It's mostly people who believe in the spirituality that can be acheived through taking extasy and GHB, and eating sand...I have no idea which type that describes!

Did anyone watch the film clip? I thought it was fascinating as he described WHAT the different temperaments do in that self-organizing environment (i'm not telling, check it out for yourself.)

I watched about half of it. The audio quality sucks, and I hate straining to listen to things, but I got the gist of what he was saying. It was interesting in a topical way, if generalizing is what you are after.
His chorts of building the city were:
(1) SPs first
(2) NTs second
(3) NFs third
(4) SJs last
In reality, the 4 waves of people would be mixed.
I am of the belief that it takes a good case mix of people, a fair amount of diversity of thought, to do any significant endeavor well.
But I understand his example, and they were useful to hear in that context.
Haa Haa, the response was funny though.
It's not safe to mix MDMA with sand, I hope no one does that.

There is no order.
All I did was copy+paste all 16 types.
Asking what type would go, defeats the entire purpose of the event itself.
What is Burning Man?
Burning Man: What is Burning Man?: The Experience
Mission Statement:
Burning Man: What is Burning Man?: Mission Statement
It's basically an event with a goal of fostering growth and transformation through the power of creativity.
It's certainly better than having an event encouraging the use of MBTI.

Oh, it's not about you.
I'm waiting for someone to start a thread about what type has diarrhea on Fridays.

Um...maybe I should start this thread over...
What I thought would be interesting is whether people with different temperaments would agree/disagree with the way the speaker (an NT) sees them engaging in Burning Man.
As for type gatherings--they are never about how to get people to use the MBTI, they're about how to make constructive use of differences via the theory. And they aren't Burning Man, but you don't have to scrape the sand out of every belonging you brought afterward either...alcohol consumption is probably on a par but less ecstacy...
