Transmission from the Desert
An Immersive Gathering

ATOMIKA is an experimental, annual gathering that fuses immersive art, deep inquiry, and powerful music within and around a Cold War era nuclear missile silo near Roswell, New Mexico.
Together we will transform a doomsday weapon into a hub of interstellar imagination, fostering a cross-disciplinary exploration of contact, consciousness, and cosmic culture.
We will reimagine a former weapon of destruction as a cultural beacon — a ritual site for deep listening and scientific curiosity. With world-class partners and a multidisciplinary lineup, ATOMIKA bridges the worlds of SETI, consciousness research, electronic music, and avant-garde art.
Held on November 6-8, 2026, one thousand curious minds, scientists, artists, and musicians will gather across an expansive desert landscape and descend 174 feet underground for select sessions inside the restored missile complex, exploring questions about humanity's cosmic future through three days of immersive programming and live performance.
Above ground beneath a new moon, the stars will shine with rare brilliance as one of the darkest locations on Earth becomes a dreamlike setting for speculative dialogue and driving music. ATOMIKA will weave together bleeding edge research, art installations, and interactive multi-sensory experiences. Live performances will span electronic and ambient sounds alongside space data sonification.
