Academics from everywhere experiment, collaborate, and even
interpret our stories of "This one time at Burning Man."
In this episode, Stuart talks with people from Burning Nerds, an
annual gathering of academics in Black Rock City. They keep it
light, though; not too many unnecessarily fancy words.
Dr Jukka-Pekka Heikkilä describes the technique used by the
Burning Man Project that gives more power to the people.
Bryan Yazell and Patricia Wolf of the University of Southern
Denmark use Flash Fiction in BRC to develop a new subgenre of
sci-fi called climate fiction (‘cli-fi’), stories that are less
dystopian, even less utopian, more protopian (fancy word)
— not good or bad, but progress.
Professor Matt Zook of the University of Kentucky extols Black
Rock City's unique aspects, from temporality to being a place
apart. He and Stuart explore the interplay between digital and
physical spaces, and what about community actually makes it good.
Then Jukka-Pekka Heikkilä returns with how the Burning Stories
project, now in its 6th year of tracking tales, is a cultural
repository and is training a gifted AI on how Burners be Burning.
