The Legacy and Artistry of Building the Man
from Burning Man LIVE · host Darryl Van Rhey, Andie Grace, Dan Miller, Larry Harvey, Jerry James, Kimba Standridge, Michael Vav, Chris Campbell, Stuart Mangrum, Goatt
The Burning Man figure started it all and has stood at the center of Black Rock City for decades. Many myths and legends of its origins have been passed down through the years. It can be difficult to separate fact from fiction. We took a deep dive with the earliest builders of the Burning Man to chart the evolution and decode the mythology. We also spoke with members of the current team that bring the figure to life year after year. We explore the craftsmanship of the build, the rituals of the crew's process, and the secret details that make the Burning Man sculpture so unique. https://burningman.org/timeline/LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG
