Energy
Disorient camp at Burning Man is aiming to use 95% renewable energy by 2027. We have been working on solar solutions for Geodesic Temple with our friends at Black Rock Labs since 2017.
Plastic recycling
To reduce our plastic waste we would like to use a plastic brick compressor similar to this one
https://www.instructables.com/Plastic-Brick-Compressor/ to create bricks inspired by the https://www.byfusion.com model which seems appropriate for the playa:
- Recycles the unrecyclable without sorting or prewashing
- Reduces stress on waste management and recycling infrastructure
- Does not require any chemicals, additives, adhesives, or fillers
- Protects our planet, oceans, waterways, and wildlife
We plan to bring a plastic brick compressor to the playa in 2022 but if you know of a camp that uses them please let us know. We would love to learn from/with them.
Our goal is not only to become self-reliant when it comes to plastic recycling but also to start using the resulting plastic bricks (and possibly other objects) as a common component of our art installations.
Disorient Unplugged
A new type of Disorient event that requires no electricity. Bali and India are possible testing grounds.
