Our goal is to create a collaborative container to share visions and solutions remembered from the future. We will have so many experiences that will be nothing short of spectacular.
Most of the magic of the UP Game will remain secret until you experience it… But to give you a taste for what is in store…
Time Day
On the opening day we step outside of time and into our best selves. Time Day is our place to meet as teams and begin to design our week together.
We create an opening ceremony that is a symbolic death of the conditioned self and to step into an era of infinite possibility together.
Water Day
Water Day is a celebration of the rise of communities and the commons. Anticipate feeling a new sense of community, belonging and shared purpose.
Typically Water Day is spent sailing together followed by a celebration of community and belonging.
Fire Day
Fire Day is a celebration of the transformation conscious culture on society and the economy. Anticipate a powerful journey of reflection and integration into the new.
Air Day
Air Day is a celebration of all life unleashing our fullest potential. Anticipate an immersive journey into transformative health and wellness practices.
Earth Day
Earth day celebrates Planetary Thriving and our relationship and union with Gaia. Anticipate a variety of activations and ceremonies that will leave us inspired, hopeful and deeply connected with nature.
Aether Day
Aether Day is the grand crescendo. We bring all our stories together into a unifying narrative that only we can tell - Our Gaian Tradition. Anticipate feeling Communitas (oneness), Catharsis (healing) and Ecstacis (rapture).
JoJoin us to create the United Planet together.
This gathering is an experiment in co-creation, trust, vision and belonging. There is no organising team as such behind this but rather a real time co-creation of magic by us for the planet.
Teams will be supported with ongoing collaboration infrastructure to continue to realise their visions and invite others to participate. Our goal is to kick off an ongoing effort to reimagine our world and reverse engineer the future we wish to see. All Gaian Players have the opportunity to be rewarded for their contributions in the United Planet DAO.
We intend to co-create:
Life-long Friendships
‘Communitas’ is the feeling of oneness in our common-unity. We seek to come together as Gaians around our best stories.
Collective Transformation
We will explore the healing of collective conditioning, trauma and how we transformed with the Golden Age.
Harmonic Flow
We feel synchronised ‘Ecstasis’ when we meet with open hearts, love and commitment to tell the best story of ourselves.
Radical Hope
The future should not be predicted but achieved. We are here to architect and reverse engineer positive futures in a non-incremental way.
Unifying Stories
Our artifact is a response to the crisis of meaning by crafting a new story of a thriving civilisation in harmony with all life.
Food & Drinks
The dining table is the best collective intelligence technology we have. The culinary experience for the week is going to be something to remember.
The food for the UP Game has been carefully curated for you to experience the power of clean, organic (where possible), local, seasonal ingredients in order to understand after 6 days the effects in your body.
All meals from Sunday until Saturday will be included in the participation contribution.
You are also invited to contribute any magic you wish to share as your expression of love and communion around our meal times.

We will learn from each other and weave a collective narrative. Our artifact will be a unique narrative and pathways for our individual and planetary thriving.
We recognise this moment in time is one of the most unique opportunities humanity has ever had. Right in the middle of an age of transition between eras. We are exploring what can be collectively birthed when we bring our hearts and dharma together for a week of immersing into a thriving future. Each team will be responsible for creating a day of immersive experiences around the teams vision for a thriving future.
Dress
We welcome you to come as your future self in celebration for everything our planet has accomplished. You’re encouraged to theme your choice of dress around the elements each day if you wish.
We ask that as much as possible you immerse yourself into this unique opportunity of a lifetime to live together in the future. Outside commitments and calls can be made but we recommend to keep your schedule open.

Teams
Each team is themed around the element and creates a mythology of stories through 4 hours of immersive experiences. Each team has up to 12 people on it - ideally half male, half female with as much diversity as possible. We hope teams will express their collective vision throughout the day in as many creative ways they design.
