The moment has arrived... the first steps onto a dry, dusty landscape, the sun's rays are glistening bright and scorching hot. It is difficult to perceive silhouettes in the distance and yet the anticipation rises immeasurably. What is it that drives people to this abandoned land in the middle of the African desert? What makes them voluntarily expose themselves to the extremes of nature?
It is freedom. It is the connection. It is love. It is the unconditional being in a world far away from the conventional rules, the omnipresent pressure and the constant competition against others, against time, against oneself.
This is the place that gives you liberty, union and charity unconditionally to all and everyone who opens themselves to it. The very essence of the principles of "Radical Inclusion" (Anyone may be a part of. We welcome and respect thestrangers. No prerequisites exist for participation in our community.) and "Gifting" (devoted to acts of gift giving. The value of a gift is unconditional. Gifting does not contemplate a return or an exchange for something of equal value).
This magical place of gathering has gifted unconditionally over the years with an indescribable abundance, without ever seeking anything in return.
And perhaps that is why we, who love this magical place, can hear the silent call for help from afar…
Caring is the act of the heart to support others with of love. Care is what AfrikaBurn needs now to survive. Sustainability is the only thing that can ensure the survival of this cultural gathering. Without financial support, AfrikaBurn is in existential danger and timely gathering is harder to accomplish. Until the very last minute, the entire organisation is on the verge of collapse.
But what if we can solve it all together, in unity for and with AfrikaBurn?
Burner Claudiathebee has asked herself this question more than once ... until she came up with an idea, an opportunity that makes it possible to support AfrikaBurn and its community of artists at the same time, in our increasingly digitalized world. Her fundraising project offers a future oriented, creative, uniting and sustainable solution to the funding problem of AfrikaBurn. At the same time, it provides artists from all over the world with a platform that is progressive and expansive. Furthermore, it is a matter of concern for her and AfrikaBurn to stand up for people, animals and the environment – these aspects are also being supported by this fundraising project.
The «save the clan » project focuses on NFT (non fungible tokens), which is virtual art in digital form based on a crypto currency. But wait… crypto? Yes, and for those who think sustainability and crypto do not go together will be thrilled to learn about the first co2 neutral currency, NEAR!
