As this year’s directors we would like to welcome you to the 47th Whole Earth Festival! We would like to give major props to the WEF staff for making this weird and wonderful thing happen, it could not have been done without their hard work and dedication. We would also like to give a huge thanks to the volunteers who keep this whole earth festival go around. We hope that you stick around to experience as much of the festival as you can and immerse yourself in the RAWness and the authenticity of all that it has to offer. From the handmade crafts and the great music to fresh compost piles and the raw workshops we hope that you get to see and do it all. #stayRAW Much love and good vibes,
Yousef “the Lorax” Buzayan & Larysa “the Cable Guy” Fomina

WERC
KARMA DOME
As your Karma Patrol Directors, we are working towards creating a cohesive, friendly and safe space and are here
for you if you need anything during the festival. If you need any guidance or assistance during your festival experience, you can find us in the green-purple-tan Karma Dome, at the
northeast corner of the quad.
We are also here to support the several hundred Non-Vio-lent Conflict Resolution-trained Karma Patrol Volunteers that
make this experience possible for all of you. Our Karma Patrollers are a crucial resource at this festival as they:
-set/up take down the festival-ensure a zero waste environment by assisting with WERC
(Whole Earth Reusables Cooperative), composting and recycling
-Answer questions or help you find the Karma Dome-Space-keeping and Night-keeping-- roving, roaming and
establishing a safe space through non-violent conflict resolution
As you enjoy the festival please be sure to thank the Karma Patrol Volunteers!
Your 2016 Karma Patrol Directors,
Amelia Evard & Jess Tierney
If WEF is a living, breathing organism (which, arguably, it is) the
Karma Patrol is the blood pumped from the Karma Dome heart to all of the space
organs, keeping the festival alive and pulsing!
COMPOST & RECYCLING We are the super coordinators from CNR! What’s our goal? Well, that’s a good question! We want zero waste! Let us tell you something, as an old politician from Vermont says: “Enough is enough.” We shall stop wasting precious resources! Plastics, oranges, broken guitars, dishes of food. Join the movement. It’s Cool and Revolutionary. It’s a mélange of Compost and Recycling! So many colors, and opportunities Your disposables will be of use again one day Let’s be honest: maybe not tomorrow…But one day, it may be reused as a toothbrush or a plastic heart That would save your life or the one of your future wife. So how about it my friends? Do you want to come aboard? Meet us between Wellman and Wickson Hall (North West of Quad)
Kawayan De Guzman & Mehdi Bouzouina
We are the Whole Earth Reusable Cooperative directors. The WEF family has missed reusable dishes so much that we have finally brought them back! Bye, compostables, you are becoming history. Welcome home, reusables, you are the future. And of course, you, my favorite person at the festival, is going to help us out. After you enjoy your delicious food, please bring the dirty dish to a dish return booth located on the east and west sides of the quad. See, it’s so simple to be sustainable.

EXPERIENTIAL SPACE WORKSHOPS2:00-4:00pm
White Noise Collective Spirituality and Cultural AppropriationWhen white people practice yoga, Native American spirituality, Buddhist meditation, West African drumming, or other
spiritual practices from non-European cultures, what are the impacts? As Jarune Uwujaren points out in The Difference Between Cultural Exchange and Cultural Appropriation, “we have a responsibility to listen to people of marginalized
cultures, understand as much as possible the blatant and subtle ways in which their cultures have been appropriated and exploited, and educate ourselves enough to make informed choices when it comes to engaging with people of other cultures.” Coming from a stance of curiosity, this workshop is offered to develop a shared understanding of
cultural appropriation and its diverse impacts, directly informed by voices from Native and POC communities. 4:30-5:30pm
Alex Leach Accepting OneselfAccepting Oneself is about seeing that every part of you is perfectly okay just as it is. We all walk around with this
inner critic that tells us that we look wrong, say things wrong, and do things wrong. The lie of the inner critic is that if I could just be more like "x", then I will be worthy of love. But the answer isn't to strive to contort ourselves into being
more like "x". The answer is to discover who we truly are, and that we are already worthy of love. Participants will engage in exercises that will help them confront and transcend their inner critic, and exercises that practice the skill of
accepting oneself just as they are.

