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:
“Indigenous to Minnesota, and almost completely ignored by its people, are the stark, unornamented, functional clusters of concrete—Minnesota’s grain elevators. These may be said to express unconsciously all the principles of modernism, being built for use only, with little regard for the tenets of esthetic design.”
—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“Ah, I fancy it is just the same with most of what you call your “emancipation.” You have read yourself into a number of new ideas and opinions. You have got a sort of smattering of recent discoveries in various fields—discoveries that seem to overthrow certain principles which have hitherto been held impregnable and unassailable. But all this has only been a matter of intellect, Miss West—superficial acquisition. It has not passed into your blood.”
—Henrik Ibsen (1828–1906)
“Custom is our nature.... What are our natural principles but principles of custom?”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
