Gerlach, Nevada becomes Virtual Reality!

Burning Man Nonsense
 
Would there be room for people as cynical as us amongst you warm-hearted individuals?
-- Lee

 

Burning Man attendees pass through Gerlach, Nevada -- a mysterious small town where everything is owned by a man named Bruno. Crazy Berkeley geeks simulated a 360 panorama using Virtual Reality technology!

Click your mouse on the picture, and the view rotates. Lead the point of view up, down, and around -- past the water tank, the state of Nevada historical marker, the telephone poles along the railroad tacks... See the road thousands have crossed, with hope and excitement, curiousity, fear... all rendered with a Quicktime wrap-around view.

It may not be virtual reality, but it's still pretty cool. Plus, there's also links to a bunch of other panorama sites...

Over.  End of Story.  Go home now.
