I also wonder what can be next.
Lets pretend that burningman is irrelevant. Lets skip it.

What are the elements of burning man values... which are really great? And how can those be directly brought into longer lasting spaces? How can we "bring it home?" And what was it again?

What would you like to see happen? Ideally?

Samuelroy's ideas of:
"Could we cure world aids, world hunger and ascend up into the universe and build crazy space-ships that will absorb our consciousness and fly over to another planet and find out what the other planet is like so that we know and we can be happy with ourselves for exploring the universe? "
Hmmm... maybe a little advanced for this week. But there is a huge amount of energy in people's resources, knowledge and passion. What can we do?

"Could you buy collectively owned land?" Personal opinion is that this seems to result in rapid failure. Collective ownership leads to struggle and oppression almost always.
Maybe sharing collective vision and culture can be done better and would allow us to share individually owned resources better. Sharing seems difficult sometimes without a framework to protect people.


"Could we build non-profit, political and artistic complexes in cities around the world? "
Sure, we can do that. There are many now. What are you wanting to accomplish?

"do you think it might be a good idea to help spread the idea of a networked alternative to 'Burningman' as a festival?" Sure, why not? There and many more of these all the time. What would yours be like?

But what can we do beyond this? What do you really want?
What world or event do you wish to create to serve yourself and others?

What are you going to do to create that?

Samuelroy: It sounds like you want something.... I wonder what it is.
