Full Moon Parties, architecture and Ecstasy

Full Moon Parties, architecture and Ecstasy

I am a graduated student in architecture at Arizona State
University. I am currently working on my masters thesis project which I
have proposed to be "A temporary desert structure for the dance
culture". My thesis is based on "Full Moon Parties", these are small
rave like parties in Arizona's Sonaran desert on the full moon.

What I am trying to focus with my thesis is on the
artistic side of the event and how architecture could enhance the "E"
experience.

Because of the illegal nature of the drugs present at these
events I have had to direct the attention of my project to the artistic
side of the event. I believe that architecture is the one side of the
event that has not been addressed and am trying to do so.
