Circo de Poesia Secures A Location For Psychonauts 2007
Jul 8, 2006 
Would you believe it?
Sometimes, all the constellations line up, the numbers are all propitious and with little orchestrations to steer it all, some dreams do happen. Officially, Circo de PoesÃa has secured an incredibly beautiful venue for Psychonauts, a forest production that goes on for 24 hours for a crowd of up to 1,000 participants.
As if custom-made, the land is ripe with natural and beautiful settings that can be transformed to suit the needs of this massive event. Soon, an entire section will be published in this site where you’ll be able to find out all about this production: when to order your tickets, when to volunteer and which team to sign up with in order to help us turn this incredible ranch into an amazing circus villa.
There will be plenty of sections inside the Psychonauts page, please spend some time browsing and reading around. It is extremely necessary that you involve yourself and obtain a clear understanding of what Circo de Poesia is proposing here and what’s intended as the outcome of this ‘social re-engineering experiment’. Psychonauts is not a party, nor a rave.
Although some details are being still finalized, many others are somewhat clear: Psychonauts will take place in early June of 2007 in a nearby locality about 25 minutes north of LA.
A promotion and preview event is scheduled for the end of March or early April. The official event production launches in late January and at its peak it will involve about 100 volunteers, artists and crafstmen.
We’re still working out the details with the land owner to determine the availability of the land for our own pre-production and production purposes. In the next few weeks, all further details about this production will be posted directly under a section titled Psychonauts…
In the mean time, if you got the chance, get familiar with software called ‘news aggregators’ or blogging ‘news readers’. They work in a similar fashion to your Microsoft Outlook email program, except that instead of you receiving emails, you receive notifications of blog pages to which you have subscribed. Psychonauts and other production pages will be both a web page and a blog which will enable those of you using the above mentioned aggregators to be automatically informed and updated when we publish any changes to these blogs.
As you may have heard, Circo intends to continue with one or several yearly events as a source of revenue to maintain its year-round Academy and its official headquarters. In this academy, a custom-designed Circo curricula will be taught year round to kids, immigrants, low income students and many others who are interested. Also in this location, Circo will maintain a year-round presence in the city as it involves ever more people in both its academy and event productions.
Yes, LA is populated by thousands of beautiful and immensenly creative artists. The question is: what can all of them do if summoned to the same place all at once?
With Psychonauts, we’re trying to find out…
Stay tuned… more psycho-galactic noise soon to come…
