A few weeks ago we began working on refreshing the Principles and we started with Immediacy. With only 72 days till Paddock time and 75 days till the Effigy burns, it’s time to take a look at the next Principle, Participation.
Kiwiburn is unlike other events. There are no main stages, no paid artists, no market stalls, and there is nowhere to buy beer, coffee, or food (Decommodification, yo). Kiwiburn is created by us, the participants, for us. Participation means contributing and being fully immersed in the experience, rather than just being an attendee. This could be in the form of a Theme Camp, Paddock Art, signing up for a volunteer shift, or simply lending a helping hand to someone in need. Take a gander at this blog on Participation – it may help spark some ideas on ways you can participate.
The countdown is on! Let’s find where you fit in!
