About This Item

BeacoinUp

This coin commemorates the Black Rock Beacon’s 5 year anniversary. The Black Rock Beacon is a non-profit publishing group dedicated to providing a daily newspaper to the Burning Man community. Please visit www.blackrockbeacon.org for more information.

What is Burning Man?

Trying to explain Burning Man to someone who has never been to the event is a bit like trying to explain what a particular color looks like to someone who is blind. Everyone gets something different out of it. For some, Burning Man is an arts festival, music festival, a spiritual reconnection, or a week of extreme camping in the desert. To others, it is a social experiment in community and sharing. For more information, visit www.burningman.com.

Burning Man has Ten Guiding Principles. There were five Black Rock Beacon Geocoins minted for each Principle.

This coin represents Immediacy
Immediate experience is, in many ways, the most important touchstone of value in our culture. We seek to overcome barriers that stand between us and a recognition of our inner selves, the reality of those around us, participation in society, and contact with a natural world exceeding human powers. No idea can substitute for this experience.

Saw it on the table and had to have it, like right now. Didn't realize it had been to St. Louis. We'll drop in a cache in Illinois somewhere. Thanks for sharing.

I'm sorry, I picked this up while clearing up at the ice cream social, and forgot to log it. Logging it now & will take it to another great event.

I had a sense of immediacy when I saw this coin. I just had to log it. I really want to get to Burning Man too someday! Thanks for the coin.
