What Is Nowhere? A name? A place? A state of mind? Or just nothing - a place to interact and create something?
The objective of Nowhere is to create an experience, a place with no preconceptions, no added baggage, a place with no strings - a place where you can create something from nothing.
It may sound a bit contrived, but with the trappings of modern day life, how often do you get a chance to leave the safty of everyday life and seek creative inspiration from a location that is hostile and harsh? Nowhere presents this opportunity and more... It is a clean slate, an artistic space where people collaborate with other like-minded people to create...
Don't be confused. No! You're not lost, you've just taken the first step to Nowhere...
Nowhere is still in its formative years and going through a process similar to the early years of
BurningMan. It is not a huge city, but we are growing. This year, while bigger than the first two Nowhere events, will still have a bit of a "frontier campout" quality. Remember that the entire event will be created by the 200 people who decide to get involved. Some things will be easier than last year but we will undoubtably encounter some unforeseen challenges. This is part of the process...
In five years time the event will be a different experience; bigger and easier with a greater variety of camps. The close, communal pioneering quality which exists now will fade. This is your chance to get involved at the start of a radical experiment!
Concept
- To create an event based on the principles of the BurningMan festival e.g. LeaveNoTrace, RadicalSelfReliance, NoSpectators, Gifting etc.
- Provide an inspirational environment where people can express themselves creatively (individualy or as a group).
- Encourage self-reliance and responsible actions.
- Provide opportunities for creative participation.
- TheMan ? ClockTower will burn...
