The Utopia Experiment was an experiment by Dylan Evans, set up in the Scottish highlands. It involved the establishing and running of a microcommunity of catastrophists.[1] It was time-limited to 18 months, and served as both a learning community (where everyone had a skill of knowledge they could teach the others) and a working community (where everyone would contribute by working).[2]

After 10 months Evans had become disillusioned with the project and concerned about their health. He went to see a doctor who referred him to a psychiatrist. Evans was then detained under the Mental Health Act for his own safety. After 4 weeks in a psychiatric hospital he returned to the experiment to inform the volunteers that it was over. However, they wished for the community to continue and renamed it the Phoenix Experiment. As of 2015 some of them were still there.[3]

Dylan Evans detailed his experience of the community in the 2015 book The Utopia Experiment.[4]
