Everdark Mission

Crew Dogma

I envision UNS33LIE to be larger than just one event and more like a series of loosely-affiated DIY events and extended community. I want to kick this off with a solid foundation of values:

  • Inclusive

    • Transparent

    • How does one participate in UNS33LIE planning? Do you just ask? Or you have to be friends with the right people or is there an idea of “membership” like with a co-op?

    • How are decisions made? Consensus vs Violet having the final word?

    • How do we allocate a finite amount of booking timeslots to a virtually unlimited pool of potential performers? How do we do this kindly and transparently in a way that empowers newer artists?

  • Accessible and safe

    • NOTAFLOF

    • Harm reduction

    • Consent culture and abusers

    • Disability / immunocompromised care

    • Anti-racism anti-queerphobia anti-bigotry in all forms

  • Fun, effective and good

    • Build a reputation for good shows and community

    • Financially support artists

    • Heal attendees in body and in mind through movement/ mindfulness/ music

    • Provide a path from audience member → participant → community member → co-organizer → performer

    • Invite DIY engagement and encourage people to organize their own events

  • Modular and self-sufficient

    • Artists take care of themselves and their team

    • Take only pictures and leave only smoke
