I met Nolan Bushnell during the live stream closing out the Wasteland 2 crowdfunding. It was hosted at Brian Fargo’s house and he invited a number of friends, including the founders of Blizzard to celebrate ending a $3 million Kickstarter campaign. The thing that I’ll always remember was how enthusiastic Bushnell was talking about Burning Man and urging… URGING Fargo to go to Burning Man. 😂 I met and talked to his son more actually, he talked about his project, Two Bit Circus, a traveling tech/indie entertainment carnival of homemade games and local DIY inventors. A really interesting evolution of his dad’s legacy and carrying the torch for electronic entertainment. That was 12 or so years ago so it may have evolved a bit since then. If you can find a Two Bit Circus event near you, check it out!
