[Leonardo/ISAST Network] Burning Man Fire Arts panel at swissnex San Francisco, November 2nd

[Leonardo/ISAST]

*FIRE ARTS & BURNING DESIRES*
**/the canvas and paintbrush of Burning Man fire art spectaculars/
  
In a collaboration between Burning Man, /Leonardo/ journal and swissnex 
San Francisco, an evening symposium titled /Fire Arts & Burning Desires/ 
will present several Burning Man fire artists, who will discuss the use 
of their work with fire as a creative medium.
 
 From pyrrhic highlight to transcendent interaction, when is fire an 
appropriate part of a sculptural statement? How do we use fire in a safe 
way for both the artist and the audience? Learn about the behind the 
scenes gyrations of previous Burning Man fire art spectacles.
 
/Fire Arts & Burning Desires/ is hosted by swissnex San Francisco and 
presented by Burning Man and /Leonardo/ journal, who recently 
collaborated in publishing an exclusive collection of essays and 
photographs on the /Fire Arts of Burning Man/ (/Leonardo/ Volume 40 
Issue # 4, 2007).
 
Speakers presenting at the symposium will include Crimson Rose (The Fire 
Goddess), The Flaming Lotus Girls, (TBA), Bill Codding (The Burninator), 
Wally Glen (The Zen Fire Garden) and DaveX, who will discuss the safety 
parameters of working with fire in an artistic way.
