Session Proposals
The final schedule for SkeptiCamp NYC 2026 has not been finalized, yet. It should be published a week or two before the event. The Program Guide will follow some days after.
The following sessions have not, yet, been approved to be on the schedule. And, of course, they are subject to change, since they are merely proposals.

Burning Man: Fact vs Fiction |

If you've never been there, chances are fairly good that everything you think you know about the annual Burning Man event, taking place in the middle of a desert in Nevada, is either wrong or greatly exaggerated. The media likes to overplay its perceived disasters. Social media has historically made it look like some sort of Coachella clone. Though, recently it has taken on more of a reputation for being a worthless playground of the elitist 1%. NONE of this is accurate! Learn the truth from someone who's been there several times.
I am not here to sell you on going to the event, because it sure ain't for everyone! I simply wish to communicate what this thing actually is, as accurately as I can... for better or worse.
(And, no, my theories on how consciousness works will not be part of it.)
