Wild And Unlikely Theme Guesses

Caravansary - This year we will create a caravansary that occupies the crossroads of a dreamland: a bazaar of the bizarre wherein treasures of every sort, from every land and age, flow in and out to be flaunted, lost, exploited and discovered. This is not a tourist destination, but a home for travelers who come here bearing gifts. Amid the twisting and the turnings of its souk, participants will come upon an inexhaustible array of teeming goods and unexpected services. Anyone may pose as 'merchant' here, and anyone may play a 'customer', but nothing in this strange emporium shall have a purchase price — no quid, no pro, no quo — no trade at all will be allowed in this ambiguous arcade. According to a rule of desert hospitality, the only thing of value in this 'marketplace' will be one's interaction with a fellow human being.

Random thought of my day: Around Labor Day 2014, the planet Neptune will be making its closest approach to the Earth at a point directly opposite to the Sun in the sky – an event termed opposition. (I did not write this http://www.seasky.org/astronomy/astrono ... -2014.html)

In honor of Neptune, it could be cool to have theme that's Nautical, Aquatic, Maritime, Fluidity, or something relating to waters or the Sea. I think it'd be a fun juxtaposition to have an Aquatic them in the dry dusty desert, people could take it in a lot of directions...sea creatures are already popular art cars, mermaids? Greek gods? Dead sexy Pirates? Scurvy?
