Urban Plan Folds

This year, Disorient is organizing camp into eight Folds.

A fold is not a border or a wall. It is a way of gathering. A way of creating smaller zones of care, responsibility, participation, and connection within the larger organism of camp.

Each Fold contains a portion of our shared city. Every camper belongs to a Fold. During build, event week, and strike, Folds help us coordinate communication, support one another, and distribute the work that keeps Disorient alive.

The word “fold” carries many meanings:
a sheepfold is a communal enclosure;
to be “within the fold” is to belong;
a fold in space creates distinction without separation.

That spirit feels right for Disorient.

The Folds are not isolated from one another. They are connected parts of the same living structure — different regions of one continuous surface.

Each Fold will have a Fold Keeper helping coordinate logistics, communication, and cleanup efforts throughout the week.

Know your Fold.
Care for your Fold.
Support neighboring Folds.
Leave no trace beyond the Fold.
