Country Club

Started in 2011, Disorient Country Club is deep chilling with Disorient.
Everyone's welcome during a few days and nights of off-the-grid relaxation where blissful self-reliance meets massive multiplayer participation. It’s a blank canvas for music, art and performance, where every host is our guest, and every guest is our host. Create your own art and interactivity and join the Club!
On the last night we burn a version, different each time, of Geodesic Temple. We add one octahedron every year: in 2011 we started with 1 octahedron, in 2012 we burned 2, etc.
Country Club is pure Pornj.

In 2022 we created the Disorient Country Club Committee to oversee the organization and production of Country Club.

ART ADVENTURES

UPDATED WEEKLY TILL EVENT

Alien Space Flaire.
“Project yourself into the forest”

Three point five magical Pornj sprites popup to capture your Glamtech awesomeness. Find yourself in the forest thereafter.

Everything Good Studio
“Small Hadron Collider”
An interactive light art installation that lets you launch particles of light and watch them collide.

Geodesic Temple
“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.

Inexplicable Bacon (IxB)
”Bevy”
Swans! That's it, just swans; in the lake; sometimes arbitrarily around the grounds. Not live animals, of course! Large inflated pool floats fashioned to resemble the quintessential white swan.

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!

Lillian Lamping
“Aphrodite”
A short gift styled film that is homage to the goddess Aphrodite

Sofy Yuditskaya + Jana Astanov
“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.

Blood Pheasant
“Beeps and Tweets”
A curious collection of sounds designed to make the listener feel differently about their surroundings.

Talk to those around you about anything that makes you uncomfortable.

POSTPONED TO 2022

POSTPONEMENT NOTICE

To our friends, family, confidantes, fellow lovers and dreamers, from the Country Club X Team,

Due to intergalactic events that are currently causing chaos, disarray, pandemonium, and a general brouhaha from alpha centauri all the way to the crab nebula; we are again forced to delay departure of spaceship Astrodynamica until more suitable conditions prevail.

That is to say, we need to push Country Club to a safer date in 2021.

For many of us, this is a place where we meet friends that we only see a handful of times a year, feed parts of our souls that do not have many other outlets, and expand our worlds by sharing experiences with those with whom we would otherwise not be granted company. We miss all of you, and we hope you are finding ways to stay connected despite the situation. These times are difficult, but it can be made better when we move through these times together.

So here we are, moving our date to spring of 2021, and we are really, _really_ looking forward to seeing you there: so long as we don't get invaded by bugbears or extragalactic extremists or whatever else the multiverse decides to up the ante with. Frankly, we would find very little surprising. Our spirits are high for a successful launch when conditions clear.

Your tickets are still good for our postponed date, Thursday May 27th, 2021 through Monday May 31st 2021. We can’t wait to see you at the gate and enjoy our forest escape together. As always, refunds are available to those requesting via Eventbrite.

While we continue this long strange trip to our launch date, Disorient has a few ways to come chill with us. We will be gathering in the Multiverse at Virtual Black Rock City 2020, as well as some online happenings. Keep an eye on our FB pages for information on how to join Disorient presents: SO GOOD, our online portal to the Disorient experience.

In the meantime, as we inch closer, we will be keeping you all informed on how our planning is going, volunteer, theme camp and art forms will remain open.
Stay safe out there,

The Country Club X Team

OPEN LOOP - Open Loop is a piece for voice and electronics to mark the transition from day to night. Structured as a call-and-response, the audience is invited to board the barge and sing a traditional Bulgarian folk song with other participating artists from the center of the lake. The text of this piece, Polegnala E Todora by Filip Koutev, describes a scene wherein a woman falls asleep under an olive tree and is woken when a branch falls and hits her head. She had been dreaming of being in love. Sound from this performance is used as base material for digital manipulation and played back in bursts as an installation that sonically recalls a dream-like state. Emanating from two locations situated on either side of the lake, the sounds continue to evolve throughout the night until dawn. Artist - Jen Kutler

4’x4’ Artist- Leo Villareal

LIZARD LOUNGE -Return of the Lizard Lounge There is a clearing beyond the warehouses of Brooklyn. It is a clearing as vast as a loft and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between beats and beers, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Lizard Lounge.

THE TEMPLE OF DREAMS When we were born, we were perfect. Untouched. As close to our true, natural state as we’ve ever been. Inevitably as time passed by our experiences and environment have clouded this perfection. Have shaped our beliefs and therefore who we identify with today. But what if we were to strategically restructure the world around us? What if we were to better curate the experiences we invited into our lives? Would we be able to become the people we want to be? Would we be able to be the architects of our dreams? Artist- Tim Shilstone

Details

Volunteer to help us make the magic that is the Country Club experience. Sign up to volunteer here: https://goo.gl/lY5N45

We are also looking for certified medical professionals, first aid, lifeguards, etc. If you are certified and would like to volunteer your time, please fill out the volunteer form above and let us know!

There is no vending at Country Club, and no vending is allowed. Bring everything you need for survival and well-being including shade, food and water.

You may bring your pets but please be mindful of them, as there are coyotes in the area. Most of the camping site is in the woods.

Country Club is not RV friendly. If you have made plans to bring an RV to Country Club you must contact us directly at countryclub@disorient.info

This is a LEAVE NO TRACE event. This means, leave the place you visit the same or better than you found it. Bring trash bags, and take your trash with you when you leave.

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.

SITE MAP

Urban Plan and Shade

1. Lizard Lounge (dancefloor showed in no rain config - 6x 10x10 tarps)
2. North Camp
3. Douggie's (dancefloor showed in rain config - 9x 10x10 tarps)
4. Projection on house
5. Projection on house
6. Center Camp with GeoTem effigy
7. Gate
8. Car park
9. Lake

Shade components needed:
- 15x 1" Flat roof Center (F5)
- 66x 1" Flat roof Center (F4)
- 60x 1" Flat roof Center (F3)
Note: F5 can be used in place of F4 and F3. F4 can be used in place of F3. As an example, we don't need to order any F3 if we already have 75x F5.
- 63x 10'x10' orange tarps (We can also use 10'x20', 20'x20', etc. Large tarps protect better from rain and their influence on bird's eye effect is negligible)
- 70x 16' long guy lines. 100' ropes from Home Depot work well for this. We can get 6x 16' out of 100' so we will need 12 of those. We need to tape both ends of each 16' segment so they don't fray. 2" tape works well for that. The tape needs to be as tight as possible and wrap around the rope at least 3 times.
- 50x 18+" stakes.
