Hi Raisins!!!
[first off, thanks for re-posting my old Raisin deep intent diatribe Adam! I hope it's still of use]

London is so phenominal, let me tell ya. Just packed with history and colors and music and ACTION, EASILY as bustly and goin-on as NYC, but with less skyscrapers and more endless gorgeous pedestrian playgrounds and a music scene that is easily in the top 3 in the world. AANNNNDDD................a short flight away from the euro-burn in Spain!!! My American friend colin and I scrambled last minute to spain for this little event called NOWHERE, and we didn't look back. What a great decision, and I have eagar Burn-virgin Colin to thank for motivating us. It was less than 200 people, humble yet grandiose, full of heart and many languages, truly a family of freaks. My London friend base has tripled, cuz so many good-hearted london freaks were at Nowhere.

Nowhere folks play big, but there's always that euro undertone of subtlety and simplicity and not a lot of drama (at least on the surface). The climate was the same as B-man, the terrain similar but not as flat, most of the time i felt I was on the playa proper. These pics show many highlights, such as the poetic signs on the way in, the beautiful london-based people of my home camp "the Burrow", picture of all of us on the trampoline, an awesome japanese tea ceremony (pic of the glowing geisha and me takin a sip of the tea), great art (check out the massive wind sock and the Moop Moster rolling toward center camp and the nighttime misty perf. art piece the Spaniards rocked). There's even a close-up of a bug for scottie!

Also check out me on the trampoline in a red jumpsuit and massive boxing gloves. We had a dance-off between camps on Sunday night, where somehow I got elected secret weapon mascot in a glittery velvet red jump suit and boxing gloves the size of pillows, like a cartoon. Before our (the Burrowers) bout with the Ninja Camp I was hidden under a blanket on a trampoline until the crucial moment, whereby the trampoline was carried out to the middle of the dance floor and I sprang up punching........those suckas got served.

Anyway, here's the link for my flickr slideshow. Enjoy!
