~)'(~ We are back for one more year at the LA State Historical Park. This is probably be our last year in the park, so lets really pull out all the stops and make this year the absolutely MOST PARTICIPATORY year ever. We would love to see a record breaking number of theme camps, art installations, and performance troupes in the park.

~)'(~ 8 Stages of Entertainment, Tons of Art and Activities for All Ages
~)'(~ Wow!!! Are you as excited as I am? Monday we will announce the line up but word has been leaking out and we have some AMAZING talent from all over the Western seaboard firing up our stages.
Here are some fun interactive ways you can participate in LA Decom . .
The Burner Bizarre is setting up again this year, except this time its a full on clothing swap. Thats right. You are invited to clean out our closets. Clothing for all ages is welcome from infant to full grown. Also hats, handbags, gloves, shoes, and other accessories are welcome as well. And of course costume items are always welcome. Bring a big bag or just a few items. And while you are there gifting your stuff, go through what others have brought and take home some new duds. All left over clothing will be donated to "My Friends Place"
www.myfriendsplace.org
Tabula Rasa is also coming back again this year. They are the beading and jewelry making camp. At BM this year they were place at Center Camp on Ring Road and therefore their beads were pretty depleted. They are asking everyone to bring their broken necklaces, left over beads, buttons, and crafting stuff. Anything that you could make jewelry out of and help resupply. And of course stay for a while and make something for yourself.
EcoSalon invites you to please bring your favorite teas (bagged) to Decom to enjoy with others at the EcoSalon 2010: a place to share environmental knowledge, meet the expers and ask questions over a nice cup o' tea! Please remember to bring your reusable mug (or water bottle)!
Midnight Ridazz: Bike Ride to Decom
Bust out your blingy and blinky bikes, it's time to party!!!
You can get around Black Rock City on a bike, so why not in our own "Metropolis" of Los Angeles?
On Saturday, October 2, 2010, the LA Burning Man Decompression Festival ("Decom") - the destination of this ride - will be taking place with the theme of envisioning what a "Metropolis" could be, cutting across the art and theme camps this year.
Could LA be more like Black Rock City? Imagine seeing everyone on bikes?? Like Burning Man, LA will be closing several streets to cars the next weekend after Decom so pedestrians, bikes, skaters, and everyone else can enjoy the first-ever CicLAvia event - ciclavia.org - in our town; check it out!
Show up at Decom in style with your biking buddies from Midnight Ridazz, whether you've been to Burning Man or not :-)
There will be a contest to see who has the best "blinky" lighting and best bling on your bike!
Meet at 4:20 PM :-) in front of the street entrance to the Metro Red Line Hollywood/Highland Station, riding to Decom at the LA State Historic Park ("the Cornfields") in downtown.
The route will be mostly downhill, with two small uphills; the ride should take about an hour.
Just like Burning Man, this is a self-directed activity by each person, so bring your "radical self-reliance" to take care of your bike if you have a flat tire, etc., and don't forget to bring a bike lock too!
C-ya there )'(
