Principles
Nowhere is built on the following key principles, inspired by Burning Man:
- Self-expression
The freedom to be in a creative and liberating space.
- Radical self-reliance
You are responsible for yourself.
- No commerce
Bring all you need because you can’t buy it there.
- Leave no trace
Create something from nothing, and leave nothing behind. (This means you take all your trash back with you, there are no trash bins or recycling.)
- Participation
Get involved – this is not an event for spectators.

Famous quotes containing the word principles:
“The proclamation and repetition of first principles is a constant feature of life in our democracy. Active adherence to these principles, however, has always been considered un-American. We recipients of the boon of liberty have always been ready, when faced with discomfort, to discard any and all first principles of liberty, and, further, to indict those who do not freely join with us in happily arrogating those principles.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
“Syntax is the study of the principles and processes by which sentences are constructed in particular languages. Syntactic investigation of a given language has as its goal the construction of a grammar that can be viewed as a device of some sort for producing the sentences of the language under analysis.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
“That, upon the whole, we may conclude that the Christian religion not only was at first attended with miracles, but even at this day cannot be believed by any reasonable person without one. Mere reason is insufficient to convince us of its veracity: And whoever is moved by Faith to assent to it, is conscious of a continued miracle in his own person, which subverts all the principles of his understanding, and gives him a determination to believe what is most contrary to custom and experience.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
