Batman, eat your heart out.

Or don’t.  We probably don’t have too many overlapping applications when it comes to our utility belts, now that I think about it...

Since I belong to a playground-themed camp at Burning Man, I decided to bring a bit more playground-related things with me this year.  

And what better toy to bring to a playground than a good ol fashioned see saw?!

All burn projects are a labor of love, and this was no exception.

I was invited to a small Burner gathering in the woods in NH, and my contribution was building, bringing, and burning the weekend’s effigy, which was a flat-pack 8′ tall mushroom.

I designed it to fit into my car (along with all my other camping gear), and to be assembled efficiently (30 minutes with four people and two drills!).  Also I shot fireworks off of the mushroom tip platform.

Featured models: a lovely lady (Allie), and a cute puppy butt.

It was my absolute pleasure to work at Camp RSM this year, the Russian Math Camp where I spent majority of the summers in my youth.

I taught woodworking for two weeks, and let me tell ya: boy did I miss teaching.  And let’s not forget large project collaboration.  As mentioned in the Swing Set project, I was collaborating with TurboMasala, the superpowered creative duo of Nikita and Anastasia whom I adore so much.

Their Laser Lab class and my Woodworking class collaborated to create this permanent “Burner” installation at Camp, where my class learned about framing, construction, and basic woodworking, and the laser cutting class learned about digital design and implementation.

It was a great project, y’all, just see for yourselves!

The latest LED bracelet experiments.  It’s only going to get weirder.

I can’t frickin wait to bring all these toys and goodies with me to the next Burn.
