Dreams came true as the Tetris-like Shipibo geometry squiggled across the Maloca-shaped Mirador at night.
 Overlook Effect  Ozora 2024 Main Stage   A kid peeks through the Wood Vibe Tribe's Infinity Shroom's blue-hued window, as Ozora Festival unfurls and swirls around the wooden mushroom-shaped trippy attraction. The Wood Vibe Tribe's creative wood-obsessed wizards have conjured up a magical blend of wood artistry, mixing carving, intarsia, and other woodworking skills into something truly unique and exciting. These tribal carpenters have even ventured into the realm of large installations, such as this LED-powered psychedelic pod, using 3D software design, unique frameworks, and small-scale prototyping.
 Psychedelic I
 Floral Projections of Buddha  7:30AM Friday Braincell set splashes from the Main Stage.  Morning Psytrance Mist  An entranced Ozorian comically transcribes morning transmissions emanating from the Main Stage on an antiquated typewriter.  Ozora Festival 2019 We're eleven days away from Ozora and the psychedelic stoke is steadily building up in volume. I'm currently planning a post Ozora trip and I'm considering visiting either the Croatian coast or Vienna post Budapest this year. It suddenly occurred to me to use AI to generate a suggested itinerary for a couple of Mozart devotees visiting Vienna in August in the style of a well-known composer, maybe you can discern who might've penned the itinerary below. Ah, Vienna! The city where Mozart’s genius still echoes through the cobblestone streets and grand concert halls. For a true devotee of the maestro, here’s an itinerary that will make your heart sing with joy, all set to the rhythm of the first week of August 2024.
Day 1: A Grand OvertureMorning:
 The notable American sculptor, Donald Lipski, designed a colossal thirty-foot Dalmation, SPOT!, delicately balancing a donated yellow Toyota Prius NYC Taxi on the tip of its noble snout.
 Fire in SoHo! A massive NYC fire broke out on the rooftop of a historic building in SoHo in the midst of last week's intense heat wave. I was capturing special summer solstice sunrise scenes from Dumbo when I noticed black smoke engulfing the NYC skyline. Apparently a good neighborly Samaritan tried to put the fire out with a garden hose before the FDNY quickly responded and went to battle with the historic Broome St. rooftop blaze on the morning of the summer solstice. Below are some photos I managed to take that emblazoned summer morning.
Summer Solstice Block Party
An entire Manhattan city block on the Lower East Side was blocked off and hermetically sealed for a secret, first-official-day-of-summer pop-up techno block party celebration, powered-up and fueled by the Belgian minimalist acid-techno DJ and producer, Charlotte de Witte. An impressive sonic spectacle blaring from the depths of loud vibrating speakers stopped all sorts of curious pedestrian, bicycle, and vehicular traffic as the setting summer sun hid behind golden-lit skyscrapers and ravers danced with strangers.
 i-Rave
Beatport was in on the scene capturing how the block party unfolded so the rest of the world could stream and see what occasionally goes down on Orchard St. on certain summer-induced circumstances. The heatwave, it seems, simply added to the heat that was generated in the LES that evening. People, I could attest, were absolutely drenched in sweat, in that very special way that only an overpopulated outdoor heatwave summer rave in the city could generate.
