Manifesto Project

The goal of the New Order of Digital Artwork is to create a non-profit, universally accessible style of art that fully embraces the computer technologies and changes in social dynamics brought on by the internet that have helped shape and define life in the 21st century. Computers and the internet are both powerful tools that afford a large number of people the ability to access and disseminate vast amounts of information at remarkable speeds, and it is our belief that the artistic community should embrace these tools. With the help of these tools it is possible for artists around the world to create a universal art with the potential of creating a common ground amongst all the people of the world. During these volatile times it is key for various cultures to see eye to eye with each other and the creation of a universal artwork is a huge step towards a universal cultural understanding. Peace and harmony is within our grasp and it is the duty of artists around the world to begin this process.

We believe that the classic forms of art such as painting, sculpture, and even the writing of novels are limited in their scope and are therefore outdated and obsolete. The dissemination of these forms of art is made difficult by their reliance on physical materials, therefore the proliferation of these forms of artwork have been deemed counter productive to the creation of a universal art. All art must use elements of computer technology and be easily accessible via the internet if it is to be accepted by the New Order of Digital Artwork as a legitimate piece of art that has helped contribute to the creation of a universal art.

It is our belief that all art should be created with the single-minded goal of the creation of a universal cultural understanding amongst all the people of the world and should therefore be free of outside influences such as the desire of fame and wealth and other personal matters that are counter productive to the proliferation of mutual cultural understanding. Therefore, the New Order of Digital Artwork will only recognize anonymous pieces of art that have garnered absolutely no profits for the artist in question. We refuse to accept the unwanted influences of money and popularity and the greed and selfish desires that they inevitably bring with them. Our focus must be on the selfness pursuit of unity and understanding amongst all of the world’s inhabitants and wealth and fame have to place in that pursuit.

It is our belief that all art should contain elements of the artists own culture. One of the primary goals of the New Order of Digital Artwork is to influence and develop cultural understanding all around the world through the use of digital art and with the help of computer technologies and the internet. It is impossible to accomplish this task if the artwork in question is devoid of cultural influences. Therefore, The New Order of Digital Artwork will only recognize artwork with clearly recognizable cultural influences that help to contribute to the understanding of the culture/cultures in question.

Peace and Harmony is within our grasp and as artists we have the ability to help facilitate a universal artwork that helps to proliferate a mutual cultural understanding. However, this goal can only be accomplished with the help of the amazing new technologies that the 21st century has brought us. We here at the New Order of Digital Artwork encourage all artists to abandon older, outdated art forms and embrace digital art and the creation of a universal art.
