🌀 THE VISUAL LANGUAGE OF SPIRAL TRIBE 🌀

Feenix13 was one of the founding members of Spiral Tribe and a central force behind the organisation, visual identity, design and transformation of their event spaces.

When the crew travelled across Europe, it was Feenix 13 who coined the word “Teknival”, a term that would become inseparable from the underground movement developing across the continent 🏴‍☠️

On Saturday 19 September, Feenix 13 will shape the visual atmosphere of the SP23 night in real time, transforming the warehouse through imagery, symbols and movement.

BEATS. BLEEPS. BASSLINES. CHEEKY RAPS.

Bad Girlz bring together IxIndamix’s slamming electronic rhythms and analogue mischief with Simone Sim Simmer’s soulful melodies, irreverent lyrics and unmistakable energy!

Two original members of the Spiral Tribe SP23 story. Two raving mothers with attitude. One explosive live performance 🌀

Sim Simmer was there at the very first Spiral Tribe party. When the police confiscated the generator, she organised another one in the middle of the night…and the party continued… 🏴‍☠️

Twenty years later, their signature blend of rave energy, heavy electronics, humour and attitude continues to move dancefloors of Boomtown, Glastonbury Festival and across the whole Europe.

A PEN. BLACK INK. A LOGARITHMIC SPIRAL.

After leaving his job in Reading, Mark Angelo Harrison Mark Angelo moved to London, where he immersed himself in a world of DJs, artists and musicians.

While working at a print studio, he discovered the logarithmic spiral of an ammonite… a symbol of life, evolution and chaos. The next day, he quit his job and began a new project.

🌀 He called it Spiral Tribe🌀

Today, Mark is a writer, photographer and artist whose visual work remains inseparable from the history and identity of the movement.

On Friday 18 September, he brings Space Pirates Screen Printing to the Spiral Tribe Exhibition. Bring your own T-shirt and print it with an original Space Pirates design 🏴‍☠️
