That Thing In The Desert has been happening in Nevada for over 30 years. A man is built and burned. Each year, the man is a little bigger and the fire burns a little brighter. And each year, everyone goes home and shares their photos. #mycameraisfilledwithdust

Burning Man websites have been around since the earliest days of the internet (along with the related webpage sub-genre "why I'm no longer going to Burning Man"). Captions were gathered from personal blogs and websites chronicling visits to Burning Man in the early 2000s. This book is a tribute to those old image files as they slowly fade from view.

First published in 2015; this pocket-sized second edition was designed and printed in 2021. Risograph printed at Chute Studio in Berkeley, CA on a RZ310 with indigo, bubblegum and melon inks. Numbered edition of 80.
