SeaCompressionSix
SeaCompression is a party for Burning Man enthusiasts and people interested in getting a glimpse of what happens at the fire festival in Nevada. At this event on Saturday night, Burning Man camps will display art and art cars, deejays and live musicians play music, and there is a big slideshow of photos from past Burning Mans. And fire! There is always fire at this party, usually in the form of fire dancers.
From the description of the event at Brown Paper Bag tickets:
Come decompress from the great dust storms of '07 with over 25,000 square feet of performance, fire, music, and art! We expect major theme installations from Flight 2 Mars, Black Rock City Animal Control, Dead Letter Camp, just to name a few; dozen of DJs and live musicians on three sound stages; an expanded art gallery; chill spaces galore; a video festival; and more!
It is called SeaCompression because it is in Seattle and it rhymes with Decompression, which is a similar event held in San Francisco every year. The idea behind the party is that people have a hard time adjusting to real life after attending Burning Man, and this party revisits the euphoric party atmosphere of the festival. See pictures of some of the people who attended last year's Seacompression here. More pictures here. This is a fun event if you like dancing and techno. I like punk rock, but I have attended this event and I had a great time despite the techno. The crowd is generally liberal professionals and artists in their 20s - 40s. Wearing "burning man attire" is encouraged, so you will see a lot of neon fake fur and skimpy outfits.
