New Amsterdam Village
In 1625, the colony of New Amsterdam on Manhattan Island was founded by the Dutch,
who took as settlers anyone they thought could perform the necessary work to
make the colony a successful enterprise. In 2006, the Village of New Amsterdam
was founded by three drunken theme camp leaders willing to take on anyone they
thought could perform the necessary work to bring a new village to Burning Man.
The result is a hodgepodge of gnomes (Gnome Camp), aliens (Alien Underground
and the Hot Alien Lounge), craftswomen (Atelier Rusette), lovers (Smoochdome)
and big evil corporate executives (The Big Evil Corporation, Inc.), all thriving
symbiotically in the nexus of the past and the future.

Nexus
Nexus: A place to party. The spot to get your groove on, and then come back
to later, and then realize that you probably shouldn't have left in the first
place. It's on this year, we're dialing it in, turning it up, bringing the noise,
and of course blowing it up nonstop. Beats and freaks that will put a smile on
your face and a bounce in your step. Santa Francruz knows hows to party, so come
join us won't you? We'd love to have you. Side stage talent show performances
booked daily, email kawonkawon(at)yahoo.com or stop by the camp for details.

NucFam - the Nuclear Family
Black Rock City's favorite dysfunctional family is back in 2006! Come sit a spell
with us in the "Family Room" to unwind from the chaos of the playa and tell us your stories. If you are lucky, you may see the Fam Fatales spinning, hooping or eating fire. Nuc Fam will also be the landing zone for the infamous "Random Bistro" mutant vehicle. If you wish to board the Bistro, you will need to speak with the Mai'tre de and participate in a random game. Will you dare spin the ball of destiny and risk your fate to Fear or Hope? Do you have the moxy to tempt the "Vision Quest roulette" and let playa magic guide your journey? The Bistro serves up destiny and desire, not stinking cheese and frivilous cocktails! NucFam welcomes old friends (and camps) while always looking for new freaks to amuse us. This is not you typical family reunion.
