

VJs:

Endo
MCP
7G
Vostek

This event is Fire Performance friendly, and all fire performers are welcome to
perform. Bring your own fuel, tools, and safety gear. We will have a limited
supply on hand, for those performers from out of town and cannot travel with
any. Please do not bring any pyrotechnics or fire works.

Tickets available through OMW, Cosmic Sea, Stage 6 & Stimulate.

$10 donation for the day, $20 donation for the weekend.
Map point available with donation! If you are from out-of-town, let us know (and
tell us something about yourself) and we'll make arrangements to get you
directions.

Paypal is a great way to guarantee a spot as space and capacity is limited!

Use: goa@overmindworks.com, spyderlicious@hotmail.com or syntax@cox.net to make
donations.
Keep your receipts!

We encourage you to use the following link for all donations:

https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=282496

Rain or Shine. Plan accordingly.

21+ only. Minors welcome only if accompanied by parent(s) or legal guardian(s).
We'll check IDs.

We STRONGLY encourage you to carpool - it saves money on gas, helps us allow
PLENTY of room for parking, and establishes a greater sense of adventure among
friends. We SEVERELY encourage everyone to use vehicles with high ground
clearance (trucks, SUVs, Subarus) - we have a few locations to choose from
(weather and conditions depending), and some of them entail crossing washes and
driving on rocky roads. DO NOT bring a compact car (Honda) unless you have
experience with these kinds of roads (properly avoiding rocks, not letting
yourself get high-centered, etc). DO NOT bring lowered vehicles AT ALL. We
very well may not be able to tow you out of any sticky, and we'd really rather
not have to. Traveling to a spot with cellular signal to call for help may
entail traveling at least 5 miles. You have all been warned.

We also adamantly request that you bring the following items:

Water
Food
Ice
First Aid
Trash Bags
Firewood
Tents
Tarps
Sun Shades & Rain Shelter (we'll have some, but more is always good)
Chairs
Snakebite Kits (we won't have enough for everyone and you never know what will
happen)
Bug Spray (if desired)
Clothes for Warm AND Cold Weather

Do NOT bring:

Drugs
Weapons
Malice
Minors unaccompanied by parent or legal guardian
Congressmen

newb needing housing... Tucson

jinxcat — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 23:29:27 GMT

Hey all! I just moved to Tucson and am looking for housing. I really would love to have a place that housed fellow burners so we'll see what happens. About me, well, check out my profile, but it is somewhat dated these days as Tribe has been down almost every time I am online... But the critical pieces are there...

I moved to arizona to work with americorps, and I am doing a project I am highly invested in and can not wait to spend my year here- I am in a very optimistic and enthusiastic part of my life at the moment.

What I am lookign for- nothing over 400 (including utilities) but as I am volunteering the living stipend I recieve is not much, so the cheaper I find the more relaxed I will be. Somethign close to my work with is silverbell and st. marys. A very relaxed, open environment, with social roommates. Something furnished would be great as I have no furniture.

So tribe me if you know anyone with soemthing, or better yet these days, email me kojishi.dae@gmail.com

So Cal Decom

Hisham — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 18:20:41 GMT

Just received from Mission Control. Our latest transmission has some new information in it. Please read carefully.

The Techno-Magicians at Mission Control have selected the launch site for the
Mission to Mars Southern California Decom. There was some early confusion due
to metric vs. standard measurements, but now all Techno-Magicians are using the
same ruler, and everything has been coordinated.
We have teamed up with the people at TeleMagica Grounds, who have the
Magica-Technology to Teleport us to Mars on schedule.

The launch site is in Jacumba, about 80 miles east of downtown SD just off the 8
freeway. As you go south past the onion fields, and through the town of Jacumba,
there may be a slight shimmer in the air when you enter the teleportation field. Do
not be alarmed, it is just the feeling of going to a new home for the first time.

Once you have passed the Greeters you will be transported to a magical landing site
on Mars, TeleMagica. The TeleMagicians have scouted the landing site, and
discovered some Sacred Land, a Pyramid, left by the ancients, some sculptures, and
an ancient Martian Rail Road track along with some rail cars. There is also a large
section of the landing site that has not been terraformed, and will provide a great
space for tent camping.

