I launched this effort in February 2010 after listening to my friends' Burning Man stories for years and deciding that I finally had to go, and bring a contradance with me. I have been contradancing since I was treasurer of the Cornell Outing Club in the mid 1970's . (It was one of the ways we raised money.) 30+ years later, I still get a quasi-spiritual thrill out of the filial, romantic and community bonding that occurs in our unusually imaginative, intelligent, kind and (if I dare say so :) modest subculture.
There is a lot of overlap between the Burning Man 'principles' and the contradance ethic. We will certainly 'convert' many latent dancers amongst the burners (possibly to our demographic advantage), and we will learn from each other. If we succeed, the amazing youtube videos that come out of Burning Man every year will include contradancing from now on.
About me If as someone who will be spending some of your money, you would like to know more about my character (particularly in the interim before there are non-profit corporation treasurer's reports etc) I would ask you to judge me by a few of my projects and some history (and FWIW my eBay feedback).
