Burning Man Video

The San Franciso Chronicle has posted a video from Burning Man 2005. It helps convey some of the insanity that befell us hapless victims of the event this year. 'The Burn', as it is called by the veterans is a chance to live by an alternate ethos; to live under an alternate identity, for a brief period of time; staggering across the vast expanse of a windswept prehistoric lakebed, reminiscing with strangers, and dreaming of a more meaningful existence.

I like the first half of the video. They spent too much time focused on the zenith of the event, the burning of the man, but the first half of the video is priceless.
