Burn2 2011 is burning!!!

Burn2 is here again. It is one of my favorite events inside Second Life for many reasons, one, is an art show where anybody can participate, amateurs and professionals, second, is all about freedom, creativity and sharing and third, there is an amazing crown of people in there!

I took some pictures you can see in the slideshow above or in a set in Flickr. The Burn2 team recorded this video so you can have an idea of what’s going on in there:

They define Burn2 this way:

BURN2 is an extension of the Burning Man festival and community into the world of Second Life. It is an officially sanctioned Burning Man regional event, and the only virtual world event out of more than 100 real world Regional groups, and the only Regional to burn the Man!

The BURN2 organization spreads Burning Culture and the Burning Man Ten Principles (http://burn2.org/ten-principles) year round in Second Life, culminating in an annual festival of community, art and fire in the fall – a virtual echo of Burning Man itself…so BURN2.

The thing to do is go and explore, enjoy and connect. You can find information in the Burn2 website like timeline, the events, shows…etc.

Also in Soup Radio we recorded a show during the Press day of Burn2 that has a lot of references and places you might enjoy visiting. Find more information in the Soup Radio blogpost or listen the show in stream or download it as an iTunes podcast.

I have a tiny build in Burn2, but will write another post about it.
