Join Disorient for year 11 of our annual journey of deep chilling, off-the-grid futurist relaxation. Country Club is a lake and lush green woodland oasis where blissful self-reliance meets massive multiplayer techno and technology participation. We invite you to roam the wild forest adventuring in constantly shifting blank canvas of music, art, and performance. Country Club is a fundraiser organized by an all volunteer team. All profits are used for Disorient art creations at Burning Man.
We know our annual journey of deep chilling, off-the-grid futurist relaxation is amorphous and can leave the uninitiated more questions than answers. Details, forms, links, FAQ and more at https://countryclub.disorient.info

Disorient is a volunteer run art collective.
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.
