“A Burning Man, 1990”

Larry Harvey gained access to free video equipment through the Bay Area Video Coalition, which resulted in two videos based on film from early Burns.

The first video was created around 1990 by Peter Hassan, with help from Larry and features quotes from Larry, with ambient music by Brian Eno and William Empson. Third Wave Productions produced it (one of their first productions). It shows the raising of the Man in 1990 on Baker Beach, and it being again raised and burned at the first Burning Man at Black Rock Desert.

This 2002 re-mastering improved both the audio and video of the original version. It was never publicly released to our knowledge.
