there to cover it.
From Aug. 29 to Sept. 5, upwards of 40,000 people will gather in
the desert to celebrate this iconic counterculture festival’s
second decade in existence, and Bruin staff photographer Michael
Sun will be on hand to document what it means to live for one week
with no boundaries to artistic expression ““ and where college
students fit into the mix.
Check out the Daily Bruin Web site at dailybruin.ucla.edu on
