Look Familiar???
It’s time for the Whole Earth Festival! Today’s photograph from the University Archives is of a very familiar structure to the Whole Earth Festival (WEF). This photograph taken during the setup for the 1980 WEF is of one of the domes to be used by the Karma Patrol. This year you can spot this same dome on the quad operating as a center for the Karma Patrol of today. Do any of these people look familar? Who were the planners and organizers of the 1980 WEF or of any of the decades past festivals? What aspects, structures and operations have changed since the inception of the Whole Earth Festival? We welcome your comments and thoughts.
