This is the official website for the New Zealand Cacophony Society Lodge.

On this website, you will be able to see some of our completed missions, some of the things we have planned, and Press Releases for those who are curious about us.

By joining the Cacophony Society, we assume you are eccentric, intelligent, and prepared to go just a bit further than most to prove a point, or entertain yourself, or get excitement.

Cacophony is not an original idea. There are Cacophony Societies in many parts of America. We assume you're already some sort of bona fide eccentric or you wouldn't be interested in Cacophony at all. Our tagline, "You may already be a member!" says a lot about how we operate. In a sense, we never create anything new at all. We never claim to come into a town and teach people how to be amusingly subversive. They're already doing it! We just raise the bogus flag, and see who will gather under the flagpole for further mischief.
Obviously there are a lot of creative malcontents out there doing the stuff they like to do whether or not they've ever heard of our Society. We assume you're one of those. If you are, we're lucky. If you have a few like-minded friends, we're even luckier. And if you have some sort of near-evangelical fervor to spread the word, a lot of free time, maybe a bit of money, then you help yet one more city combust and cave in
The various lodges are different but bear a family resemblance to one another. Like families, they may squabble, envy, backstab, and inspire. If you're getting out of line, your family will let you know. If you don't like it, you can always run away with the name.

Cacophony is about fun.
We have no immediate aim to overthrow the government.
We are not a political organisation, but we will attend political rallies, to spice things up.
We do not have direct ties to Anarchists, Communists, Labour Party or extremists. Although we do not deny our members these political viewpoints.
Cacophony is not a terrorist organisation.
We are not out for revenge.
Small businesses should not be targeted.
We never hurt people or animals.
Cacophony is about culture jamming
Cacophony is about creating confusion.
Cacophony will pull public pranks, create guerrilla theatre, host public events and occasionally parties. However, as you may guess, creating confusion is our primary objective.
