THEME

Disorient Country Club 2022 Theme: ASTRODYNAMICA

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

ASTRODYNAMICA: branch of astronomy that studies the motion of natural and artificial bodies in space. For this theme we are exploring retrofuturist intermodulation, planispheres, objects of orbit, imagined mars colonization via 1960s mainframes, real and artificial moons, satellite dish mania, led and incandescent light, MASERS/LASERS, extra planetary survivalist built structures, programmer heroics, accelerationism, swarm technology, cross discipline dreaming.

OUR ART + YOUR ART

Disorient Country Club is an ephemeral dream that exists for one weekend only. Discover an ever growing and morphing participant-generated weekend of art, theme camps, art cars, art boats, and electronic and live music. Bring what you love! Join us with your creative output and share it in the beautiful tapestry woven wildly in our green forest hideaway.

“The Tenth”

As we celebrate Country Club's tenth anniversary, we get together and acknowledge our unity. Each of the ten overlapping octahedra not only represents a year of Country Club but symbolises all the souls that have been involved that respective year. All those years, all those participants are unified as one abstraction beyond words. The coalesced resulting octahedra represents this abstraction, this singularity.

“The Gathering of the Unlimited Devotion”

The Gathering of the Unlimited Devotion incorporates play as a pathway to the divine. Through the dust, a spinning object appears. It is round and resembles the nostalgic Sit ‘n Spin toy from the distant past. What you are meant to do is clear: grab ahold of the handle, and use it to pull yourself around. Giggle and laugh with us as you approach that blissful feeling from spinning!

“Star Gate”

During the summer we see the winter sky at night, the concept is to create one of the night visible constellations within the Star Gate with a shamanic journey activating the star portal of Fomalhaut - the star that represents the voice of humanity. It is like being inside an astrolabe. Sadamelik and Ancha Aquarius conjoin Enif of Pegasus, Fomalhaut of Piscis Australis, and Deneb of Cygnu. All are humanitarian and visionary stars. Aquarium, the humanitarian water bearer nourishes the body of humanity which is articulated by Pisces Australis and embodies the essence of human society. Fomalhaut of Piscis Australis is the fish's mouth into which the nourishing Aquarian waters flow, and through which humanity speaks. Therefore the star Fomalhaut represents the voice of humanity. People with prominent placement with Fomalhaut have a need to speak for humanity as a whole and about humanity's fundamental needs. They seek ways to sculpt an evolved universal human society, one free from segregation. These stories will be carved into the piece, swirling in with the punctured star-gazing portals incorporating the movements of the night sky to the stories within. Star Gate is an observatory, a space ship, that never leaves the ground.

Disorient is a volunteer-run art collective.

Check out this article from 2019 for a Disorient background and history.

Disorient has very few rules, but two require declaration and elaboration:

1. Respect personal boundaries.

2. Take responsibility for your own experience.

The interplay of these two rules forms a social contract that makes our events safe places to explore your own boundaries while encouraging respect for each other. Talk to those around you about anything that makes you uncomfortable.
