Santa Cruz To Be Represented At Burning Man 2014 With A Huge Wave Art Structure
An homage to the ocean 75 Foot Long By 18 Foot High
Cruz the Wave is a Santa Cruz, CA based art project destined for Burning Man 2014. The project will capture the power and beauty of a breaking wave and transport it to the middle of the playa. At 18ft high and 75ft long, constructed of wood and lit by LEDs, the project will be the largest wave this dried up lake has seen for thousands of years.
Even though Santa Cruz has had a lot of artists that display their art at Burning Man individually, this is the first time Santa Cruz is represented as a community.
“This is the biggest art piece I have ever built”, said Bob Marzewski (Wizzard), who is known for The Mayan Tricycle a huge art installation he built for Burning Man 2012.
“This is the first time our region will be represented, so we decided to introduce Santa Cruz to Burning Man with something big”, said Wit, “It is an homage to what we all hold dear, the ocean”.
The project has already begun construction, but we have a long way to go. We need your help! Volunteers for construction, help with fundraising and donations of any amount are greatly appreciated.

First off I DESPISE what's left of "Burning Man". It was "done" after just a couple of years.
Further Real Santa Cruzers don't pay hundreds of dollars to a commercial business entity (Burning Man... NOT non-profit) to sit in the desert making like pseudo-Rainbow family hipster locust after collecting 'donations' to give to that business while they vacation and influence peddle... because they're typically jobless and houseless.
Try again in a few years when the Google Bus people have swarmed here. THEY understand profiteering and have the money to throw around.

Maybe these people would care to explain why they're keeping the name of the domain owner @ cruzthewave.org private? It's NOT required, and it DOES cost money to do so.
Why so secret?
I think I'll do some exploratory research on the social networks of the people listed as parties to this and find some common connection... Like local business interests (panhandling) us.

What's the social justice angle?
It's just a bunch of doofuses raising money so that they can build something and then burn it down.
There are so many people in need and they want to raise $8000 for this stupid bullshit.
Fuck burning man
