TREE OF TÉNÉRÉ at Burning Man | by DRIFT

The Tree of Ténéré is created in partnership with Zachary Smith, Alexander Green, Mark C. Slee, Patrick Deegan and DRIFT. The Tree of Ténéré is an interactive light sculpture with 175.000 led's, referring to the strongest natural symbol of life flourishing in the most difficult circumstances. In the southern Sahara desert, in a region called Ténéré, a solitary tree stood alone. It was the most isolated tree on Earth.The Tree of Ténéré became an important ceremonial gathering place for traders and travelers as they crossed the desert. It brought people together for community, ritual and rest. Unfortunately almost 50 years ago it was mysteriously destroyed by a lone truck driver. The Tree of Ténéré team wanted to create live size sculpture creating a space where cultures and travelers can meet without prejudice and expectation towards each other. With reviving this symbol the team aims to create a place where people come together and share there different life paths. The programming of the tree is location and season dependent. The tree has multiple sensorial input creating interactivity by measuring brain frequency's, hart rate and movement.
