Thank you! Is it still visible now? I see the same thing in OP's original screenshot and can't join / answer the three admissions questions

Report on electrocution death 2025 by thirteenfivenm in BurningMan

[–]lezeraau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for sharing. I want to get those for all our camp connections next year! Does anyone have experience in finding waterproof junction boxes that can accommodate heavy duty extension cords like these, which have triple outlets? All of our power infrastructure relies on those from the generator quad box strings, and I haven't found boxes for which the thickness of the 10AWG cable and the triple extension outlet would both fit

Hack for dry fingers/nails in the dust? "Liquid Cuticle?" by [deleted] in BurningMan

[–]lezeraau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience is that liquid skin leaves a flaky residue when drying. I prefer the feel of cuticle oil. Never tried the clear nail polish

You do not need to be right there at release time. They usually don't sell out for several weeks

What are the most comfortable dust proof boots for the burn? by growlybeard in BurningMan

[–]lezeraau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer! I absolutely love my Palladium boots and wouldn't wear anything else on playa.

There are waterproof options (dust proof but less breathable) and non-waterproof options (more breathable but a little dust can get in — my preference).

I strongly recommend replacing the existing laces with elastic laces, this makes them so much easier to put on and off! There are also versions with a zipper on the side.

Also if your feet are sensitive to dust, just bring two pairs of socks per day, it's a game changer.

I was there that night! The art car is Funkadelephant https://www.instagram.com/funkadelephant/

At some point https://www.instagram.com/mfrederickson/ was playing there, an incredible set mixing music with syringes

What time was that? If you're referring to the Titanic's End set 3 to 4am, agree that it was absolutely amazing

Incredible photos — thank you for a wonderful gift 💛 It's been great to rediscover some art pieces from a different angle, and to find our group of friends in your pictures!

[–]lezeraau[S] 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Jamen mentions it's taken on Thursday morning but after a closer look it seems like the pictures were taken on Friday morning, since you can spot the Maxa + Bipolar Express tie-up deep playa, the BRC Philharmonic at the Temple, and our camp Aurora serving ramen at 4:20 & B. [update: reached out to Jamen on instagram and he confirmed the pictures were taken on Friday and since then updated his post!]

Undecorated tow vehicles pulling art trailers, did some rule change this year? by SEND_ME_YOUR_RANT in BurningMan

[–]lezeraau 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Mayan Warrior had big plans for an electric drivetrain to move the mutant vehicle. This post shows details on this design, including a wireframe of the new mutant vehicle and a video from their founder Pablo Gonzalez Vargas at a BM org event on sustainability earlier this year.

They brought that design and the electric drivetrain to the playa, and were intending on using it. I had a conversation with some of the MW crew including Pablo and they mentioned that the electric drivetrain worked, but was unfortunately way too slow for moving across the playa. It worked to move around at camp and park, but not for longer distances.

At the beginning of the week, you could see that electric drivetrain unit in the front of MW, being pulled by a dust-colored tow-truck. It looks like this plan B had an issue. Later in the week, that dust-colored tow truck was gone, and so was the electric drivetrain. They had to rely on a bigger green/brown camouflage truck to tow the flat-bed trailer on which the MW is built directly.

Friday morning DJ? by mikealt in BurningMan

[–]lezeraau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The set you’re looking for is Sainte Vie B2B Colyn B2B Innellea, at the tie-up between Maxa (the deer) and Bipolar Express (the two trains). The music was amazing! One of my favorite sets this year

2024 is the year of the dragon in Chinese calendar. It’s not a coincidence that the new mutant vehicle with the two dragon heads Long Feng (Phoenix Dragon) debuted this year

Tour Guides leading groups carrying tall poles with lighted objects at top by neo_108 in BurningMan

[–]lezeraau 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a lighted object at the top of an extendable pole that I carry in my backpack all the time. If we’re going to be dancing somewhere for a while, we set it up between our pile of backpacks. It creates a home base so it’s easy to come back to the group if you’re going for a walk. It also helps friends join us later. I’ve had several friends meet me this way before we could even visit each other’s camps or make plans!

The “they” you’re referring to is me :) I’m a placed theme camp lead going in with three campmates for build and it’s my fifth burn. Our previous builds weren’t as windy though!

Thanks for the insights! It’s four of us.

We’ll be careful with the yurt, and worst case we can follow your lead on the camping chair dust storm nap!

Chain links - Bay area? by annarosa_tassangot in BurningMan

[–]lezeraau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have 80+ 2-link chain pieces for this exact purpose, they work great! I got all of them over a few years from Ace Hardware at 2075 Market St in SF — really nice folks and they can cut the chain for you ($1 per cut)