EXPERIENTIAL SPACE WORKSHOPS11:00-12:30pm Kirsten Elise Tapping Into Your Soul’s Purpose
Join us to learn about Meridian Tapping aka "EFT" (Emotional Freedom Technique), gain clarity around your purpose and shift towards a career that is in alignment with your soul's true calling. Meridian Tapping is a clinically proven method that clears energy blockages stored in your body caused by trauma or negative experiences. By
literally tapping on meridian points (as used in acupuncture) in conjunction with affirmations, you will instantly release stored blockages, fears, old thought patterns, and limiting beliefs to realign yourself with your true passions. Kirsten Elise is a deeply empathic artist, healer and life coach dedicated to helping her clients live passionate,
purposeful lives. She teaches tapping workshops as a way of creating powerful healing within group settings. More information can be found at www.kirstenelise.com.
1:00-2:00pm Andreas Toupadakis Colleges of the anxious: Consequences and SolutionsKnown for being almost too happy, Professor toupadakis emphasizes learning to be happy, working hard and finding a place where you belong. He teaches Chem 2ABC,
Chem 10, and Physical Chemistry for Life Sciences. Every year he gives away handmade soap with a carving of the “Life Curve” to his highest scoring student.
2:30-4:00pm Shayan, Abbas and Ippolito Compassion CrewOur workshops and retreats focus on repurposing our daily interactions onto a foundation of compassion. Being more aware of how your body and mind are their own
eco-system and the better you take care of that the better you can take care of each other and the world. We are happy to use interactive artistic expression and collaborative discussion to create the motivation and inspiration to enact change in the world. To realize our own vulnerability and be overjoyed with the mission of
enacting this change on others, we can create a global network of compassion that will in turn make our planet and our community healthier.

If you love Whole Earth Festival, you have to stop by Art Space! As it stands today, this space is an ode to the festival’s origins. The first festival in 1969 was coined an “Art Happening” with its existential purpose being to use art as a means of teaching the community about social, personal, and environmental wellness. This year, we’ve
hand selected a variety of pieces to display during the festival that we personally feel relate back to this original purpose and to this year’s festival theme: RAW. We will also
be hosting activities and artist-run workshops and presentations in our space throughout the festival weekend! If you happen to be walking by the Memorial Union, you might catch a glimpse of our Sculpture Garden, which is graciously provided by
John Natsoulas from his personal gallery downtown. Yes, the one with the dog. If you like what you see in our collection, make sure to stop by his gallery sometime for
more!

you can see some of the things collected by WEF's Archivists over the years, buy WEF memorabilia, make donations to
your favorite festival, plan reunions and

Joe Craven Intuitive ImprovisationIn this workshop, Joe will teach you how to make better music in the moment, jam with folks you’ve never
met, and/or say something different every time you take a solo. Show up “empty handed, open minded” for this class. It will help deepen your connection to spontaneity, movement and seeing the value of not being
attached to the outcome when letting your creative juices flow.
2:30-3:30pmAlex Leach Compassionate Communication
Compassionate Communication helps people engage in honest & authentic dialogue by creating a sense of safety and connection. By avoiding the debate of who is right and who is wrong, space is created for you
and I to simply share what is going on inside of ourselves. Empathy is the foundation of this kind of dialogue, and with practice we can hear even the ugliest messages with compassion. Participants will gain a deeper awareness of their inner experience, they will practice the skills needed to share that authentically
with others, and the skill of listening with compassion and empathy to difficult messages.

