I love reading manifestos, especially those by artists and weird early 20th-century political parties. Anyway, for this swap, you will create your own manifesto. For examples, check out this Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_manifesto You will send each of your three partners your manifesto. The manifesto can take whatever form you like: it could be your radical statement of goals for your idea of utopia, your ten commandments of creativity, your call for more hedonism now, or whatever it is that gets you fired up. It can be highly surreal or utterly practical, or anything in between, but make it bold and interesting. Present your manifesto on a sheet of paper which should look cool in whichever way you interpret cool to mean. Hand-lettered or typed, richly embellished or starkly minimalist, it's up to you. Everybody, including newbies, is welcome for this swap, although I will ban anyone who looks dodgy. I will check all profiles, so message me with an explanation if you have an unfair rating or an average of below 4.5 but still want to join. NB Pictured is a Fluxus manifesto. |