Book your flight soon! All of the $20 tickets have been sold, and the $40 tickets are
running out quickly. Please go to www.socalde.com to reserve your seat. All tickets
are purchased through PayPal. If you do not have a credit card or bank account for
PayPal to use, please contact Mission Control for alternate payment methods.

It appears that the ancients were expecting us. It also appears that the ancients
were fascinated with art, and want their world to be filled with art. They have left
instructions, and oddly, $1,500 to assist Earthlings in bringing their art to Mars.

Please see the art grants information on www.socalde.com for information about how
you can receive an art grant. The last (Earth)day to submit a proposal is
9/15 – This coming (Earth)Monday.

Mission Control would also like to plan for any art, theme camps, fire, Recreational
Space Vehicles, Performers looking for a place to perform, any activities or
performances, or anything else they may need to plan for. Please go to
www.socalde.com and look for questionnaires related to these items. Mission
Control will place all art and theme camps as best fits the need and the landing site.

The Tele-Magicians were able to create a bubble of Earth air on Mars for our
comfort, but the space is limited and some of the landing area is sacred or very
fragile, so no mutant vehicles or bicycles will be allowed to roam the site during the
mission. Stationary Mutant vehicles are welcome, and should use the theme camp or
art questionnaire.

For more information, please go to www.socalde.com.
Martians are friendly and hard working people, but they could use some help with
various activities. If you would like to volunteer, please complete the volunteer
questionnaire at www.socalde.com

Thank you,
Mission Control

Pre BM event/festival in AZ?

Is there anything out there that is a good warm up to BM? This will be my first BM, but not new to the festival scene. I need a diversion in life and little more excitement. I play drums but haven't done circles for a long time since I feel I make drums better than I play them.

Anyway, we still have room for 10 to 15 participants in the camp.
Current number is 25, we have room for 35 to 40 total.

Sooooo...if you don't mind fire, loud music, lots 'o booze, a metric shit ton of jackassery, the occasional dive-by fuck-yer-day from DPW, eurotrash espionage, lamplighter refugees...
...and all sorts of other crazy-ass Burning Man kinda stuff...
...Hit us up...We'd love to have you camp with us!!

Drum prep for BM

Doug — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 13:38:25 GMT

Being a newbie at the BM scene I'm sure most ppl already have their rythem thumpers already primed, however if there is anyone out there that might need their drum reskinned or just tightened either before of while at BM drop me a line.

I work mainly on Djembes and Asheikos, but can usually work on most drums it not repairing them totally at least getting them through an event long enough to play.

Peace

Afterburn notes

nikO — Mon, 12 May 2008 22:19:51 GMT

hey all... thanks for the fun.

Out of 4 regional's I've played at, I gotta admit that ya'lls keep a clean site.

I went out to work towards my boy scout servicing badge on Sunday and a touch monday, and It was damn clean.

The burn's were well cleaned up and I found minimal moop.

The one thing that gave a concentration of moop were firecrackers... but it wasn't too excessive.

So thanks, and I look forwards to playing w/ you soon.

YOGA RETREAT with THE PEACH RETREAT
Instructor Joanna Carichner

My goal is to make each class a journey. We begin by creating safe, sacred space through intention, chanting and meditation. Then we share the experience of opening ourselves to prana and allow transformation to occur. We then close the journey and awaken into our lives, more free. Visit her site http://www.joannacarichner.com/
We will have an opening ceremony on Friday night to set our intentions and create sacred space. It would be great to have everyone there.

The summer is our main fruit season here at WSC although we have some kind of fruit available every month of the year. If the timing works we hope to have plenty of peaches so we are calling this THE PEACH RETREAT.

We have a small 18' above ground pool to cool off in and if needed indoor space for yoga. The sauna is available (some people like to do sweats this time of year) outdoor & indoor showers. We will also have areas with misters to take the heat off if needed.

Please bring a towel for the shower and another if you want to use the sauna. Bring your own tent, sleeping bags and flashlights for camping. There is limited indoor space If you want to rent a small dome for the weekend do it early, prices below in payment area.

We will provide 5 simple vegan meals. A dinner on Friday, breakfast, lunch & dinner Saturday and breakfast again on Sunday. If you arrive early or stay longer you are welcome to cook additional meals in our community kitchen. Look around the website it will answer most of your questions. If you have questions about WSC you can email info@windspiritcommuity.org Driving directions can be found here DIRECTIONS TO WIND SPIRIT

First Tuesdays are Burner Tuesdays!

chromatest — Fri, 25 Apr 2008 05:22:51 GMT

My original post had the wrong date.... May 1st is a Thursday.. so.. May 6th is the first First Tuesday aka Burner Tuesday!

