Hometown: BostonA Walk Through Time
A Walk Through Time: 5 billion years of Earth’s history shown right here at Burning Man, as a visceral physical journey. Experience the magnitude of the timeline of life on Earth, and how quickly humans have made an impact to Earth’s creatures and systems. A Walk Through Time was initially exhibited in 1997 in the Bay Area and traversed one linear mile. It was a project 20 years in the making. Made anew for Burning Man 2015, the massive endeavor of exhibiting this new 1/4 mile A Walk Through Time is being undertaken to show Burners the reality of how long humans have been on this planet, and how quickly we have changed it in the last 100 years — a mere nanosecond in the timeline of Earth’s history. The intent behind brining this project to Burning Man is to make it one step in the process of ceasing climate change.
