Oakland photographer Sean Donnelly produced a really great video segment for The Oakland Tribune/Bay Area Insider about The Raygun Gothic Rocketship, a 40′ tall retro rocket art installation built by Sean Orlando and a team of 60 artists in West Oakland that is sure to be one of the highlights of this year’s Burning Man.
