About Multiverse


About (the) Multiverse

You’ve continued, I see, very well. Let us explain the origin of some of the core members of this barrio and what they went on and did at Nowhere and help you understand what you might be diving into!

Multiverse is a barrio or themecamp, with a passion for music, arts and creating new worlds.

We are active since 2019, you can find us at two regional burns, Nowhere in Spain and have also a little presence on Where The Sheep Sleep in The Netherlands

What we morphed into at Nowhere

We will be focused mainly on getting the party started and keeping it going as long as we’re allowed and we will do so in a space that is transformed every night by the beautiful visual projections all over our shade structures, topped off with intriguing art and even an enormous kaleidoscope to play with! The music we play varies from a wide variety in electronic music, to appreciation hours of all sorts (Tarentino appreciation hour was a big hit last year) to contemporary classical music in the afternoon. We love to experiment with music of all sorts!

We also want to focus on performances and some workshops during the day and have created the conditions to do so. Check out Multiverse Creations to dive a little deeper in this subject and get some insight on what we’ve been able to create in the past years.

Next to our dancefloor we’re also creating multiple chill out areas, like the Tutterdome where you will be able to play dress up with your friends. With a dressing table with a mirror to do your make-up and hair, accessories and outfits that are yours to borrow and enough space to drink your cocktail while waiting for your friend to finally decide which outfit they’ll wear.

We’ll have our breakfast, lunch and dinner in our communal chillout/dining area, sitting at a proper table you’ll want to stay and have a few beers at with your barrio buddies afterwards.

For your drinks; cocktails, beers, soda’s etc. you’ll have the bar. This will also be the place you can hand out signature cocktails from, to the nobodies that are having a dance in our area. If they complete the designated assignment or answer your riddle, obviously.

Origin

The MultiVerse originated from a group of humans that have a history of throwing big parties in weird places with smiling ravers. We love anything from repetitive electronic music to all types of music that give you the chills and probably make you throw your hands in the air with a funny (bass)face and high five your neighbor on the dance floor.

Our daytime activities involve hosting workshops, acts, and performances, while at night, we transform into a mesmerizing dance floor. Although we identify as a sound camp, we also value the arts! We have a lot of wacky creatures running around in this MultiVerse and they have some pretty funky ideas. Are they all realistic? Probably not.. Do we try anyway? Of Course! Anything goes here and if you have an idea we’ll probably try our best to make it work. Failure is an option, it’s fun to try anyway right? If you want to merge your wildest dreams with our analogue visual projections going across the entire MultiVerse or dance in front of our bigger than human kaleidoscope for an extra special performance, we welcome you new friend!

What to expect at Multiverse camp


All this funky madness got you interested in joining? Hooray! It might be good to know what we’ll expect of you?
As per the decree of Nowhere, thou shalt participate!
We as a barrio will create this experience together.

Joining hands in this really makes your barrio experience complete and will strengthen the bonds you build with your fellow barrio members.

Shifts!

We will have a schedule of all the different tasks that need to be done per day, on which you can register as a volunteer in advance.

This can be helping out in the kitchen, or turning the party from behind the bar.

The morning after: Making sure the trash is separated as per LNT and taking it in with the cart to Warzone (usually a very fun activity to do with some buddies, especially when you’re slightly less sober).

Build & Strike!

We want to make sure we have a designated group of people that are motivated to help with the build and strike of all of our constructions.

We will have a clear plan and instructions ready.

Attitude

We are inclusive and would like anyone and everyone to feel very welcome in our group, this means all genders, all races, all ages, all levels of burn experience, all levels of openness in sexuality etc.

You are free and welcome to come as you are and expect respect from everyone of your fellow barrio members.

What we do not do however, is constantly promote or police certain behaviors, attitudes or opinions. We trust that everyone in this barrio will be able to get along, joke with each other, whilst staying kind and respectful.






All the other questions and answers

As a barrio we take care of


Water


We arrange water, per cubic meter in an IBC container. This water is used for washing, showers & in the kitchen. And we arrange (cold) drinking water.
Showers


We have 2 showers, so everyone can clean themselves every day. Experience shows that taking a cold shower at 40 degrees in the desert is an incredibly pleasant experience ... so this may not seem like a luxury in advance ... but this is uber luxury.
Food


We deliver 3 meals a day with our kitchen team. Because you need a lot of energy in the desert to function properly, these are sophisticated power meals.

These will be plant based meals (so yeah we cook vegan), which is idealistic but also practical because everyone can join the meal. But carnivores fear not! We have more than excellent meals! There will also be snacks and it is taken into account that if you have missed a meal you can still eat.

We can take food allergies into account, but it is important that we know as soon as possible.
Kitchen


We will bring a fully equipped kitchen, with refrigerators and freezers. Everyone will have to perform a number of tasks during the week, and many people will work in the kitchen as a result. The kitchen will be a largely self-running system, with the kitchen leads primarily serving as a source of information.
Drinks


We take care of all your drinks, as mentioned before, the drinking water. In the morning coffee, tea and, if desired, plant-based milk. We will also provide ice-cold drinks, soft drinks, beer, wine, non-alcoholic beer and the occasional cocktail.
Shade


We have a number of shade structures to cover our chill out, bar, diner and dance areas. The dancefloor will be mainly covered with a Camel Manufacturing Solar Shade System. An additional advantage of this shade system is that we can project on it with overhead projectors, liquid slides and other psychedelic effects.
Sleepcamp


Our sleepcamp will be situated in the camping area in the red zone. This area is located at the edge of Nowhere which will make sure we’re not in too much of a chaotic soundscape situation. It’s not a quiet area, so we do recommend bringing earplugs. You are also always free to camp in the quiet area, but it is of course cozier in our sleeping camp.

We will do our best to provide a common area where we can set up camp together. For the people coming in later, we can’t guarantee this completely, since everyone is free to set up camp where they want.
Electricity


At Nowhere, electricity is generated by a number of large barrios with large aggregates. As in 2019 & 2022, we have made a request whether we can purchase a number of groups there for the kitchen equipment and the sound. Because we greatly appreciate our light freaks and their projections, we use smaller generators at night to ensure that electricity does not hinder our creative excess.
At what price? Some Dirty Cash!


Ok money remains a difficult story, especially in times of inflation.
To give everyone the opportunity to be part of barrio Multiverse, we have a capacity model.
So if you are not affected by the economic crisis and have a good job, it would be nice if you could pay 275 for the whole week.... if you have less to spend, you can also go for a low-income variant, 195 euros for the whole week.
If that is a lot for your budget to pay it in one go, it is possible to pay in parts..

To be clear.
This is all inclusive, cold drinks, shower, snacks 3 meals a day, electricity shade..the whole shabang.
In addition to the costs for food and drinks, we also have expenses for the transport of items from the Netherlands to Spain, the storage of the containers, generator costs and the purchase of items.
