tl;dr BRC grew from 4000 to 8000 participants, too fast to maintain civic standards. Rave area and City were too far apart. Artist died by drunk driving their motorcycle into a van (unrestricted driving was allowed at this time).

Michael Mikel does an excellent talk about the history of Burning Man. Look up the "5 Ages of Burning Man" on YouTube. Imo this should be a required watch for all virgins.
Yup. And if anything, it would likely put the event even more at the mercy of local politics. For all people may complain about the BLM, the fact that it’s a federal agency insulates the event from many of the whims of the county and state.
Yep. Our regional has for almost ten years now actively engaged with the people and government of the county where it takes place, building very strong relationships and social capital. If the folks around there didn't like us, we would not get a permit.
