Burner Culture Encyclopedia

↓

Experimental Print Design

Objective
This project aimed to create a visual encyclopedia about a cultural phenomenon related to my thesis project.

Role
I worked on this assignment independently with feedback from my instructor and classmates.

Outcome
The culture phenomenon I chose was "Burner Culture". Burner culture refers to the lifestyle, belief structure, sometimes compared to religious tendencies of people who attend the Burning Man Festival. Although many philosophers and critics have claimed that Burning Man is a religious event, it is rooted in humanistic and entirely secular beliefs. The Burning Man Festival is frequently described as sacred, despite its lack of religious origin or intent.

The final project consists of a digital collage made up of excerpts from articles and images regarding Burner Culture.
