To my readers around the world. I have never been to burning man because it is a little too wild for me. It appears to have evolved over the years. I have talked to friends that have been to one or more. It appears to be about people expressing themselves and in this sense it is a gathering of artists spectators and participants but it appears some people are all 3 during the event. Since it is an artistic experiential event almost anything goes including nudity there. So, people easily offended by nudity or being strange in almost any artistic or musical way should not go unless they can deal with it. For me, I saw enough strangeness during the 1960s and 1970s Thank you very much. However, it still interests me what people might come up with. I really like the man (or woman) standing on top of a UFO like artistic sculpture for example.

If you didn't have the time, money, or inclination to spend a
week in the Nevada desert this year, these videos will give you a taste
of what you missed
If, like me, you've never been to Burning Man — or, like Facebook billionaire Mark Zuckerberg, you just helicopter in for one day of the weeklong festival — these drone's-eye views of the big party in the desert are certainly a better introduction than the photos on your friend's smartphone or Instagram page. If you are a Burning Man regular, here's a different way to relive the magic.
The video above was taken by Eddie Codel from a DJI Phantom quadcopter UAV. The one below was captured by Tugrik d'Itichi from a TBS Discovery Pro quadrotor. Both UAVs held GoPro Hero3 cameras.
For more of an on-the-ground look at Burning Man, here is a time-lapse video of five of the installations, including the eponymous Man burned on the final Saturday, Aug. 31:
See a photo of the Man on fire here, or read a first-person account, from Wells Tower in GQ, of experiencing Burning Man with a 69-year-old father. Finally, here's a look inside just one structure, the Temple of Whollyness, which was burned to the ground late Sept. 1:
