Sextant Camp.
3V dome with a one-of-a-kind tapered crow's nest that needs some complex bends to support the combined weight of the people and the tensile forces from the zipline going down. 
T.Smith knows how to make a geodesic dome.






When I made to the top, I felt rejuvenated. The way back down on a wobbly flexible ladder is not for the faint of heart. One time was enough.

The Omega.

Lovely burners.







26/ Camps 8




Sail is certainly one of the most difficult material to recycle at BRC because it's primary purpose is to get some traction generated by wind. Most of the time "builders" don't anticipate the constant flapping
and the necessity to tie extremely well almost every inch of the sail.

Here job well done at the back of Decadent Oasis Camp, aerodynamic and pleasant to live in.  





PVC pipes,  fabric and bell tent.

29/ Camps 11





Fractal Planet well organized camp.
Stretch fabric, Teepee, Wood shade structure.





This wood shade structure, the living room of the camp was created by Michel Duvernet who describes it: "the 4 roof panels each have 4 wheels and roll along the top of tracks on the wood structure, allowing the whole to open and close. 
When at music festivals the roofs serve as video-mapped projection surfaces, along with other screens following the same aesthetic.
About 20 of us who work for Shambhala music festival in Canada, just outside Nelson BC, had come down to help set up and take care the 'hosting and crew' portion of the camp and represent our festival. 
As I manage, design and build the 'Living room' stage there, and own the structure, I thought it a perfect opportunity to share with the Fractal Planet camp and beyond… It served well as a shade structure/ hang-out area/ lounge/ dance floor… "







The giant saddle tent of Camp Skinny Kitty Theahouse.
At night it's splendid on Jim Laux's picture.
