Creative Economy Launch
Friends,
An ambitious project is underway. Ten years in the making. Set to 'jump start' the Creative Economy, or so the visionary force behind this project states. Ambitious? Definitely! "Big" is an understatement. The world will be made again. In fact, it has already been rebuilt many times before. A concept of continuous renewal... A ripple in the collective consciousness, from our own future, travelling back to meet us in the present... On September 2nd, time slows down (the man burns). On September 3rd, time stands still (the spaceship lands).
Burning Man 2006. The Future - our fears, our hopes.
Been holding out for the 'biggest' thing yet it seems...
Uchronia* - Message Out Of The Future is a massive installation. A spaceship from times to come is set to deliver a message to the 'present'. Come visit with us and have a nice chit-chat with (y)our future selves why don't you. We will feature an interactive communal music making experience. It's basic makeup is a plug 'n play open-interface concept; a communal interactive sonic experiment if you will. The idea here is to create a soundtrack on location which will be used in a documentary on the making of our project and the idea(s) it intends to spread out into the main-stream. A docu DVD/book combination featuring all participants will be sent to all corners of the globe free of charge. Everything will be produced on location at this year's Burning Man. Music will be the undercurrent of our 'experiment', think rockin' tech-house-psy-breaks DJ sets and much much more.
This is an open call to all percussionists in attendance. We need you!
Bring your drums and let's rumble.
Hope to see you "out there" !!
Many blessings,
d.

* Uchronia refers to a hypothetical time period of our world, in contrast to fictional lands or worlds. A concept similar to alternate history but different in the manner that uchronic times are not easily defined (mainly placed in some distant point near prehistory), reminiscent of a 'Conworld'.
The word is a portmanteau of the word utopia (Greek u-topos not-land), replacing topos with chronos (time).
