HugNation 9.11.07 Road To Burning Man (PART 1 of 3)
A story about the trials of getting to Burning Man before a glorious hug (part 1 of 3)
The Webby Awards allow winners to give a 5 word speech. Only 5 words. Like some sort of geek haiku. Itâs great because it forces people to be pretty darn creative. In 2000, I used my 5 words to play charades. This year I tried to so something along the same lines. My speech didnât work well in textâ¦But Iâm really happy with how it felt. It was like a â21 Hug Saluteâ to Grandpa. I felt authentic in that moment. I felt like I was sitting in the still truth that roots Hug Nation. I was standing in Love. THANK YOU to everyone who is a part of Hug Nation. Thank you for all the love. ((HUG))
I made a 15 minute tribute video for Grandpa. It will be avail soon on GrandpaCaleb.com. In the meantime, here is the end of the video. Features music by Justin Connor.
(LOWER RES VERSION) 10 min tribute to the co-founder of HugNation. Music by Justin Connor.
part 2 of the Road to Burning Man story
A glorious hug nation! And a little ranting against criticism.
This year's piece from Halcyon & Lustmonkey.com. It was a year of less dancing and more tears. Of love and magic and growth. It was a year of intense gratitude and hope. And it was the year I said goodbye to Grandpa.
end of the Roast to Burning Man story and the HUG
The audio isn't ideal, but some cool footage from the magical Hugnation we did in front of Center Camp on Friday at Burning Man. After teh hug, I brought Grandpa's ashes to the temple. (Video of that experience coming soon)
A few words about going for the high road. (played with green screen and mics in this episode....so I apologize for tech troubles)
