This is a sound collage that I made for the interior hidden space underneath the oversized desk of the art installation, "Big Dirty Secret", which I helped my best friend, Oz Wilcox (Crazy Safe), bring to Burning Man 2018.  It was a continuation of last year's project, "Little Dirty Secret", which consisted of a tiny desk+chair at which people were asked to write+submit their dirty secrets, anonymously.  I curated those secrets for this sound collage, which was playing at the end of a dimly-lit sensuous corridor that could be accessed behind a false set of drawers on one side of the desk.  I had my friends in Tri-Cities, WA help by reciting the most interesting secrets that we received from the year before. 

Many thanks to [Oz, Van, Courtney, Sara, Rock, Kandis, CraftMatt, Carolyn, Tori, Steph, Brandon, Jeremy, and Avery] for helping recite other people's secrets. Thanks to [Courtney + Tyson] for technical advice.  Thanks to the anonymous people who shared their crazy + intimate secrets with us last year.  Thanks to Miao + Plum + Meru for sharing their dust-free space at BM, inside which this was edited. Thanks to Oz for the brilliant idea, awesome handiwork + art partnership, great hospitality, sweet smokebombs, growth, & opportunity.  And an insanely incendiary burn!!! (We burned the art piece at the end of the Burning Man festival)!!
