An interesting or unusual object/installation at a burn (or similar gathering) designed to distract, engage, and often inspire wonder in participants for a short/medium amount of time. (Especially relevant when the hippie trap distracts the participant from whatever they were doing and becomes the object of their full attention) Examples include, but are not limited to: interactive play-forms, interesting lights, unusual textures, uniquely decorated spaces, large flow toys, etc.
