Burn2 Events in 2025

Conception: Theme Vote

Burn2 Conception

Coming July 25-27, 2025

Burn2's Conception event celebrates our origins as a presence and virtual regional of Burning Man in SL.

Teams are forming for Conception already!

We collected the themes listed below from YOU, the community.

Now we ask each of YOU, the community, to vote for your two favourites of the themes listed below. The event team will make the final theme selection for the event.

Here are the themes and brief descriptions for each:

Art Nouveau (natural curves with a touch of solar punk, elfish) in contrast with Art Deco (industrial lines with a touch of diesel punk, dwarfish). Almost a mirror of Burning Man's contrast between art cars and fire art with it's leave no trace respect for nature. If the builders want to focus on Nouveau or Deco, we might divide the playa in Nouveau and Deco parts, with a middle zone for the synthesis of the two.

At Burn2, the Circus of Fire and Fun captivates attendees with mesmerizing performances, vibrant art installations, and a lively atmosphere that celebrates creativity and community. Amidst an array of acrobats, fire dancers, and interactive exhibits, participants are encouraged to embrace their inner child, engage with artistic expressions, and experience the transformative power of art in a unique, immersive environment. This whimsical celebration is a quintessential part of the Burn2 spirit, merging creativity and connection under the vast digital sky.

What is home?
Home isn't always where we started out, or even where we spent most of our lives. Home is not limited to a place- home can be many things- a community, a feeling- an experience. What things say HOME to you? Let's fill the playa with our homes.

An idea sparks, the brain begins to fire, and a picture starts to form.
In a virtual world, everything is conceived and formed within the mind. A project is pulled together from many threads,and woven into a story for others to partake in.
In a world of ones and zeros, the formation of a plan can take many paths, some straight and some twisting and turning like the lines on a circuit board. When thoughts coalesce and people pull together, something magical happens, a place comes into being that individuals all over the world can enter and share experiences with.
In a way each of those that enter have done so walking along the inner workings of the computers, following the tiny lines from one component to another, processing what they see as they go until finally they find themselves in the same gathering place, sharing their experiences.

When things get challenging one way to lighten the mood is to find a way to joke and laugh about the situation. Puns are part of that, also riddles, illusions and pranks.

Look around - the world is not what it may seem. Find the unusual and absurd and embrace it. Remember the cacophonist. Follow the moony. All signs should be free!

Conception is already about the process of where we make serious plans on how to get to the burn and finish our projects. Everything starts with an idea but to make it happen some assembly is required.

This theme itself may sound half baked and it is literally. It’s a celebration of works in progress and instructions to live by. Our builds should not seem finished or highlight and celebrate the creative process in so many ways. We usually are building this on the fly and this time we’ll just show it.
