YOU WANT TO KNOW - WHAT IS APOKILIPTIKA?

 

Text Box:     It's the End of the World as we know it. Our camp is classic cold war Soviet theme!  We bring you back to the good old days of duck and cover, air raid warnings, jack boots and 3 am knocks on the door.  The look of the camp is distinctive, with a kind of gulagish military compound feel.  We stress theme costuming too.  We are a very themey theme camp. APOKILIPTIKA is primarily a collection of friends who enjoy doing things, making things and sharing things we make and do with others.  We are friends from all over the U.S. and many places around the world.  Members have included visual artists, poets, musicians, contraptionists, theater and performing artists, technicians, mechanics and more. We have collaborated on many projects, events and activities over the years.  We have many skills and capabilities.  We have no particular rules. We do very strange things and make very strange things.  APOKILIPTIKA is a theme camp that has been a part of Burning Man since 2005. APOKILIPTIKA is part of a BM Village called "Terminal City".  This village officially registered at BM in 2008, and has consisted of up to eight connected theme camps. We are always looking for new people to share ideas with and to collaborate with on art projects and events. BUT WARNING!!!! We do not take in "campers".  We take in DOERS.  If you are not anxious to jump into the theme and participate, find another place to camp.    If
