2020 Kiez Burn Theme
Hi everyone!
Since location has now been decided. Let's open discussions around what our theme could be. It would be nice to throw around ideas and concepts in here until the of March and then do a vote. Also open to other ideas on how to choose a theme. Just following the process we had last year.

What about MYCELIUM ?
The underground network that connects and nurtures and supports symbiotically those around it. We celebrate the connections.

Lunartics
The full moon of June, also called the Strawberry Moon, will occur the morning of June 17 at 4:31 a.m. EDT (0831 GMT), just a day after making a close pass by Jupiter and a day before making another pass by Saturn.
Given the event dates of June 16 - 21 it seems like a great opportunity to reflect on the reasons why cultures historically gather based on the lunar calendar.

Here are some options from last year. I like the asylum and deep sea mysteries

I would love to see some more creative options that don't focus on how "unloud" we need to be haha

"Born in fire" - two basic ideas and some icing on the top:
One´s re-birth through self-expression, and fire (burn) as cleansing of the old, so the new could be born. Catharsis comes through water or fire. With the current ecological down-spiral and the weather last few weeks, the symbolism of water wouldn´t lift spirits so much and thereby serve the purpose.
Also, it could be also seen as a positive homage to Australia bush fires. Right around KB2020, the nature will start to recuperate in Australia! Last but not least, it makes the effigy shape quite self-evident. :)

How about "The Sound of Sympathy"?
That's in response to the sound issues we've experienced, our understanding of the neighbors feelings and our solutions for that, which will have a strong impact on the sound camps (and maybe others) this year, as well as a friendly reminder of being understanding and empathetic in (group) discussions. Also it can be seen as an inspirational topic to think about, like what exactly sympathy is and how we can embed it in our community etc.

Love the "Living our fantasy"!
I'd love the theme to be somewhat related to our response to the ecological collapse - maybe something as simple as "coming together", remembering the importance of tribes and rituals, of the resilience of community.
Not really a finished thought but maybe it resonates with someone?
