Lines of couples flow through each other creating a bonding, playful, noncompetitive, beautifully geometric, community dance for all ages and skill levels. There is no required footwork and contra is possible for many with disabilities. If you are smiling, you are doing it right. Everyone who shows up will have fun.

Coyote Garden
Coyote Garden is BRC’s all-ages, all-hours neighborhood coyote park built around a kinetic art installation that brings together dozens of UV-reactive coyote art pieces to celebrate the native song dog of the Americas (and BRC itself). It’s tended by an eclectic group of coyote-adjacent artists and designers to increase coyote consciousness by showing them in different lights.
Coyote Garden exists outside of known time and space. It appears out of the ether on very special occasions when the colorful progenitor coyotes are summoned to this realm by the secret rituals and dark science of the mysterious Coyote Gardeners. The Interdimensional coyotes are especially active from dusk till dawn, when the garden fully transforms and reveals its truest form. Sometimes pancakes and coffee too.

Get lost, but also get found; go deep and also embody pure joy; show up and let it all out with us.

Nothing in life is permanent. Once it happened, it passed. The only constant is the ever-evolving present. But what happens when we add synthetic intelligent life into the equation? What is its perception of ‘life’? Can it go back or forward in time? Is it fully awaken or deeply asleep..? Our thematic camp CYBER DREAMS explores the idea of AI dreaming of its human experience. It came from the outer space and crashed in Black Rock City and now a group of sci-fi researchers set up a camp around it to investigate the unknown object. The study shows that the new ‘entity’ is actually in the state of a deep sleep, dreaming. It is in its final moments before it fades, rendering out a new world for the new AI. It also renders us humans. It dreams of itself. So we wonder… are WE truly awake?
