The Demon Garden

The Demon Garden

Join Burning Man philosopher and author Caveat Magister and collaborators as they walk us through the Demon Garden — a deeply personal and radically self-expressive ritual that invites participants to share and banish their inner demons.

As you tour the art, you’ll be treated to a discussion of the darker side of creating transformative experiences, and to the joys of creating experiences that access our shadow selves. Because art that can reach us, and move us, also has the potential to terrify us.

Burning Man Project has just published Caveat’s new book: Turn Your Life Into Art: Lessons in Psychomagic from the San Francisco Underground. The Demon Garden marks the first in a series of conversations he’ll have with artists and collaborators about the creation of art experiences that seem like magic and change lives.
