The Golf Cart Art Car Wiki - Endless Tracks
A burning man vehicle to
- collect track logs from other Burner's and display them on a map in the cart, and on the web as desired by the participants. Here is an early sample of an animation from 2003 : http://testingrange.com/geotest/bm1.svg
- carry a 'compass' needle that can point where desired
- collect waypoints and track logs to geoannotate my burning man experience
The car will have a frame with a sunshade, and a compass needle that will spin around and point where it is directed by the computer in the cart.
This will answer questions like 'whcih way is it to the house of cards?'
It will also have a chart table with several different GPS cables connected to computers. So we will give people advice on collecting track logs, and we will download those tracks and display them on a display.
This will be a gift to the community.
We will also be handing out AA batteries to folks who need them.

YEP-Mobile / Telenomadic Golf Cart / Mobile Geoannotation Device / etc
I have a golf cart. The plan is to make it into an interesting art car and drive it around Burning Man handing out Yahoo Education Project publications.

I am unable to constrain my interests, so this poor little golf cart is also a mobile geo annotation tool, and NoCat mobile base station and telenomadic test bed.
All in the interests of tickling whichever of my fancies most needs to be tickled!
This is a wiki, so anyone can add to it...here is something that was added
Someone else's cart has lift kit, rims, dual exhast, pretty cool for them.
