EmergingMan was a campsite for broke attendees of the 2003 O'Reilly EmergingTechnology conference. It was, of course, a parody of BurningMan and kindly hosted by Danny, Quinn, Gilbert and their new baby Ada.
There were many pictures taken of both the conference and the EmergingMan party, see AdamShand/2003-05-01.
