Who's going to make this thing?
Loki, the inventor of the
Cloud 9 artcar has done the preliminary designs based on idea he had with Lambchopini. Loki will responsible for the vehicle modifications, the griddle and anything mechanical. His good friend, inventor, metal sculptor, and fabricator William Morrow will build the chicken. Bill's extensive knowledge of metal working, engineering, and his wicked sense of humor makes him an ideal go-to man for a project of this scale...
And then there's YOU!
Yes!
You!!
We need your artistic, cheerleader, financial, inspirational, meditational, and transformational skills and energy! We can offer a LOT of fun, a chance to learn, and the comradery that comes from creating something truly unique and outlandish.
To volunteer.. email us!
Our griddle is Jesus approved!
Passengers? Can I get a ride?
Absolutely!
We will cruise the playa by night and welcome passengers, but be aware that this chicken will max out at 10 people. We plan on having room for 4-6 people in the base vehicle and space for 4-5 people in the body of the rooster. All are welcome, but priority seating will go to our many volunteers and team members.
Makes you want to volunteer, doesn't it?
Did you say griddle?
Yup.
We will build a large custom griddle over the rear of the vehicle and serve hot eggs every morning - a different style each day. Get 'em while you can!
While the base vehicle hasn't been selected yet, it will either be a 1963 Ford pickup truck or 70's era land yacht. We have to tow from Los Angeles, so it can't be too heavy, but the base vehicle has to be solid enough to support the rooster sculpture, passengers, and cooking griddle.
What's it built on?
What is it?
The GIANT COCK car is a mutant vehicle being built specifically for the Burning Man arts festival in Black Rock City, Nevada. Inspired by the outlandish and satirical, and hoping to answer the old addage of "which came first", the GIANT COCK will roam the desert by night and feed the hungry who make it through the dawn.
