The offical Burning Life Center Camp stage is now schedulingGreetings ,I am contacting you on behalf of SL's Burning Life event which will take place Sept. 24th to Oct 1st, for all of the various genres of the SL arts community to share thier talents and vision. This is regarding booking for the offical Center Camp stage that sits on 4 sims. This is a very large multi sim event with alot of attention. We are seeking musicians, DJ's, and comedians to perform over the 8 day course of the event. This is modeled after the RL Burning Man event and is a Resident Run Non-Profit Group. Burning Life is about collaborative art and expression - NOT Commerce. This means if you would like to be a part of this very large and high profile event you do so as a volunteer. This means you will not be paid to play or be allowed a tip jar, nor advertise. If you are interested in being a part of this years Burning Life on the official Center Camp stage(4 sims) please contact me Isis Desmoulins via notecard or IM if I am around to get in the line up to be shedualed or with any questions. Thank you and hope to hear from you soon, Pa Decosta Lunna Wilder or check the official Burninglife.org wiki for new organizer in charge This text is copied from http://www.burningman.com/whatisb.../about_burningman/principles.html 10 Principles Radical Inclusion Anyone may be a part of Burning Man. We welcome and respect the stranger. No prerequisites exist for participation in our community. Gifting Burning Man is devoted to acts of gift giving. The value of a gift is unconditional. Gifting does not contemplate a return or an exchange for something of equal value. Decommodification In order to preserve the spirit of gifting, our community seeks to create social environments that are unmediated by commercial sponsorships, transactions, or advertising. We stand ready to protect our culture from such exploitation. We resist the substitution of consumption for participatory experience. Radical Self-reliance Burning Man encourages the individual to discover, exercise and rely on his or her inner resources. Radical Self-expression Radical self-expression arises from the unique gifts of the individual. No one other than the individual or a collaborating group can determine its content. It is offered as a gift to others. In this spirit, the giver should respect the rights and liberties of the recipient. Communal Effort Our community values creative cooperation and collaboration. We strive to produce, promote and protect social networks, public spaces, works of art, and methods of communication that support such interaction. Civic Responsibility We value civil society. Community members who organize events should assume responsibility for public welfare and endeavor to communicate civic responsibilities to participants. They must also assume responsibility for conducting events in accordance with local, state and federal laws. Leaving No Trace Our community respects the environment. We are committed to leaving no physical trace of our activities wherever we gather. We clean up after ourselves and endeavor, whenever possible, to leave such places in a better state than when we found them. Participation Our community is committed to a radically participatory ethic. We believe that transformative change, whether in the individual or in society, can occur only through the medium of deeply personal participation. We achieve being through doing. Everyone is invited to work. Everyone is invited to play. We make the world real through actions that open the heart. Immediacy Immediate experience is, in many ways, the most important touchstone of value in our culture. We seek to overcome barriers that stand between us and a recognition of our inner selves, the reality of those around us, participation in society, and contact with a natural world exceeding human powers. No idea can substitute for this experience. Greetings Performing Artist, Thank you for showing interest in performing at Burning Life 2007.
