Glory Whole

The camp Glory Whole’s intention is to give this chance to the burning man community to experience the world, and interact with one another in a unique and novel fashion.

By limiting visual senses of participants, Glory Whole experience causes mind to start exploring the world in a different way. Our brain creates a version of reality as it pleases. So many of participants in Glory Whole mention the interactivity is an unknown, and meanwhile stimulating journey through stimulation of all sensory feeling.

Gymnasium

We want to recreate the atmosphere of the gymnasium in its original, Ancient Greek meaning, as a facility for training and competition in public games, as well as a place for socializing and engaging in intellectual pursuits. The term originates from the word [gymnós] meaning “naked”, because historically in Ancient Greece one exercised naked, and we would like to revive this aspect too, as we think that by doing athletic and fun activities naked, participants will experience bonding aspect of such events stronger.
