Actually, you're wrong. TAZ *was* the blueprint for the early rave scene, or at least a big segment of it.
http://hyperreal.org/raves/spirit/po...be_Rising.html
"When we come together for a ritual such as a Full Moon Rave on a remote beach, we are creating what author Hakim Bey calls a Temporary Autonomous Zone. A rave creates a TAZ of relatively short duration, only a few hours, but during that time, we are functioning at the level of _Community_. In the area that has been appropriated, a separate code of ethics and behavior can be enacted."
---
Eventually, collectives that modeled their parties after TAZ began to die out, and were replaced by promoters that took the focus away from community. There are still remnants left, a handful of crews and things like, uh...Burning Man, but the only thing in life that is consistent is change. So, change happens, for better or worse, and I'm fine with it.
Klover, I think you talk too much. And you think too much. And your posts don't make nearly the amount of sense you think they do.
Maybe that's why "fruend" was ribbing you. Whatever, I've spent too much attention on this thread. Take it easy.
