Dragon King suggested a Japanese Torii Gate as the entrance to camp as they represent the transition from the everyday world into the sacred, in this case the transition to The Sacred Yes. The Snarchitect—with his obession with Taoism, Buddhism, and Eastern philosophy—immediately got fired up on this idea. When I mentioned this to Ranger Twilight, he said he always wanted to see a good Torii Gate on playa and, serendipitously, had sketches from many years prior. That's how you know an idea is resonant. Read the proposal here.

The process is simple: take the good, leave the bad, experiment with the new. Over and over and over again. Here's the full backstory of how this idea came to be.
