AFTERBURN EFFIGY: THE BURNING CUBE
By the Bickford Brothers
Hey there all you PHantastic PHreaks, this is Bird with a short blog on the effigy for the first annual AFTERBURN in Lakeland, FL. The Idea for the “Burning Cube” was the brain child of Chris from Washington. Some of you might have met him at Soupstock last year; he is a friend of Deb silly. Anyway, he was in the Panhandle at the Bickford house for New Years last. Deb, Donna, Chris, my bro, Doug, and I got together for a NY party and of course had to BURN something. So after much brain storming, lots of beer, and just plain PHun, the first Burning Cube was built. We put 6 pallets together to form a cube, attached 2X6 legs to it to form a tripod, and stood it up. We now had this pallet cube about 10 feet in the air that we then preceded to stuff with fireworks, more wood, anything combustible. About dark thirty, fire was introduced and the games began. Much debate, lots more beer and test runs, even building a scale model brings us to the new and improved version. We added length to the legs and changed the angle, to put the cube even higher. Then for artistic flair and more fuel, the flaming plywood was added and a few other things up our sleeve for effect. So what we have is roughly a 5 foot square flaming cube, 16 feet in the air. Doug and I are stoked to be able to offer this art for others to enjoy. When we were told it was to be the center piece, my first thought was WOW what an honor, then all I can say, in my best newbie burner voice… Sweet, now BURN IT!

A BURNING DESIRE
I am asking for everyone who comes to bring one burnable object. I, and we, can then take these objects and attach them to free form burn structure. This now breeds creativity because we all have no idea what everybody brings and we will be amazed at how it turns out to look. Also, this causes greater passion and desire because everyone is now burning something they brought. A Burning Desire.

AFTERGLOW LOUNGE
af·ter·glow (ăf’ter-glō’)
NOUN:
1. The atmospheric glow that remains for a short time after sunset.
2. A lingering impression of past glory or success.
3. An impression or feeling, usually a pleasant one, that remains when the experience, etc that caused it is over.
4. A sense of fulfillment, completeness, and general well being that one feels after the effects of a psychoactive drug have faded, which can last from anywhere between one hour, and several days.
5. The feeling of contentment after ‘great-sex.’
Whatever your definition of Afterglow, when you’re ready to ‘chill’, find your way through the fog to the Afterglow Lounge…Comfy Pillows, Black Lights, Blinky Lights, Black Light Reflective Art…and impromptu popcorn and hot chocolate! Come feel the Afterglow!

THE GIVING TREE LOUNGE (under the fallen tree)
As we all know, people can be divided into two groups: Givers and Takers. At different times in our lives, everyone is either one or the other. At The Giving Tree Lounge, now is your chance to explore the inner peace of being a Giver, and the outer peace of being a Taker. Upon entry, you will be randomly given either a T or a G armband. This will let others know where you stand for that time. Simple rules: Takers can’t give, Givers can’t take. You can always trade your status; however, you will be publicly reprimanded in the lounge if we see a Taker giving, or a Giver taking. We are watching… “There will be none of that, there, and definitely none of this, here.” Also, per our theme, we ask folks to bring items to give away to the Takers only, and we ask for the Takers to be goddamn appreciative for once!!!! (and when they are Givers, to return in-kind) If you are looking to *give* a performance, this is the place. If you want to *take* a break, this is the place too. This bar is also a gift bar, which means, for those who are unfamiliar with this kind of bar, you give to get (booze). Bringing in a bottle to donate makes you a VIP Giver and Taker. Also, bringing your own cup will *give* you special rewards, which you can *take* or *give* away. The two main drinks are: “Cirrhosis of the Giver” and “Taker’s Tea”.

FACEHEAD (Geomagnetic.tv - Lancaster) Live!
Chuck Looper (AKA FaceHead), is one of those “saved by psy-trance” stories. Shortly after breaking free from a tarnished past a friend took him to his first psychedelic event in 2002. It changed his life. Since 1998 Chuck had been djing and producing his own blend of noisy experimental electronic music. After that first party, he went home and immediately started working on his first psy-trance track. Since then its been an obsession. Constantly searching for the most unique and bizarre sounds. FaceHead brings a style all his own that will leave you stomping away with question marks over your heads. You can expect dark and full-on with a wide variety of influences. Look for upcoming releases on Geomagnetic.tv.