3:00-4:30 PM "Climate Change Forces Post-Capitalism" YOUNG 194 Terry Bisson and Kim Stanley Robinson This will be the Fifth annual discussion at WEF of climate change and economics as seen from a science fiction perspective, with local luminary Kim Stanley Robinson this time joined by Nebula Award winning hippie short-story god Terry Bisson.
11:00 AM "INTERNET COLONIALISM: THE FIGHT FOR YOUR MIND" YOUNG 184 Lauren GarciaIn order to resist social control in the increasingly Orwellian world of digital media, we must first understand how it operates. Internet access, surveillance and censorship have the power to shape public dialog and decide your future. The public has the power to decide its own future, but first we have to get smart.
9:00 AM -12:00 PM PERMACULTURE ACTION TRI-COOPS REGAN HALL CIRCLE UC DAVIS Derek Downey, Kaitlin Oki and Kat Perkins and Jasmine Saavedra Fuego The first Permaculture Action Tour launched from San Francisco in late September and embarked on a multicity quest to empower fans through community action and permaculture education. Musicians The Polish Ambassador, Ayla Nereo, Mr. Lif, and visual designer Liminus travelled to 32 cities, encouraging fans from their show to come out the following days to get their hands dirty in an organized permaculture action day. (www.permacultureaction.org) Join us for the second annual morning of permaculture in the Tri Co-operative gardens! Beginning with a potluck breakfast at 9 am, we will spend the morning learning about and putting permaculture principles into action. The Tri Co-operatives are home to a community of 30 students committed to living and learning co-operatively. As one of the communities of the Solar Community Housing Association, the Tri Co-ops are committed to providing low income co-operative housing that works to confront and critique systems of oppression through ecological awareness, inclusive self-governance and alternative economic models. In accordance with these principles, the community does not tolerate racism, transphobia, misogyny, xenophobia, homophobia, Zionism, anti-semitism, Islamophobia, cultural appropriation, classism, ableism, or any other form of prejudice or discrimi-nation on Tri Co-operative grounds. Please be mindful and considerate of these principles.
1:00 PM “Why Don't Dolphins Fight Back? Critiquing Anthropocentrism & Seeing Beyond Our Cultural Conditioning" YOUNG 184 Laura Bridgeman Western culture frames our relations with other animals and "nature" in ways that prevent our recognition of non-human agency. Our laws deny dolphins the rights to their own lives, and humans are placed at the top of a hierarchy that is inherently oppressive. This talk will examine practical ways that we can transcend these conceptual boundaries and illustrates what happens when we do so.
1:00-3:00 PM PERMACULTURE ACTION FILM & COMMENTARY YOUNG 194 Jasmine Saavedra Fuego Zac Fabian was the videographer and media director for the first Permaculture Action Tour, His film will show the world a music tour that inspired and introduced permaculture to hundreds of fans of the Polish Ambassador, Ayla Nereo and Mr Lif who wanted to learn more about sustainably growing food, something that will be increasingly important and a sustainable alterna-tive to corporate agriculture in the future. Jasmine Saavedra Fuego was part of the original Permaculture Action Tour and part of the current Permaculture Action Network. www.permacultureaction.org/

Project Nuevo Mundo is a platform that connects people and impact centers, encouraging resource sharing on the web and on the ground to catalyze planetary regeneration and individual transformation. Vision: Our vision is to create a physical and virtual network of interlinked impact centers (ecovillages, educational demonstration living and learning centers) that greatly impact the surrounding community and those who live or work there. We hope to connect people to new meaningful work experiences in all skill trades that will provide them with a personal transformation and will accelerate the development of the impact centers. We want to demonstrate harmonic future trajectories for human living that are feasible, desirable and healthy for all living things. www.projectnuevomundo.com

2:00 - 3:30 Occupy the Farm Film and commentary YOUNG 194 Director Todd Darling "On Earth Day April 22, 2012, I received a text: a couple hundred urban farmers were marching onto ten plus acres of fallow farmland and the site of a former agricultural research center known as the Gill Tract. The farmers hoped to stop development of a shopping mall and condo complex on the site of the former research station, and de-rail plans that threatened to remove the class one agricultural land from farming. The activists brought with them 16,000 seedlings, roto tillers, shovels and tents. Within a few hours, they’d planted an acre of vegetables, put up a big banner that read: Occupy the Farm, and set up a tent village to defend the crops" The battle over the last large piece of farmland in California’s East Bay raged for months. This successful direct action altered the fate of this land owned by the University of California at Berkeley, sent urban agriculture into local headlines, and demonstrated how hopes for social justice can become a reality. This, the urban farmers announced, was “Occupy 2.0.” - See more at: http://occupythefarmfilm.com/

Our goal again this year is to help make direct connections between the people who use things and the people who make them.
We are continuing WEF's commitment to community by offering only hand-made crafts and art -- sold by the people that made them. Whether in
food or in clothes, we feel it is important to connect with each other. As you walk around and admire beautifully crafted objects, we encour-
age you to talk with their makers. Often the life histories of these artisans embody the values WEF has been promoting over the years -- peace, self–suf-ficiency, sustainability, joy, and embracing our natural world. Their stories may
be as wonderful as their art.
