The Generator, overall project
What is it?
The Generator, art as the premise for policymaking, is an initiative which uses art to create legal fictions meant for implementation.
To participate to the project of The Generator you can either suggest a premise that The Generator would then invest, or react to one of the many that are already existing.
Precisions for contributors (thinkers, artists, policymakers, etc)
How it works
There is a certain optimistim needed for you in any kind of contribution or entreprise with The Generator. In its essence, The Generator trusts that everything is possible, and that nothing but ourselves are stepping between our limited perspective what society is and the experience of society as a playground for experiences with beauty. History is created by the conditions that make an event happen, and wee need to create the foundations for this history to happen. The Generator stands for the ability of individuals to emancipate from norms and structures in which their freedom to explore is condemned to operate under behaviors that haven't allowed us to transcend our artistic society,

Special notes for artist contributions
How it works
As an artist contributor you can propose an interpretation - out of the ones available (and/or propose one) - of how the reality would look like if those systems were really implemented. You can use any medium you would like to (photography, painting, writing, performance, film, etc.) - knowing that if we work with abstractions as to the conceptualising part of policymaking, The Generator takes a stand for a form of clarity within the representations of those. We think of the arts as embedded with the ability to clarify complex concepts and expand the possibility for comprehension of an idea as a whole. Think of your contribution as a fictional documentary; how would the world look like? Text-us if you have any other questions, we can help you getting it off the ground.
Special notes for thinker contributions
How it works
As a thinker contributor you can critique the proposals and their interpretations, enhance limits and/or ways to break through them. The angle that you should take to speak our language is the language of rhetoric as The Generator stands for the possibility that any rhetorically accurate sentence can be outputted into reality. We are looking for articulate and correct, leaning-on-inclusion groups of phrases dissecting systems of interactions. Another way to contribute is -your turn- to propose a policy idea or unit of value for an alternative currency. The Generator will publish absurdities and total abstractions if the ideas within are going in the direction we are following. We won’t publish “noir” ideas.
Special notes for policymakers and people of relative power/influence
​
As a policymaker, mathematician, scientist, gallery worker, agent, newspaper, printer, etc, - you can send us your knowledge and enlightenment on the developed concepts, you can give us ideas as to how to implement it in a real world. Simply; you can offer us exposure or/and advocate for our ideas within your fields.
