BURN2 is an extension of the Burning Man project and community into the world of Second
Life. It is an officially sanctioned Burning Man Regional and is the only virtual world Regional
out of more than 100 real world Regional groups. We bring Burning Man culture and
community to the virtual world of Second Life.
The annual BURN2 festival showcases a lot of virtual art! Some participants create VERY
LARGE ART INSTALLATIONS, while others create interactive THEME CAMPS.
Every year, BURN2 gives away free plots for juried art installations and theme camps. These
juried plots are larger than the randomly selected lottery plots which were given in the
“Plottery.”
Anyone can apply for a Juried Plot, from newbie builders, to the seasoned, well known
artists. The Art Team jury will select the winners, judging applicants on artistic merit and build
interactiveness.
People can apply for a Juried Plot by filling out the simple application located at the BURN2
website: http://burn2.org/juried_camp_form
The theme this year is "CARGO CULT"; however there is no requirement that artists create to
the theme. Learn more about the theme here:http://www.burningman.com/art_of_burningman/bm13_theme.html
Some important dates for the Juried Camp Application Process include:
Applications for juried plots open: 7/16/13
Applications for juried plots close: 8/16/13
Juried selections announced: 9/1/13
Building starts: 9/17/13

All builders and artists agree to comply with the Ten Principals of Burning Man and BURN2
(http://www.burn2.org/tenprinciples) and the BURN2 Builder Guidelines
(http://www.burn2.org/Builderguidelines). All builders and artists agree to comply with Linden
Lab’'s Terms of Service and Community Standards.
We encourage the press to provide this information to the public, and we hope to see lots of
wonderful art on the BURN2 playa this year!
Thank you,
The BURN2 Art Team
