One of the most impressive things about Burning Man is the Gift Economy. Nobody sells anything at the Burn, everything is gifted - the only exceptions are the cafe at centre camp and the ice stations. So people's camps will gift food, drinks, entertainment, courses, anything they want. Our camp was called the Academy of Rogue Therapists - for some reason people kept hearing "rope therapists" and were surprised to find out our gift was something as tame as setting up art stations for people. Berm and Ali were the masterminds of this lovely themed camp and Berm built some trailers to carry our supplies behind our bikes. This was my contribution to our Gallery when we set up a station at the GSpot Bar (not sure why they were called that, I just got a beer).
