I saw a live performance using a 12 foot Tesla coil at Burning Man 2017 It was earthed to a 18 foot tall geodesic dome. They played a medley of tracks and then the base of the Tesla coil mildly exploded and started burning. I went by the next morning and the whole camp had packed up and left. Pretty awesome experience. If anyone knows any more about that project I'd love to hear it.

That's happened to me at Burning Man too. Entire buildings gone when I wanted to go and ask about what happened last night, like the camp never existed.

I like the anonymity and definitely be aware that no closure or responsibility is possible too!

I was camped right next to it, and I work with one of the people who built it.
