Forest of Confusion: 2024 Burning Man Art Project

Donation protected
We're more excited than a narwhal at a unicorn party to announce our 2024 art project
"Forest of Confusion"!

Imagine wandering up to an art project and finding yourself in a whimsical, interactive grove of 25 Colorado Blue Spruce trees.

The daytime tree foliage will be reflective and shimmer in the breeze. After dark participants will interact with networked trees activated by motion-sensitive LEDs. Wifi network controls on each tree will create an array of colors and human interaction will affect the visuals.

The spruces are self-sufficient, solar-powered, and can be recharged if the sun does not cooperate.

That’s a magical mashup of Colorado’s stunning nature and a sprinkle of our signature Narwhal charm.

We need YOUR help to bring this fantastical forest to life. Creating art isn't cheap, nor are glittery narwhal horns (trust us, we checked).

Project Description:
Our 3-sided trees are made of an EMT frame with metallic camo netting inside. Each side of the tree will be framed by two strands of individually addressable LEDs.

At night the trees will have a blue spruce glow until participants approach and activate the motion sensors which start a light-based puzzle that ends in a full forest light show.

The trees will be powered by solar panels and batteries. They will be secured to the playa by lag bolts.

If you’ve ever laughed at our campfire jokes, danced with us under the stars, or just love the idea of a Colorado-inspired wonderland at Burning Man, now’s your chance to support our dream.
