Lets hear about the levers. How does voting work?
Voting will be conducted via the web. The precise interface and methods for doing this are still being discussed. The Art Council will be comprised of the following components: six (6) local seats representing the San Francisco Bay Area; two (2) national seats representing anywhere else in the U.S.; (1) international seat representing all those countries that don’t have George W. Bush for a president. The 6-2-1 division was based on actual demographics of Burning Man attendees. If these demographics shift in the future, it would be expected that the balance of representative seats would also shift, just like the U.S. Congress (lower house) does it. Voting for Guest Curator will have a “winner-takes-all” outcome. Most votes takes the position, pure and simple.
