The Pancake People has become one of the most loved Theme Camps at Afrikaburn. This is because of the crew’s overwhelming commitment to share love and joy that spreads from our camp like a blanket over the Playa. We do this at a time when most burners are hungover and moody from a night of partying and processing. We dance the night away just like every one else but then we wake up, wipe the sleep from our eyes, clean up, get the batter going, get the Dj going and then open our hearts to welcome in children and adults alike for the best morning experience you will ever have ! Burners walk into our camp grumpy and leave with a heart full of love to share with all the other burners they will meet that day. We have been doing this every morning for over 10 years on the trot and have a huge community of Pancake People lovers who come for their dose of love, joy and cinnamon! 
The Crossing consists of two groupings of elements. A rigid line cuts through the landscape, a boundary that may represent law, structure, or control. Intersecting this line are more organic forms that rise irregularly, as though shaped by wind, erosion, or time. The line may be read as a border or a threshold, a boundary between order and chaos, captivity and freedom, life and death. Movement unfolds across this divide. From one perspective, the passage across the line could represent departure or exile, figures leaving something familiar behind. From another, the same movement may suggest arrival, a transition toward possibility and renewal. The Crossing comes together through shared effort, people learning, experimenting, problem-solving, and physically constructing something at scale. It exists because of a community, for a short time, shaped by the desert and the people within it. As with many desert installations, the sculpture is intended to transform through fire. When it ultimately burns, the work completes its own crossing, shifting from structure into flame, light, and ash.
