"We’re bringing a gorgeous Artcar called Fluffy to the Playa this year as a camp gift from Duane's Whirld to the Burning Man community, and it's insanely exciting." ~ Duane
Fluffy is accessible public transit masquerading as a wafting cloud to elicit and excite your dreams. A wheelchair lift and Braille rails make a mutant vehicle experience accessible to that many more Burners. Gifting forays provide iced liquid refreshment in the heat of the day (Deep Playa Beer Delivery) and warm gooey treats in the chill of the night (Smores).
Learn more about Fluffy from the Duanes Whirld Website and watch the build via our YouTube Channel.
