- "Trying to explain what Burning Man is to someone who has never been to the event is a bit like trying to explain what a particular color looks like to someone who is blind."
- "The Burning Man project has grown from a small group of people gathering spontaneously to a community of over 25,000 people."
- "The impact of the Burning Man experience has been so profound that a culture has formed around it."

What is Goa Trance and Goa Trash?
Goa Trance is a style of psychedelic trance music, originated
along 100 miles of beachfront in India, but now played all over the world.
"Goa trash" refers to decorating the site of a Goa Trash party with old,
"trashed" decorations from previous parties.
What is Burning Man?
Burning Man is a cosmic happening, taking place every year in the Black Rock Desert in Nevada. Geoff Dyer in his book Yoga For People Who Can't be Bothered to Do It attempts to explain the Mystery of Burning Man at the tearful climax of his book: "A friend once described Burning Man as a place where everyone can become whatever they want to be. It was the sexiest, the most glamorous, the funniest, the kindest, the wildest, the politest, the freest place on earth: a place where all your dreams can come true."Daniel Pinchbeck in his book Breaking Open the Head says: "Like the effect of certain chemicals, Burning Man changes one's sense of time, revealing the mythic underpinnings, the whispers of eternity, underneath the most ordinary moment... 'I found out there is a way your consciousness can go beyond what we call Now, and I rode the shockwave of inverse time.'"
