On Wednesday, August 26, a buddy of mine by the name of Brooks Hassig arrived in the "playa," the stretch of Nevada desert that's been host to the Burning Man festival for over 20 years.
His goals: to build a camp, officiate a few weddings, and summon lightning bolts.
Luckily, Brooks brought a camera with him.
This is what he saw.
It was Brooks's second time at Burning Man. "I like to get caught in the windstorms and have anything go wrong and fix it all," he tells Tech Insider.
A 27-year-old graphic designer who lives in the Bay Area, he came to the Playa as a techno-futurist version of the Norse god Thor.
Fittingly enough, he found a lightning bolt. "I maintain that I summoned that art with my Thor hammer," he says.
