Kaosmosis is a Portland-based creative ensemble . With collective professional backgrounds in film, sculpture, music, photography, graphic design, and animation, they have spent the last four and a half years combining their energies to produce highly eclectic, often playful events designed to inspire individuals to tap into their own creativity through participation. While each event is unique unto itself, the source of inspiration is derived from a constant inquiry: "What would happen if...?" This process of combining creation and expression has at its heart the basic desire of exploring artistic potential in a live setting. The result has been a successful experiment of collaborative events and art installations involving numerous artists, performers, musicians, and participants mixed together in theme-based environments. Kaosmosis has built their reputation by producing high-quality productions with very small budgets, relying on the generous talents of artists and conscious use of recycled materials.

KAOSMOSIS events generate a cultural paradigm
that encourages audience participation and
self-expression, supported by an integrated
program of performance and visual arts.

The mission of KAOSMOSIS
is to introduce diverse communities to each other
through quality eclectic, participatory arts
events and environments, with the intention of
growing creative community.

Kaosmosis and its side projects (including the
Dahoo Chorus) have been featured in The
Oregonian, The Willamette Week, Finder
Magazine, The Portland Tribune and The Mercury
as well as various other publications highlighting
Portland artists. The founders and performers
