All Highlights

Tortuga

In the harsh light of day, when whiteout dust storms sweep across the playa, Tortuga moves with purpose and grace. Her turtle shell geometry cuts through the wind, a beacon of calm in the chaos.

She provides shelter, a moving sanctuary where burners can rest, connect, and find respite from the elements. Inside her protective shell, cushioned benches offer comfort while the desert rages outside.

Saboku

It’s a living sculpture, a kinetic experiment that wakes up after dark, breathing LEDs and sound-reactive patterns across the playa.

Every year, Saboku evolves. Every year, it glows stronger.

Is a mutant vehicle born from a bold idea: to build a moving creature entirely out of polygons and light.
