Burning Café Extended goes on a Retarded Journey

Dear burners in Vienna,

it's time to meet again to DANCE! Welcome to the Summer Edition of Burning Café Extended.

This time, it is going to be more – if YOU make it more! Burning Café Extended is... a Burning Café with DJs, dance, gifts, marvels, costumes and fun… that is, everything YOU are willing to make of it. We provide the dancefloor, we provide some music and a bar – the rest is up to you.

This time we will meet again at the Retarded Journey Headquaters – a wonderful location that reminds us of a camp on the playa! There is a stage, a bar, a roof, some couches, lots of space in between and a bonfire as well. Everything is outdoors, there are lots of possibilities to co-create!

The dress code is as always: radical selfexpression! What that stands for is defined by YOU. So come as what makes you feel your best

This event is created by US! There are many ways how you can help to make this event happen. As the event is public and free, we won’t have a Gate. Nonetheless, we are looking for volunteers to help us with preparing and running the event. Please see the last newsletter for details: https://mailchi.mp/.../burning-cafe-extended-jun11-timetable

WORKSHOPS & HAPPENINGS

"We offer Natural henna tattoos, either a bad one by Shay or a good one by Joy. The choice is yours!"

18:30 - 19:30 - Workshop: Circling

"Circling is an interpersonal activity about connecting to others and their experience. Circling is sometimes described as a kind of interpersonal meditation, where the focus space is relationships and social interactions, rather than body sensations. See: https://tasshin.com/blog/what-is-circling/"

19:00 - 19:15 - Workshop: Upcycling - Make purses out of tetra packs

"Upcycling - Seemingly useless waste products are converted into new materials with the help of upcycling. Unlike recycling or downcycling, upcycling involves upgrading the material. And at the same time it can be fun! Anyone who would like to make a casual purse out of Tetrapack is cordially invited to take part."

We will need some fuel for all the fun! We will create a corner for food to gift and share! To radically include everyone, try to bring something vegan.

NO PHOTO POLICY

To allow everyone to express themselves radically and to feel at ease at all times, this year we will have a No Photo Policy. Please keep this in mind and remind other guests when needed. We might have an official photographer wearing a batch taking pictures of art and decoration (with no people on it).
