"Those Always Pesky Few Rules we All Must Abide By"

*Gates open at NOON on Friday & must leave property by 10pm Sunday

*ABSOLUTELY NO GLASS BOTTLES or PETS (INCLUDING DOGS) Respect the land owner's 4 year old barefoot daughter, and her future romps in these woods. We take this very seriously. The same goes for animals, arrange some care for them and bring yourself.

*PROPANE STOVES ONLY!!! You must have a bucket of water with you when cooking (TOWN LAW)

*NO SWIMMING IN POND

*LEAVE POSITIVE TRACE - carry in, carry out- Be responsible for your trash. Leave the property more beautiful than you found it.

*BRING YOUR OWN REUSABLE CUPS, PLATES, UTENSILS- To minimize waste

*COME PREPARED. Bring your own water and food. 3-Season camping gear and clothing highly recommended.

The Concept:

Communication is the backbone of our effort to move forward as a culture. Decades of technological advances have made correspondence faster, more convenient and more accessible, but not necessarily more effective. Because of the differences we place between ourselves and the borders we create, important matters still get lost in translation.

The idea of a Universal Language is not a new one, but is now more relevant than ever. The matters before us are ever daunting, increasingly intricate, and relentless in numbers. A common ground is as sought after now as the fountain of youth and holy grail of old.

We have found means of communication which transcend the utility of words: a shared smile on the dancefloor, a bold performance which reveals the artist's raw emotion, an interactive installation that has the power to alter a pattern of thought. The power of creativity and expression as a communication vessel is being uncovered as a viable solution to our societal gridlock.

How will you choose to express yourself? What will you create? You have the power to make a significant impact on the world...what will you do with this knowledge?

The Intent:

Our intention as a Tribe is to provide you with an experience from which you can take inspiration and knowledge back into your everyday lives and create a better world for yourself and those around you.

THE TRIBE:

Some of the non DJ Fractal Crew, without whom this entire festival would not be possible.
