The Tribes
The four tribes of our story – Deepfields, Vuur, Taka Tuka and Fríz each mastering their own art form while connected to a natural force. They are existing in parallel universes, and have a distinct culture of their own. Each tribe has the incentive to meet with different cultures, learn from them and eventually form a constellation of a common knowledge. The parallel universes are divided by invisible walls throughout the year, blocking the route for our peoples to connect with each other. UbikEklektik is supposed to be the cohesive force, which opens the gate between the disconnected worlds.
The following four tribes will each have a particular location within the festival, which they create on their own and where they can introduce their culture.
Deepfields
Deepfields is the ancient civilization of the air, they are creators of many of the first traditions of Ubik. They float with ease through times and ages, contemplating about the essence of existence. They are wise philosophersdevoted to poetry, and deep electronic music, with an intention to help to expand one another’s mind.
AZURE
AZURE is the tribe of the fire, the element of energy that fuels the spirit. Vuur has a substantial effect on its surroundings, a tribe you can’t miss for good. Their craft is painting, they are not leaving a single event without impressive decorations: you’ll see definite marks of this tribe throughout UbikEklektik.
Taka Tuka
Taka Tuka, the folk of the earth, architects of their own special atmosphere. In the blink of an eye, they create and install unique objects anywhere. Taka Tuka is the patron of sculpture and construction. You’ll be glad to meet this tribe of charming wanderers, and be amazed by their hospitality and atypical installations.
Fríz
Fríz are the people of the waters, a tribe appearing in different shapes and forms. As variable as a group can be, they encourage performances of any kind. You may find them next to the waters of the Ubikverse, and join their dances, artistic rituals, and ceremonies.
