Symbiosis Gathering, a multifaceted lakeside music and arts event, today premiered a fourteen episode web series showcasing the unique talents of members of the Symbiosis community. The ‘We Are Symbiosis’ series is a first of its kind festival media project, paving the way for how gatherings communicate both within and outside of their community.
The first four videos from the series feature sustainability education pioneer Jonathan Youtt, botanist Brian Wallace, Kundalini yoga instructor Naomi Charanpal, and tattoo artist Philip Milic. Philip Milic is also an instructor for the Elemental Alchemy Visionary Arts program and designed this year’s Symbiosis Gathering ticket artwork. These subjects represent thought leaders in the Symbiosis community, a true exposé of the forward-thinking creative components of the event.
The ‘We Are Symbiosis’ miniseries was filmed and directed by Noah Hussin whose documentary America Recycled was recently awarded ‘Best US Feature Documentary’ at the American Documentary Film Festival in Palm Springs.
