Reclamation of a Stolen Heart 

by Bronze Holbein and Strength in Numbers Collective

Created by a collection of artists intending to make an artist collective that aims to create a more hospitable environment for creators in the Bay Area of Northern California, we find out just what they want out of an art collective.  With an Honoraria Grant from Burning Man, they are bringing out Reclamation of the Stolen Heart to Black Rock City, 2024.  We learn about how they are working together to make that happen and how they are starting their artist’s collective to build more art in the future together and support each other as artists.

Dylan Hogan, aka Major Trouble!

DJ and Producer

My guest is Dylan Hogan, aka Major Trouble – The founder of BRC Snow Club, resident DJ for Disco Donutz (Heavy Petting Zoo), and former board member of Airpusher and Sextant Camp.

I talked with him in March, 2024. To introduce him to you, I am using the words of Joel Kristopher, Zookeeper at Heavy Petting Zoo, who recently posted about his friend, Major Trouble:  “Huge! Massive! Epic! Shout out to my brother from another Unicorn, Dylan Hogan, aka Major Trouble for all that he has recently accomplished, with no plans of slowing down. Last year Dylan, with the help of his hottie in crime, Rachael Gingery, created the Black Rock City Snow Club, who brought the 1st Ski, Sled and Snowboard hill to Burning Man. During this same time, he also dove deep into music production, producing 8+ original house bangers to fill his set with at Breakfast of Champions. Keep it up Boo! I’m proud of you”!  (abbreviated)

Camp Kitchen Leads Tell Us Tips

Big or small camps and villages as well as pre-build crew care teams can learn from three kitchen leads sharing their knowledge and experience to make it easier for us all to set up our own kitchens.  

If you have a camp that has a camp kitchen, if you are thinking about setting one up for the first time, if you cook at all on the playa, then this podcast might be for you.  How do the big camps do it?   What’s the best way to freeze things and can I have food delivered to camp on playa?  What about food and safety? All these questions and more are answered by Amber, Kat and Anthony who all have kitchen experience.  Share this podcast on your camp discussion groups!
