Tentacle Porn Shoot
4:30 pm - 6:00 pm
Have your photo taken in a compromising position with Nekkid Jim's wildly tentacled ammonite, before it goes to the effigy.
Really, how many chances does anyone get to make tentacle porn?
Bring your cameras, because this is the last time they will be allowed in Skin City for the event!
(What's an ammonite? Google it! No, it has nothing to do with the Bible.)

Shadow Box Sex
10:00 pm - 12:00 midnight
You've all heard of 'shadow boxing', well this is 'shadow box sex'!! Are you a bit of an exhibitionist? Are you a voyeur? Here is your chance to try both.
A large tent will be provided with a mattress behind a white sheet wall that is back-lit with a large spotlight. Take a friend into the tent and play around on the bed while anyone passing by outside watches your shadows on the wall. Take turns... switch partners... play with the shadows...do a lap dance...undress each other....guess who is in there... be creative. It's as tame or as wild as you want it to be.
Be the first in your camp to try shadow sex!!

Join me for guided (not by a certified instructor) for Kundalini Yoga and Mediation. It will happen when I wake up in the mornings, and possibly other times during the day. I would love to do something right before the "un-burn".

Going Postal!
10:00 am - 12:00 noon
That's right! DIY sandwich action at the lounge at Camp Nomadic!
I have found a great joy in personal mail that I would like to share with you.
There will be cards, postcards and stationary to chose from, plus pens and stamps for your postal pleasure. All mail will be dropped of at the post office on the 11th.
You will need the mailing addresses for your friends, family, landlord, etc...
If you would like to donate a postcard or card to the mail box for someone else to use, that would be very nice.
The following was copied from an article in a blog that can be found here.
In the days of cell phones, email, and text messages, letter writing can seem hopelessly outdated. But it’s an art worth bringing back, and not because of some misplaced sense of nostalgia either. The writing and reception of letters will always offer an experience that modern technology cannot touch. Twitter is effective for broadcasting what you’re eating for lunch, and email is fantastic for quick exchanges on the most pertinent pieces of information. But when it comes to sharing one’s true thoughts, sincere sympathies, ardent love, and deepest gratitude, words traveling along an invisible superhighway will never suffice. Why?
Because sending a letter is the next best thing to showing up personally at someone’s door. Ink from your pen touches the stationary, your fingers touch the paper, your saliva seals the envelope. Something tangible from your world travels through machines and hands, and deposits itself in another’s mailbox. Your letter is then carried inside as an invited guest. The paper that was sitting on your desk, now sits on another’s. The recipient handles the paper that you handled. Letters create a connection that modern, impersonal forms of communication will never approach.

You Can Dance To This Shit
1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
After One Glorious Hour of metal, Geo will ease y'all back to your regularly scheduled oontz with some metal that you can actually dance to! OK, some of it is more industrial-ish. Think Fear Factory, Meshuggah, Ephel Duath, and whatever other weird dance-y metal remixes Geo can find. And lots and lots of Circus of Dead Squirrels, because they rule and need to be heard in Texas. Geo will take requests if she can get her hands on the mp3.

Emergency Relationship Counseling
2:00 pm - However Long it Takes
On Saturday and Sunday Sean Sparks will be sitting at a table near Rainbow Ninja Camp, making himself available to anyone who wishes to talk about their relationship. He is in training for his LPC in counseling, and would benefit from practicing his listening skills with individuals in our community who wouldn't mind sharing and workshopping their thoughts and feelings regarding their relationship.
Burns can be hard for relationships, and it seems that everyone could benefit from having the opportunity to talk and possibly resolve some conflict points, so as to share the event and each other in the most congruent and loving way possible.

All asses accepted, the bigger and rounder the better. We'll provide the paints, brushes, and a warm encouraging non-judgmental environment.

4th Annual Miss.Myschievia Pageant
9:00 - 10:00 pm
Much like the The Miss Black Rock City Pageant (started by StacyCats since 2006), The Miss.Myschievia Pageant challenges participants, spectators, and the world at large to take a closer look at the individual communities that make up our fair city and the unique beauties that lie therein. The pageant will be judged based on two categories: 1) Talent & 2) Burn Night Attire. All you need to paricipate is a talent! Almost anything can be considered a talent. Come by camp No Promises anytime to inform us that you'd like to participate.
Represent your camp, your village, your region, your tent, or just yourself! Show us your inner beauty!
NOTE: No beauty pageant is fair, bribing the "judges" and your host is encouraged. Participate for fun, rather than play to win!

EL Wire & Steampunk 101

What the hell is Steampunk and what is EL Wire?
We'll be educating the dirty, ignorant masses about Steampunk and how to light up your dark-tard asses at night.
Does EL Wire and Steampunk have anything to do with each other?
Not really. It will be a two in one discussion over topics that keep cropping up.
Stop by and learn from BRC veterans about the importance, the beauty and the art of EL Wire, the engineering, multi-culturalism, and imagination of Steampunk and its connection to the circus.
