Burning Man: Art on Fire
An inspirational insight into the spectacular art at the center of this annual celebration, “Burning Man: Art on Fire” follows the unpredictable journey of the artists who defy reason to bring their massive installations and sculptures to the punishing Nevada desert. Filmed just after Burning Man’s legendary founder suddenly died, the community of artists is challenged by impossible timing and blinding dust storms. This richly cinematic, multi-
character narrative unfolds over months as they imagine, build and ultimately burn the extraordinary main structures in this temporary city of dreams…a poignant and uplifting feel-good movie!
This film is being shown through the generosity of SKY ARTS (UK), SKY ARTE (Italy), Rialto Channel (NZ) and ROCO Films.
Time: 10:00am – 11:30am PT

TV Free Burning Man
From 2006 through 2008, Current TV Executive Producer and long-time Burner, Justin Gunn took a group of television news and documentary producers to Black Rock City to tell the many and varied stories of the Burning Man experience. The result was TV FREE BURNING MAN, built in the style of a pirate TV station complete with cameras, editing systems and a satellite uplink that “took over” the airwaves of Current TV throughout the entirety of Burn Week. Deploying a day-of-air news approach to documentary coverage, the team consisted of shooter-producer-editors, or “predators,” who broke new ground in storytelling by handing out video cameras to Burning Man participants to help them tell their own stories. Each day, they shot, edited and fed between 15-20 minutes of finished content. They also carried the Burn live with multiple cameras.
Time: 7:00pm – 8:00pm PT
