Secret third places

The Spectacle

We talk with old pal Dan Abbot of Bobby joe Ebola about Geekfest. The freaky music festival organized by literal children in the bay area in the 90s borne out of an increasingly insular punk subculture in the wake of Green Day blowing up the spot. We also discuss Temporary Autonomous Zones, what happened to make Burning Man go from something anarchistic to its current form, and how to find each other flesh-world style in arguably the most alienated age in human history.
