How to Join
Joining our village is an exciting journey for those passionate about art and engineering.
We call this process an “audition,” but this term only scratches the surface of what we seek. While artistic and engineering talent is valued, the maturity of the talent is much less important than the maturity of the applicant.
Though residents will be required to pay no rent or utility fees, they will be required to contribute time and effort towards keeping the village operational (six hours per week per resident). And whilst the village will be our home, we will also be stewards of something rather important… for one of the main goals of the village is to support independent artistic and engineering talent with a might that could rival the mainstream-rinse-and-repeat ‘woods of the world – to, at the very least, catalyze a new golden.
The decision of whether or not one is granted residency will be based primarily -though not entirely- on the results of this audition… not on one’s relationships, past successes or failures, education, ethnicity, gender, orientation, nationality, nor the depth of one’s pockets.
Interesting Questions
In light of all this, it was decided that the application procedure needs to be personal and unique… and accommodating to all types of applicants. So some may find it fun… like a personality quiz. Others might find it a bit tedious and/or random. Either way, your feedback is welcome in the discord server.
Learning about You
The audition is not intended to test knowledge, nor gauge talent… it is to be an exploration of who you are, how you feel about things, and what meaning certain things may have to you.
Understanding the Sanctuary
By auditioning to be a resident of this village, you understand that this sanctuary is being made for more than just its residents… that we will be sharing quite a bit of the wealth with as many people as we can… and that honesty, compassion, and cooperation will be utterly necessary for the village to run smoothly.
