Man In The Box at Burning Man

Christian "Dicky" Davis is spending a week at Burning Man sealed within a 10 x 10 Plexiglas box. From the San Francisco Chronicle (photo by Chris Stewart):

Dicky doesn't like to dance to electronica. Dicky doesn't like glo-sticks or pink cowboy hats. Dicky doesn't trust touchie-feelie strangers who want to be his best friend.

But he very much likes Burning Man's desert art, so his roommate Logan Mirto decided to turn Dicky's anxieties into an interactive sculpture that would make him more comfortable on the playa: A clear room with clean white Ikea furniture and a mail slot to accept notes, food and gifts from the community. He can mingle, on his own terms.
