<!--SUSTAINABLE LIVING, EXPERIMENTAL ART-->
Dreamtime Village ![]()
IMPORTANT NOTICE! Our e-mail has changed!
Our new e-mail address is dtv@mwt.net...information concerning the becoming of Dreamtime Village, a rural experiment in combining the ancient technology of permaculture with the unlimited possibilties of hypermedia arts...
![]()
Dreamtime Village is emerging as an experiment in ecovillage design whose mission is to create new planetary culture. By consciously drawing from the more bio-diverse & imaginative resources of present-day & ancient cultures, we endlessly garden the complex interface between plant, animal & human worlds. We understand that each realm works under the same universal co-creative principles. Our challenge is to design a landscape where we can create art that is functional, alive, & fantasmagorical while simultaneously serving as an eco-village demonstration and a hands-on learning environment for people of all ages ( DREAMLAB). As cultural anarchists we delight in discovery, innovation & experimentation. We lean towards open-systems & self-organization, preferring to let the life of the eco-village incubate & grow as an organism in itself.
Dreamtime Village facilities consist of 80 acres of woods, wetlands, gardens & orchards within an 8-mile radius of the tiny town of West Lima, Wisconsin. Six older buildings include a 2-story former school on 3 acres with attached full-size gymnasium & quonset hut. This building houses a library, woodworking, drummaking & craft shop & large multi-purpose meeting room. Also in the works are a certified kitchen, ceramics studio & multi-media lab. These existing facilities & land serve as a hub for radiating circles of Dreamtime residents, kindred homesteaders & offshoot projects. Long-range plans include establishing a community land trust for stewardship of Dreamtime acreage & a food/shelter coop for village residents, interns and Dreamtime friends & visitors.
DREAMLAB stands for Driftless Re-learning Environment for Alternative Media, Living Arts & Biodiversity. A school-without-walls for students of all ages and backgrounds, DREAMLAB is dedicated to learning experiences not usually found in institutional settings, including information access, workshops, internships & a Summer Practicum in Sustainable Living.Dreamtime Village & DREAMLAB are projects of Xexoxial Endarchy, Ltd., a non-profit intermedia arts & education organization. You can help support these projects through tax-deductible sponsorship or subscription to our newsletter, Dreamtime Talkingmail.
