KONFLUXUS MANIFESTO

A stream is a continuously transmitted flow of data batches containing digital information.

A livestream is a type of stream in which the server transmits events in real time through a live, continuous connection.

Stream art is performative livestreaming.

Konfluxus is a stream art collective.

Stream art is collaborative.

Anyone can practice stream art who has access to the following:

The livestream will be the last digital medium that can hold reality accountable.

Stream art, as an act, opposes the hegemonic territorialization of the hyperspace. It resists the privatization of online connection. It is radically ungraspable. It is inevitably political.

The present-ness of the stream is an oral superiority against censorship.

Through its constantly changing, fragmented nature, stream art denies the possibility of complete cognition. This quality is given meaning by the constancy of the camera.

The camera is the only static point of the stream. The camera is a gateway, the stream is a window, Konfluxus is a transceiver.

Konfluxus remixes reality through the greenscreen.

The greenscreen liberates the surface within the digital space.

This surface enables both the evocation of the past and speculation about the future; it detaches time and democratizes video.

Through the medium of the stream, Konfluxus glocalizes the visual language of the post-internet present: image entropy, anarchive.

Konfluxus is a funnel where media and individuals flow into one another.

fluxus = flow = stream

Fluxus is an intermedial current.

Konfluxus is fluxus.

Fluxus is luxury.

Konfluxus as a whole is more than the sum of its parts.

Its actants and roles are permeable.

Stream art is a prayer towards a direction, not an entity. The presumed or real receiver is just as essential as the presumed or real message.

Konfluxus is always, at all times, open to interaction in both online and offline spaces.

Konfluxus is a stage that welcomes everything that seeks to emerge.
