Pictures from Alchemy 2008

I’m away until next week at Alchemy, the Georgia burn, an event in my current home state that’s inspired by Burning Man. I hope to have some pictures up soon of this year’s event, but in the meantime, here are some awesome shots from Alchemy 2008 to give you an idea of the kind of fun I’m immersed in right now.

24 foot Alchemy effigy:

The Temple of Expression:

A glow hooper at night:

The Glass House – four walls of glass that you can sit inside, lit up in UV, and paintable!

Fire spinners in the conclave right before burning the effigy:

The effigy as it starts to go up:

Stay tuned for images of Alchemy 2009. I especially hope to bring home pictures of the effigy and the temple, to see how they have changed for this year.
