Created by Fugazi drummer Brendan Canty and filmmaker Christoph Green, Burn to Shine is a DVD series of live music events shot in buildings that are going to be destroyed. Bands from the area are chosen by a local curator, set up in the doomed building for one day and each perform one song for the cameras alone. By the time you see the footage the structure no longer exists.
