      Met you fine folks at Precompression and I had to support! Many a sleepless night with art cars and sound camps, but it would be so nice for more folks to explore this walk-in area and get away from it all to recharge a bit!

      This is the best thing since sliced bread, or glow fur.
      I once had an old slice of bread that was furry and sorta glowing.

      This is a wonderful first. What is a city without a "park", a quiet place to relax? In many parks there are structures built by man, that coexists with nature. I became a backer after I saw the model in Hollywood and had lunch with the artist and crew bringing this to a reality. Although I am one of the agents of "sound", I look forward to escaping away and spending some quiet time like a sunset, or even a sunrise on this wonderful work away from the sound. Please help support this project and be a part of it. It is in itself historic for Burning Man's history.

    PLATINUM LEVEL: Unbelievably, the Otic Oasis structure is constructed without the use of metal, nails or glue. Instead artist Gregg Fleishman has patented unique geometric connectors, or nodes, to magically assemble his structures. For your generosity, we will send you one of his Full-size Nodes, router cut from Finland birch, signed by the artist. It is an interactive and unique piece of playa art you will want to display in your home since not only is it art, but it is a puzzle and a conversation piece. Sent to you flat with video instructions to assemble. And yes, all the wonderful gifts through the Silver Level! See the connector here: http://db.tt/3Gnx7by

    SUPER STAR LEVEL: If you join the ride here, we will give you something worth much more than your donation to the project. Gregg has designed the most ingenious "Sculpt Chairs" that are router cut from a single piece of Finland birch.

His signed chairs retail for more than the pledge amount. He has generously created a signed Special Edition of a new style Flame Chair. For this donation, you will receive *two* child Flame Chairs. Also includes all the items through the Gold Level. An image of the original 1980's Flame Chair in yellow is at left.

    PATRON LEVEL: We bow down. So much so that we will actually give you the large shade structure from Gregg's 2010 camp, which is a pyramid central space with a semi-enclosed chill space adjacent to it -- all wood, no metal, in the spirit of Gregg's design ethos. Finally create that interesting gathering space for your camp, or mini-RV park, that you have been dreaming about. See the photo of the 2010 camp at bottom left. We will even transport the shade structure to the playa, supervise and help you set it up and break it down, and we can even take it back to the Los Angeles for you and you can pick it up there. Imagine the possibility of a no hassle, aesthetically pleasing camp this year - truly invaluable! Also includes all the items through the Gold Level for you and five friends and family.
