How was the idea born?
Basically, the project was born thanks to the insistence of two Burners who, determined to take the festival to another level, saw the current situation as a great opportunity to give life to certain ideas that they had in the past and that they could never complete. Now, given the situation, they have been boosted by the current trend of working from home.
The result is a total of various experiences that form a multiverse where you can enjoy different creations, each one more psychedelic. Because of course, don't expect to enjoy great graphics or a large virtual experience. Here everything is handmade and has an extravagant point that not everyone could understand. But if you already knew what Burning Man was about, you might be mentally prepared to see anything. (Or not).
