MATTERIST MANIFESTO

matter
-noun
a substance of which a physical object is made of.
-verb
to be of importance

Today we look around at our scarcity. The neutral, bare walls, the generic labels on our food consumption bags, The communal transportation tubes. We awake to the holographic alarm and the drone of the universal awakening program. We get out of bed and can barely feel the ground beneath our feet.

We say NO! to the conformity, to the universalism, to the ant-like structure of the society we live in. To the assigned positions of which we fulfill, in order to serve the greater good.

We say NO! to the banishment of ‘objects’. We are weakened by your holographic technology. By the representation of objects in our environments and the falsity of sense perception brought upon by the Hub Corporation. In the rarity that it is present, the manufacturing of scent, color, shape and feel of hubjects are inferior to the reality of substance that we have experienced while touching an ‘object’.

We, the matterists have come across proof of the ‘object’ a proof of a society before us that was a precursor to this now docile, insipid existence of today. One of ‘object’ worship, where companies created and encouraged the use of ‘objects’. Where people of society themselves had a hand in creating and giving ‘objects’ to each other as ‘gifts’.

matterism

1. We intend to revive the tangible, awaken the senses and tear at the cloak that the Hub Corp. has thrown over our imagination and individuality.

2. Up to now, audio streams run by Hub Corp. have instilled feared and paranoia by declaring materials dangerous and synonymous of ultimate destruction based on little known historical facts that only they seem to possess.

4. We believe in what is called animism, the belief of all things possessing a soul including people, plants, and geographical destinations. We have been numbed to these vibrations by the automation of our society.

3. We believe that humans imprint emotions upon objects and the process of creating and choosing materials of an object is a sacred act. One of bonding and nurturing that will stimulate the drone-like mind of today. We must act before it is too late! Already we have turned into one bland, barely-breathing plain-wrapped organism. What of texture, poetry, what of color? No more browns, no more beige! We have found evidence of at least 100 shades of green! Where are those represented? Imagine one hundred individual preferences as opposed to the sameness in all that is given to us, no, forced upon us!

4. Courage, audacity, choice and revolt are essential elements in our actions.

5. We will bring back the gift! Set up stations of transaction, use materials of actuality and embark on a process of choice and creation with an individual human in mind, we will break down the barriers that they have built between one another, establish sentiment and promote mementos once more.

6. We will destroy all institutions, museums and holographic establishments of every kind. We will fight anti-matter and materialism. This is the ticket to our freedom!

Here reader is where you choose before proceeding to the next iteration of our word. If you decide to continue, you will become an active, no longer a dormant slave. Within you hands now is already a validation of trust, but now we must not ask only trust of you, but fearlessness. We intend to subvert while using the highest of technologies, ones that are used to suppress and replace the very things we are reviving. You are a matterist from this period forth.

7. We have found and already implemented a way to acquire lost materials, create them, and send and receive without detection.

8. We are able to pass through the matter sensing apparatuses undetected. With the use of anti-gravitational nodes secured to our parcels and soft matter technology taken from the dominating holographic one of today. With it we put the material in a temporary state of fluidity that the piezoelectric sensors can not detect, since they are completely reliant on rigidity alone.

9. We will continue to be undetected from coming back from what we call Material Farms. The Material Farms, other than the material museums we seek to destroy, have the largest collection of artifacts and salvaged material of the old world, we also have highly skilled chemists using old world recipes to create new batches of materials with new abilities to imprint neural patterns onto the object created hence forth. Ones of which you can create a ‘gift’ from for the recipient of your choice. Due to secrecy, these Material Farms will be consistently changing location. Once you have taken your first step within one, we will intercept the main chip in your brain tuned to the universal radio station and transmit through our own pirate station the locations as we hop to keep secrecy.

ONCE YOU ARE THERE:

2.1 Once you have your materials picked out, we will offer support in the creation of your memento. You will right away feel a sense of overwhelming community mixed with a feeling of individual expression pouring into the very molecules of the matter of which you will be holding in your hand. If you feel nothing, do not worry, use the imprint capable material until you are ready to move on by your own means.

2.2. You will caress the item, smell the chemical make-up of the material and feel various sensations that we can only describe with words we thought long lost in our vocabulary.
squishy
crackle
slimy
flutter
throb
crunchy
smooth
Many more will be discovered as we unearth this lost tradition!
Sensory overload may happen, we will have clinicians on stand-by in case of over stimulation.

2.3 Once we have worked and loaded your senses, you will create! Your creation will be reactionary to the stimulation and you will think of the person that you are creating for and make choices based on how they make you feel.

CHOICE IN MATTER
2.4 If you choose an existing matter, remember it is not the function of the object in the end, but the connection you will feel once you see the soul of the object for the first time.
- Item of found material is reserved for an advanced user, one that has connected to the old ways and have been able to communicate with the soul of an object without the assistance of neural technology. It will give the receiver a chance to build their sensory palette. They will be flooded with memories and associations that they might never have experienced before.

2.5 If deciding to create a piece from the neural imprint material, we will provide you with anti-gravitational nodes and transition your matter into a state of fluidity for 24 hours while you pass through the matter detectors. You will then take it home and sleep with it by your side, the new material will sync with you and be imprinted with your unique neural pattern. This is your individuality coming through. Do not be alarmed if you have vivid dreams that night! This is the soul being awaken within!
- This is a good way to introduce a beginner gift-giver into the system, wether on the giving or receiving side. The ability of our man-made material to grab your neural patterns while in sleep mode will assist anyone having a hard time finding the soul of the object and connecting with it. This can however also be dangerous in a way that you have no control over what it grabs. It can imprint as much pain as it can joy within the object.
We say embrace the heartache if it is there!

GIFTING
2.6 There is tradition in gift-giving that we have lost long ago. We believe that the process of creation invested within the ‘object’ will be seen, felt and transmitted to the receiver upon accepting the gift.
The receiver needs to be a matterist themselves in order to maintain the level of security needed to preserve this act.
Once received the made ‘object’ will emanate your personal intention and individual choice.

2.7 The recipient will have an hour to bask in this in our own facilities. After that, they will either need to set up an appointment to give an ‘object’ themselves, destroy the object or do what we encourage, go against the conformity and take it home with you to collect and use as a reminder towards the society that we will inevitably be creating through action!

Through encouragement of creation and connecting one on one with individuals through the sanctity of objects. We believe this new found investment of ‘objects’ will awaken the control we all have lost through assimilation.

Objects equal freedom!
Annihilate the Hub!
