Burning Man has revealed the design for the new Man. The design was created by Larry Harvey and Rod Garrett, and illustrated by Jack Haye and Rod Garrett, and will be the centerpiece of the Burning Man Arts Festival in the Black Rock Desert. The American Dream is the theme to this year's festival.
This year's Burning Man will be the tallest ever, and will stand on top of a four-story obelisk. The monument will be draped with flags of countries from all over the world. Inside the obelisk, a double-helix like strand will create a spiral staircase that will resemble DNA. The "Man" will be burned on Burn Night on Saturday, August 30th.
The Burning Man Festival takes place on August 25th to September 1st 2008. Tickets for Burning Man will go on sale on January 16th, please remember there will be NO tickets available at the gate, tickets must be purchased before the event.

Who cares? That festival was done and over 5 years ago. Keep paying your hard-earned money to support Harvey and his out-of-work cronies if you dare, I have better things to do.
Cheers, I'm out.
That's being too generous. Burning Man was done and over ten years ago. Every "burner" I know who still goes just bitches and complains about the event (all year long), but they all still keep going, though.
How appropriate. The Man is now even farther out of reach from the maddening crowd. I wonder how many security goons will be guarding access to the staircase?
Sorry you guys feel that way. But I'll be rolling around in playa dust this summer, and won't be regretting it.
wait..there are flags underneath it...does that mean a giant flag burning as well?
how fun
