Apparently, it is a social faux pas of almost unforgivable proportions to refer to 'The Man' as 'The Wicker Man'.

The correct term is 'The Man'.

The difference? 'The Wicker Man' is a 1973 film staring Edward Woodward and re-made in 2006 with Nicolas Cage. 'The Man' at Burning Life isn't either of these.

The 'Wicker Man' installed on the playa.

Traditionally, Dusty Linden informs us, the arms of The Man point downwards until the very last day. On the last day, just before it is set on fire, the arms are moved so that they point upwards at 60 degrees.

Burning Life starts on the 17th Oct midday SLT. Our installation/performance is the last official event before the festival ends, on the 25th Oct, and kicks-off the post-festival party.

The 'Wicker Man' installation for Burning Life 2009 is coming on well and we expect to have completed the first fully working demo this weekend.

The whole performance will last around 10mins. It will be performed three times on the last day of BL 2009 to accommodate all timezones. Three sims have been reserved for the audience and the installation will be located on a fourth sim that is restricted to 20 avatars (Gypsy, Elfod & I, Lindens and key BL 2009 Crew)

As part of this development, Gypsy has invented and coded an innovative HUD. This HUD supplements the Master Controller (that we use for Wall, Rings, Metropolis) and allows easy second-by-second monitoring of the performance and the ability to re-issue any command without interrupting with the show or having to "rollback".

But this HUD also has great potential for other shows. I see it being used to create spontaneous actions in 'VJazz' type performances, for example, and performances like those from Tuna Oddfellow (which you really should go and see sometime, if you haven't already!)

Gypsy is working on adding additional features; I am tweeking and making it more user-friendly and Vela has a copy under his microscope for close examination.

I suspect that out of this will develop an extremely useful and versatile tool that can be used on many future CARP projects.

Pleased to say that Elfod Nemeth is joining Gypsy & I on the 'Wicker Man' installation for BL 2009.

Gypsy will do the build, I will do the particle effects and Elfod will script the collapse.

Sneak preview...
