Synergy is a magical indoor festival, combining musicians, Djs, Vjs, performers, and artists from all corners of creativity, joined by various proactive NGO’s and charities with the expressed aim to make a difference.
Synergy strives to create an optimistic approach in raising awareness on the many crucial issues affecting our world today. The events gather some of the UK’s leading creative multimedia organizations joined by international NGO’s such as Oxfam, Survival, Speak, WWF, Greenpeace, Arc, Campaign Against Climate Change and many more.
In a society which generally perceives clubbing as a form of escapism associated with values of transgression, Synergy re-invents the clubbing experience by transforming it into an ‘educational’, awareness raising tool. Although Synergy has a vibrant cross-generational and multi cultural following it aims to target primarily today’s youth with its inspiring message, an audience that might otherwise be reluctant to receive, respect, and incorporate such information, in particular when proposed by conventional sources.
Now in its 5th year running and with a wealth of experience and depth the Synergy Project continues to inspire people from all walks of life to re-evaluate their views on club culture and beyond…
This new event will host an incredibly varied mix of different elements, from the far eastern cultures to the now and here art of electronica…
In the main room…
Free-Spirit Records Room
Free-Spirit was born in 2004, under the vision of a network of like-minded artists in the psy-trance and ambient genres, all working to promote themselves and each other under one banner. With the ever massive support from the Implosion and Fairy Tales super funky crews, Free-Spirit will showcase some of their most talented musicians and DJs, melting the dance floor from within with their pumping sound and irresistible vibe. Enhancing the psychedelic experience, visual maestro’s Psytwin, ClubTek Lasers and Freakadelic decors will provide a feast of visual drops to ensure all your senses will be kept entertained.

In the Blue Room…
Oxjam
First-time hosts of the Synergy ambient space, Oxjam, will be presenting a stellar line up of top live dub acts and DJs. Visual stimulation amidst this dub-fuelled sonic delight will be generated by Inside Us All and their legendary VJs, while décor comes from the experienced ranks of Cocoon.
Oxjam is about raising money for Oxfam to tackle poverty all over the world. Supporting Oxjam helps people to earn a living; to get an education; health care; fresh water; and to grow more food. If you want to know more

In the Cream Room…
Costa Urbana
The starting point of Costa Urbana is the city by the sea, the Mediterranean metropolis; that inexplicably blissful contrast one is experiencing at the edge of the busy city-port... the strict blue horizon;
the harbour, the voyage... It explores the beauty of the South European, Balkan, Middle Eastern and North African coast and its people; where tradition and roots in entertainment and the arts blend with modernity and new urban mythology. At Synergy cU will present like-minded live London-based projects and a new breed of roots clubbing from behind
the decks.

In the Deep Blue Room…

Workshops
Portraiture Workshops hosted by Wendalena
When did you go out clubbing last and ended up sharpening your artistic skills by drawing in a live model class? Wendalena is certainly not your usual club culture performer and with her vibrant charisma she has managed to draw in audiences far larger than the live drawing circle can hold. The classes’ start at 12.30 am and finish at 3:30 am and takes place in the The Synergy Gallery space – don’t miss it – all materials provided!

Talks/Debates
A series of presentations hosted by Jeff ('Good Jeff') Laster will be held on the night:
Co-host: Susanna Lafond Circle Community, StoneHenge guardian and legendary activist for many progressive causes.
The talks will be held throughout the night in the Laughing Room stage area:
Future of psychedelics UK symposium
A panel of legendary UK Psychedelic voyagers from various generations (Fraser Clark, Mark Heley, Andy Letcher) will help us look into the future of Psychedelics in general and into the UK Psychedelic scene specifically. We will look at the history and ideas (Huxley, Leary etc.) of the Psychedelic scene (particularly in the UK) and what went right and what went wrong.
Then the Synergy panelists and audience will share their experiences and brainstorm together to see how the Psychedelics scene might look in the future.
RAW POWER: How the Raw Food Diet Can Improve Your Being
Two of the most inspiring Raw Food 'gurus' in the UK, 'Shazzie' and Kate (Wood) Magic come to Synergy to show Synergy clubbers the benefits of Raw Food Diet.g
The audience will be encouraged to question Shazzie and Kate about all aspects of Raw Food. Kate and Shazzie will talk about their own conversions to Raw Food and show us the beauty and power of Raw. Finally they will show us how we can go raw too!
TALKTALK: The Synergy Clubber's Free Speech Forum
Have a strong opinion about a political issue? Do you want to publicise a protest? Maybe you want to let off steam. Or do you have something spiritual you want to share? Perhaps you want to read a poem. Suggestions to make Synergy better?
Whatever you want to say, come to the Deep Blue Sea Room at 10:30 (see GoodJeff) to speak for five to ten minutes about whatever you wish.
This will be a regular feature of the Synergy Talks. Your talk will be filmed and shown on the Net so your opinion/statement/words will reach a lot of people.
