The tuning fork

The right note, the one a whole orchestra tunes to.

This is who we are.
Help us bring these values to life — together, we create this space.
Any breach may result in being asked to leave the event.

“A tuning fork is an acoustic resonator. When struck, it produces several tones — a fundamental and at least one harmonic.” It gives a reference note, so that musicians can tune together.

The symbolic object
The application
1The reference tool: the tuning fork
1The intervention tool is you, the human
2Its action: giving the right note
2Your action: bringing order, presenting the right logic
3Its measure: the hertz
3The measure: well-being, ease, getting along
4Its manifestation: the vibration of the air that creates a sound
4The manifestation: the courage to get involved in a discordant situation
“Not merely being IN tune, but embodying THE tuning fork, means choosing integrity, confronting foolishness and getting involved to restore order.”
20 behavioural harmonics

To vibrate at the right note and avoid distortion on a dance floor:

  1. The smile: smile, forgive, prevent.
  2. Personal safety: everyone has the right to their personal space, physical and mental.
  3. The tribe: we ARE a family. Love your family.
  4. Kindness: the people who welcome you apply a caring philosophy and wish to welcome you as family.
  5. The buddy system: together, let's take care of each other, in an approach that prevents abuse (Keep An Eye On Your Friends).
  6. The priority: the dance floor is SACRED. Respect the sacred zone.
  7. Dancing: the floor is for movement. If you're not dancing, please, keep moving!
  8. Soft-touch: we NEVER push dancers. We smile, apologize, and wait for the way to open. LoveTouch.
  9. No cell phone on the dance floor: if you stop dancing to text, step to the side.
  10. Leave no trace: empty bottles and trash go in the bin, not on the floor.
  11. Never block the floor: bags go to the coat check or to the side.
  12. Free zone of drama: nothing should ever deserve violence, ever.
  13. Generosity: abundance is a law of the Universe for those who know how to appreciate and give back.
  14. Listening: be open to feedback and to the beauty of the world; don't impose your opinions.
  15. Let it go: an open, curious, generous, empathetic mind — and FUN.
  16. Let it flow: feel that magical energy running through the body when we dance, talk and laugh.
  17. Let it be: don't just be an observer, be part of the show.
  18. One love: you are not alone. We are ONE. One Love. One S.O.U.L.
  19. The source: we are all connected to a Great Whole, bigger than us, which we welcome with humility.
  20. Life: it's magic. Feel gratitude for your consciousness, your existence. Take the time.
