Hudzo is one Peter Hudson, an artist who's "available for large scale kinetic zoetrope art installation for events and festivals worldwide." This guy makes some seriously awe-inspiring sculptures...that move, light up, and trip your expectations.
After a two-year hiatus, San Francisco-based artist Peter Hudson returns to Burning Man 2011 and the forum of public art with his latest piece, Charon.

Not too late to join the other free-wheeling, whackadoo happy peoples in the Black Rock Desert this year. Trust us: it's an event like no other!
