Eric “Propaniac” Smith
Eric has a thing for Propane =)
Justin Cunningham
Justin Cunningham started out his acquaintance with me when I got involved with Controlled Burn. He was “Cowboy”, and I affectionately termed him, after safetying for him for a year, our “Ferntucky Fuel Whore”. The very first year we did Compression, Justin surprised the heck out of me. We showed up on the plaza to setup the day of the event, and Justin has this AMAZING piece of art in his truck. He basically says “Hey, I made this, and I thought it would be cool here so I brought it.” Here’s Justin, that first year, with Teresa, his creation:
This year, Justin is cooking up something new, and I can’t wait to see it! I’ve seen the prototype, and it’s AMAZING! Justin is also instrumental in working on Ein Hammer, a Burning Man installation this year, so if we just have Teresa for the event, that will be okay too!
Nefarious Grin
Grin is new to our festival this year, but certainly not new to fire, art, or Burning Man culture! An accomplished welder, great friend, and all-around good guy, not only is Grin displaying his own custom made burn barrel art this year, he is helping Gemini coordinate the artists around the plaza. He has done an amazing job, and we very much look forward to seeing what he can “cook” up for the festival!
Rebecca “Sage” Brune
“Sage” is truly multi-talented. She has spun fire with Controlled Burn and most recently has turned her talent to creating amazing burn barrels. We look forward to seeing what she has in store for us!
