BURNINGMAN “People need a purpose, even San Franciscans leery of paths cut by nationalist, professional, or theological concerns. So we pursue projects – political, social, or artistic – sometimes just to see them done, so our time and passions have an outlet of our choosing, so we can be part of something bigger than ourselves.”
-- From “Angels of the Apocalypse,” a nine-month embedding project
