In the mid to late 90's Yoms happened to see a piece of a strange video late at night of people in costumes on some odd bus in the desert before going to bed. It so transfixed him he had to wake up and watch all the way through the credits until he found what he was looking for. What is this Burning Man thing?
Yoms was working for the BBC and convinced them to send him to the playa for a fact finding reporting trip. This would begin his decades long love affair with Black Rock City. Yoms was a fixture volunteering at Media Mecca for many years.
In later years he decided to bring the lessons of the playa out into the default world. Yoms started a group called "We Are From Dust" to showcase Black Rock artists out in the wider world. They have created installations of burner art in various places. Their most ambitious attempt was renting of an island to showcase burner art during the Venice Binnale.
In more recent years Yoms has been working on some film projects including Breathe, Clockwork Watch, and his new project Age Of Quorum. This last project he is working on right now and he can use your help to complete it. Please help by contributing to the fundraising effort to help complete this film by going to https://gofund.me/ed6403ef and thank you for contributing!
