Q6: Employment?

What do you do to pay the bills and keep the landlord off your back? What is your monthly income? (It is important that you answer this question truthfully. All of your personal information in this application is strictly confidential.)

Currently I'm employed by Chaffe McCall, LLP as a File Clerk which pays $1300 a month (actively seeking other employment in the field of social research).

Q5: Participate in Future?

How do you plan to participate in the future?

While I know one should never have expectations - I'm hoping that Burning Man will consecrate in myself this ideology I want to live by, and thus either gravitate toward other like-minded people OR having a positive influence on others and ultimately to find/initiate an art house in my own back yard.

Q4: Plans for camping/living?

Please describe your plans for camping/living in BRC?

Currently - looking on Craigslist for a ride.
Any suggestions?

After I get there, its hard to say.

Q3: Asset to the community?

Why do you feel that you are an asset to the community?

Mental

Organization among chaos (if needed)
Logic and reason among chaos (if needed)
I'm not an extremist
Provide a balance for those I interact with or that might need it - that is between those that embodies ultra-liberal paradigms as well as ultra-conservative paradigms.

However, I'm also hoping to purge my moderation.
Moderation is important, even moderation.

Balance is essential.

Q2: Contribution to BRC?

How are you planning to contribute to Black Rock City this year?

When the beat hits just right, I'll hit it into "rabbit-speed dance mode - using every limb and fiber of my body to transmit
Physical - modern dance - definition.

My passion for modern dance developed when I was a member of the Joni Rodman Dance Company through out high school. This unique dance program allowed students to independently choose their own music, choose their group to perform with, collaborate to choreograph movement, choose lighting and costume. Performance through this medium provided an outlet for my emotions (TNT)

While many adults have phased out an avenue of artistic expression, it is quite possibly one of the most effective means of channeling emotional energy. - Art therapy.

Incorporation of poi into modern dance.

Q1: Why BM now?

If this is your first year attending Burning Man, why do you feel the need to go to Burning Man now?

"Feb. 26, 2010. Carpe Diem. I believe in the ability for a collective consciousness to have influence on the individual. The power of social connections and environment are unfathomable as, in many instances, one's actions and attitudes are directly influenced by their environment. Some *lucky* individuals exist in an environment that is supportive, conscious of our surroundings, and overall positive, an environment I will refer to as "the art house".

The art house offers many varieties of life. By living in this supportive environment, each individual offers many life enhancing thoughts and actions that better the collective. These fields pertain to the enjoyment and appreciation of activities such as healthy diet, exercise, music, dance, art, adventure, nature, literature, spirituality, community, and positive mentality. As a result of each individual's input, the art house as a collective stimulates the being and allows it to enjoy the infinity this world has to offer. The possibilities are endless and with the right collective consciousness, your support group can allow the individual to maximize the profits of being - Carpe Diem.

However, let's consider an individual beginning from scratch, from new. While one is knowledgeable of the existence of this type of environment, one has yet to find a group of individuals that actively practice the individual's ideal lifestyle. At this moment, this individual lacks a spiritual support group, an artistic or creative environment, and the structure of an educational system to stimulate the mind. Is the individual able to create this ideal lifestyle without support?

Here I aim to keep a journal - The Final Mission to the Heart of the Sun - where I will document my efforts as an individual to actively create an environment that mimics the mentality of the Art House."

Beginning with my first journal entry, I have taken advantage of my days - becoming more active and creative through many different mediums. The final purpose being that I want to become someone that I am proud of in terms of creativity, mind-space, and health - to get as much out of the day as possible. To attend Burning Man now...I'm ready for it. I want to contribute my art and love of modern dance, costume, and even my morality, sentiments, and sense of humor - while wanting to exceed my own limits and mental capacity for the other - spiritually or culturally.
