<p>Ready for a bit of collaborative cyber design? </p>
<p>NYABM Next Year At Burning Man</p>
<p>There is a movement afoot in Sinners Alley to get a group of CC parents to go to Burning Man next summer. SBMom went this year and enjoyed it.</p>
<p>Next year, the theme is ‘The Green Man’, but year after year, the theme of Burning Man is Community Generousity. We’re floating the idea of building a Misting Temple to cool off the BM folks–but we need some engineering help.</p>
<p>Problem: how can we build a ‘green’ misting device? I doubt the solar power would be enough to power a mister so I thought about a ‘green’ generator attached to an off the shelf misting device. </p>
<p>Is there such a thing as a ‘green’ generators that runs on pond scum (for example)??</p>
<p>Better yet: there is a problem every year at BM with getting rid of the “grey water” (especially unconsumed coffee), since it is a <em>requirement</em> to trek out EVERYTHING, even the liquid effluent (ummm… yeah). ANYway… the “grey water” is always a disposal problem –</p>
<p>what would be <em>great</em> is if we could come up with a way to re-use the grey water, properly filtered or whatever, for mist creation. We could have cadres of worker-bees from Sinner’s Alley (I call the Bunny Suit!) traveling around collecting grey water, which we could re-use for our misting temple. I would love to toss around some ideas for this.</p>
<p>(Great idea for a thread, cheers! BTW, cheers is going to do the architectural design for our temple. And if y’all don’t think we’re serious… just try us. )</p>