(x-posted for Trevor)

Howdy all,

So one of the most common things asked of me on Tuesday these days is
"Where are the rest of the burners?". This has almost become amusing to
me since it's not uncommon for the people who asked to leave and have a
few more stroll in a few minutes later asking the same question... and
repeat, you get the idea. It has also occured to us that we have a great
venue for people to show off there fabulous work. So we have decided to
make a once a month burner night!

Starting next month the first Tuesday of every month is burner Tuesday
at Fat Tuesday! We will be having a featured burner artist showing off
there work each month and Burner DJs all night long.

The idea of this night is to get YOU to participate. You dont have to be
the featured artist to bring stuff to share. We are working on getting
permission to do fire stuffs and it's looking good. Anything that will
work in a bar type venue is welcome! Most of all we want to see your
shining face help make this community happen.

So you want to be a featured artist or DJ. Excellent! Just drop us an email.

On the first one (May 6th) our feature is the lovely Corinne AKA
Krinabelle. If you have never seen her work be prepared to be amazed. I
have been told there will be snake skin involved!

Lets bring some culture back to Tempe!

--Trevor

ISO AZ CJ Burners for meetup

Tue, 29 Apr 2008 06:17:44 GMT

ok-if you understood the subject line, chances are you're in the right place!

i'm looking to start a Contact Juggling meetup in Tucson or PHX and was hoping some burner folks would be interested. if you are unfamiliar with CJ check out this video of one of my tribe friends Dawn-she's awesome!

http://youtube.com/watch?v=sIUcLDcIIF8&feature=related

i've been practicing for a few months and have some basic moves down, but am looking to meet some more experienced CJ'ers to broaden my horizons. I live about 2 hours from Tucson and 3 hours from PHX so i would be limited to a bi-weekly or monthly meetup, but i would love the chance to help organize a tight knit community in support of this incredible art form.

if you know nothing of CJing or are a complete novice, feel free to contact me! i am closer to being a novice than an expert myself so i welcome the opportunity to teach what little i know...you will likely teach me something as well so i whole-heartedly encourage it :) in addition to my limited insights, i can also let beginners borrow a couple DVD's i have to get them started as well. thanks in advance for your time-hope to talk to you soon!

be well

David

Special events next two Tuesdays

Kodama — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 06:27:14 GMT

As many of you know Chromatest and myself are DJs at Fat Tuesday on Mill ave (in Tempe). We spin there every Tuesday but the next two Tuesdays are going to be special events you cats might enjoy.

This coming Tuesday (Apr 29) we are having DJs Louder and Matty as our guests. What is special about this is Louder is the biggest breaks DJ in the valley but he will be playing House. Also, Matty is one of the biggest House DJs in the valley but he will be playing breaks. They both are really great guys and a really fun crowd follows each of them. It should be highly entertaining watching them play each other's music.

The Tuesday after that (May 6) Krinabelle, a local artist is doing an art show. She is known for mixing mediums to obtain really wild results. The first Tuesday of the month is also "Burner Tuesday" when a lot of the Burningman folk come out. If you are not super connected with us and live in Phoenix, this would be a great night to meet other crazy burner folk!

They both have different spins and they should both be fun and I hope to see some of you there!

Have you seen the banana suit man?

Julie — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 09:37:52 GMT

I'm looking for a man who dresses in a banana suit. He was spotted at Tour de Fat, then an item of his (or one of his friends) was found on the ground (not a hammock). This very same banana man was also at Burning Man last year.

Please be on the lookout for the man in a banana suit.

And please have him contact me and come to First Tuesday @ Fat Tuesdays Tempe to reclaim his lost item.

I feel it would be appropriate that he show up as a banana, for proper identification.

Thanks.

a ride for some stuff to the bay...

jinxcat — Sun, 13 Apr 2008 18:21:57 GMT

So over the past 6 months I have accumulated a little much to be strapping onto the back of my motorcycle for my return trip to the bay area. Is anyone driving out there in the next two weeks that would be willing to take along a suitcase of cloathes and books, and a motorcycle helmet? I could pay a modest transport fee... hit me up if you can, I am leaving tucson tomorrow though, so I may end up just goodwilling most of it.

