Before the blasted thing has even started, this year’s Burning Man is teetering on the brink of being painfully mainstream. When Adobe starts covering the desert-scraping shenanigans of two nutty new-media goofballs, it’s time for us to find another instant Bartertown.
“This year, Adobe.com will take its own creative journey to Burning Man. A small team will present digital video, art, and stories from the playa. Each day, noted photojournalist Rick Smolan and Adobe Senior Creative Director Russell Brown — dressed as Aladdin and outfitted with his patented Flying Carpet Cam — will present a short video report of their desert visions.”
Maybe Mike will do us all a favor and salvage a bit of the original Burning Man shimmy by whacking Russell upside the head with a six-foot cardboard representation of an original Photoshop toolbar. One can only hope.
