The primary goal of this project is to create a conducive environment for organic, creative communal living experimentation. What sets the Ecovillage Laboratory apart from other ecovillages or similar communities is the absence of a pre-established group of residents. This unique aspect allows for unfettered exploration of diverse human dynamics, providing temporary participants with the opportunity to genuinely experience a sense of community without conforming to pre-existing social structures.
Prospective members can join the Ecovillage Laboratory through two avenues:
Establishing a nearby Home Base: Individuals can join by having a nearby home base that caters to personal needs, with the Resonance Hub serving as one viable option.
Temporary Participation: Alternatively, individuals can join for a limited time frame, offering the flexibility to leave if challenges related to human interactions, infrastructure, or weather conditions become overwhelming.
Regardless of the entry route chosen, a prerequisite for participation is membership in our association, "Valle de Sensaciones." Additionally, participants must take responsibility for their own health and safety and assume liability for any potential damages caused.
It's crucial to note that Valle de Sensaciones operates as a non-profit project. All contributions made by participants are utilized to sustain necessary resources, maintain existing infrastructure, and introduce new experimental constructions to enrich the environment. The overarching aim is not financial gain but rather the continual enhancement of the community's experimental ethos.
The eco-technical infrastructure aims to be of easy usage while at the same time being educative. This concept together with the artistic appearance attracting interest got the award for "investigation on renewable energy" by the Caja España in 2002.