Donating art project to burn!

Amy — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 17:32:37 GMT

Hello burners! I have a beautiful and compassionate 600+ petaled paper lotus flower screaming to be donated for the next burn session. I don't have the resources to go to a burning man event, so maybe one of you would like to burn it for me. I would be so grateful to aid in the experience with my lotus flower. It has bloomed, but now it calls for it's own death. Thank you!

Will there be a community art project at toast, like we had at the Decomp? I have some incendiaries and flash pot pots I made last year to bring. If any ones wants to use them.
I may bring a burnable art piece. The size depends on the time I will have. I am working 6- 10s right now so time is a factor.
Not the Toast man,thru. After it tried to killed me 2 years ago I decide not to do him again.:)

Yoga Stars!

Airina — Fri, 01 Feb 2008 00:37:39 GMT

Your body is a universe, let me help you to explore it!

I am a yoga instructor who just moved to Phoenix from Seattle. I like to work with people one-on-one and currently have lots of openings for new students. To drum up interest and community, for a limited time I am offering sliding-scale private yoga instruction, Reiki sessions, and small group workshops (I dig the barter system!). I am also creating a schedule of free and low-cost yoga classes in gallery and studio locations throughout downtown and in natural areas surrounding Phoenix. I have some beautiful spaces to work with or I can possibly come to you and help you create space for yoga in your home. Private instruction is a brilliant way to learn a lot quickly and to understand what yoga means to you.

I help you to create energetic openings with yoga postures and infuse these openings with energy healing. I physically support you as you explore the poses and often integrate other interests such as art, music, swimming, running, hiking etc, to create a practice that is perfect for you. This combined with visualization, meditation, breath work, movement and intuitive massage fills your being with an expansive peace and revolutionary change as the energy flows freely throughout your life.
Pictures and more info are available at people.tribe.net/airina

I look forward to working with you,
namaste,
Airin
P.S. my first class is a free community class at Just Breathe Wellness www.justbreathewellness.com Downtown Phoenix on Saturday at 11:45. It would be great to see some friendly burning faces there!

Poi Workshops at the Mystic Jewell with Alien Jon!!!

Tricia — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 16:23:16 GMT

I highly recommend taking this workshop. Jon is an incredible prop artist and AZ is very fortunate to have him here willing to pass on his knowledge of poi!

Friday, March 7 - w/Alien Jon & assistant Tricia: $40 covers both classes
• 6-7:00 Fundamental forms of modern poi $20 - Covers fundamental poi concepts, exercises, and poi scales. Indispensable for the beginner, fill in holes for intermediate spinners, and give advanced spinners a chance to delve deeply into the foundation that makes all advanced moves easy to learn and flow with.
• 7-8:00 Advanced Poi and technical concepts $30 - Covers an advanced model and understanding of the spin zones around the human body so that you can spin anywhere in any orientation including behind the head and back or under the legs. This also includes inside planes and inswings in between the arms all around the body. Further exploration in the body and poi relationships as time sculpture: tracing geometry through time. This yields incredible feelings and unbelievable visual effects for your audience. For the uber-advanced we can cover 'Composite' spinning: pattern construction using independent control of each hand/poi. For example advanced hybrids.

Call the Mystic Jewell, Alien Jon, or Tricia to reserve your spot!

Teacher Bios:

Alien Jon:
Jonathan Everett has been spinning things since childhood, starting with himself, and expanding to socks with tennis balls in them and sticks found in the woods of Maine. Starting with his first pair of devilstix in 1995, he officially entered the world of object manipulation. In 1999, from a foundation built on devilstix and drawing inspiration from T'ai Ji and Aikido, he began spinning glowing objects on strings or in socks at "all night dance parties". After meeting other spinners he learned that objects had been spun in a similar manner for millennia by ancient cultures from around the world. This gave rise to the discovery of fire spinning, and his dedication to the art of contemporary poi began.
From devilstix and poi other object manipulation quickly followed: Sphereplay, staff, meteor, diabolo, and astrojax to name a few. These talents have been melded with a love of music and dance, including liquid, illusional, and funk styles. Jon loves to play and lives for the spark of innovation and creativity, while further honing his skill through diligent practice.
Jon has performed at the Fringe Benefit for the 1st Annual Boulder Fringe Festival, the 1st Annual Boulder Juggling Festival, Ratuva Circus performance and workshops, COSM Fire, the 2007 Burning Man Conclave, and with the ExtraTerrestrial Circus Experiment. He has taught classes around the country in poi, sphereplay, and devilstix at the Double Rainbow Ranch, Boulder Circus Center, 1st Annual Boulder Juggling Festival, Shepherd Valley Waldorf School, SphereCamp East and West, Domba/Mystic Jewell Dance Studio, Wildfire (CT), Florida State University, and at Renaissance Festivals country-wide. He also teaches private lessons.

