Runs 6pm Friday to noon Sunday.
A chill-out dome and surrounding area made
by Alexei, Nori, and friends. DJs from the other stages will
play downtempo in this intentional space.
Open-Decks
Open-decks will run 1pm-7pm Friday and Saturday.
This year The Fort will be hosting the open-decks extravaganza,
so it’s a chance to play on a huge soundsystem outdoors!
Twelve one-hour slots are up for grabs. DJs that want to play
must enter their DJ name into a drawbox at The Fort prior
to 1pm Friday. The random draw will happen at 1pm on Friday
at which time the lucky DJs will be added to the schedule.
DJs that are already booked to play are not eligible to enter
the draw. The stage is equiped with professional CDJs, turntables,
and a mixer. Bring your own headphones and one hour of good
music!
Interactive
Dome
Make sounds and visuals in this surreal
geodesic dome. Motion sensors and touch
pads trigger the sounds and lighting real-time through two
computers. Big thanks to John Bichel and friends.
Felix (Germany)
An installation of exquisitely detailed psychedelic
backdrops by one of the world’s most active minds. His
deep understandings of the universe are brought to life through
massive story-like paintings that glow in
UV light! You may have seen some of his art at our New Year's
Eve party a few years ago at the Golf Dome in Calgary.
Workshops
All types of free daytime workshops
ranging from yoga and meditation to dj tricks and fire spinning
or hoola-hoop classes. Schedule will be posted at the Curve
Project chill-out dome.
Costume Contest
Wacky, wild, weird, or wicked- lets see what

to Motion Notion 2008.
