Fiobles Mench

Fiobles Mench was originally an event proposed for Burning Man 2007, but it was not funded and the space, “a muti-use performance area with elevated audience,” was not permitted. So, as is wont to happen, it was delayed, but has now found a home this Saturday, May 16th, at NIMBY.

The plot follows the evolution of humanity from primitive to modern and beyond. Early humans frolic in the forest, then develop and build machines first to improve and then to unwittingly destroy their environment, with the machines eventually taking over and destroying everything including themselves.

Indeed-y. You will also get music by Kerry Walsh and TradeMark G, along with the fire robots of Justin Grey. Classy and awesome. What else could you ever want?