Zan's:
Zan started performing in South America on tour with his brother Noah, and continues to burn with the same inspired passion as in the beginning. His training has led him far and wide, through a dozen countries and across the disciplines of spinning, dance, juggling, music, yoga, circus, martial arts, and acrobatics. Zan's specialty is dazzling fire performances, though he thrives on the challenge of a unique performance for each event, be it day or night. Whatever the occasion, Zan delivers pure entertainment with unforgettable class, style, and grace.
Known for his expertise in the theory and technique of poi and staff spinning, Zan has given workshops around the U.S. and abroad.

Five workshop spaces and living areas inside the Vulcan will host our festivities. Free lodging (sorry, just couches) will be available Friday through Sunday for participants from outside the bay area. Additionally, hotels are available locally starting at about $45 a night.

Beginning Partner Poi - Silence and Ayala, of FLUX
An introductory level class covering technical moves and choreography in relation to poi duets. Technical emphasis will be on two-person interactive moves, rather than simultaneous moves. How to choreograph a routine from scratch will also be discussed. Bring a partner or find one in class.

Intermediate/Advanced Poi II - Ian Smith
This class will concentrate on the simpler things in poi: 2 beat weaves, stalls, pendulums, spinning in together time, same direction. You will learn that because of their simplicity they have the most variation possibilities and some of the variations can be quite difficult. We will also touch on the relationship between the poi and your body.

Staff

Beginning/Intermediate staff – Krissy Humphreys

Intermediate/Advanced Double Staff - Greg Maldonado
Learn how to create a variety of patterns and effects with two staffs by combining many different types of motion into your tricks. Beginning with an understanding of how we can move one staff, we quickly progress to two staff exercises designed to open the doors to what is called "hybrid" technique.

Beginning Double Staves – Jordan Campbell
Learn double staff from the ground up in this class designed for the beginner. After a thorough examination of the myriad ways to manipulate a staff we begin combining techniques to seamlessly integrate a second staff.

Hoop

Beginner Hoop – Khan Wong
This class introduces students to the fundamentals of hooping, from the first moves every hooper should learn to the principles of establishing a solid hoop practice. We'll start with the basics: hooping on the waist, walking and turning with the hoop and lifting the hoop off the body and getting it back on. From there, passes around the body, vertical hooping and basic hand-hooping technique will be introduced. The class will move on to shoulder hooping and duck-outs depending on participant ability and interest.

Hoop Technique & Flow – Khan Wong
The focus of this workshop is to expand each hooper's range of motion and control. As such, it will not teach moves (though some will be covered) but will instead cover theory and concepts of movement applied to hoop technique. Special attention will be given to hand and body rolling techniques, isolations, antispin applications and direction changes. Participants should be able to transition easily between at least three different moves (it doesn't matter which ones) to get the most out of the class.

Juggling

Beginning Juggling - Jordan Campbell or Bree Crabtree
In this class you will learn the 3 ball cascade – the fundamental building block of juggling patterns – as well as several variations.

The ball moves. The ball doesn't move. Come join us in this introductory class that will teach how you to move the ball through space gracefully and then keep it still in visually engaging ways. Close attention will be paid to beginning balancing, isolations and body rolls. No experience required.

Beginning Contact Juggling - Greg Maldonado
Learn how to use the fewest number of the simplest type of prop: one ball. Combining balancing, rolling and spinning to fluidly move a ball across your body, contact juggling will broaden your idea of what juggling can be while deepening your understanding of your relationship with objects.

Rope Manipulation… what’s that supposed to mean? It’s everything can do with a jump rope other than jump over it! Poi experience is helpful in this class but not required.

Club Swinging - Poki
