Foundational MAnifest

Digital Granular Art is:

An artistic movement that transforms digital works into ecosystems of autonomous particles, where each unit simultaneously constitutes an aesthetic entity, a sovereign economic asset, and a relational component within a community system.

We, pioneers of art in the digital era, declare the birth of Digital Granular Art as the first artistic movement that unifies creation, distributed ownership, and community under a new paradigm where every particle breathes with a life of its own.

We invite artists, programmers, theorists, collectors, and art lovers in general to join this movement. We are not merely creating a new artistic style; we are establishing a new relationship between creators, works, and community. A relationship based on respect for individual autonomy, the celebration of compositional diversity, and a belief in the collective evolution of aesthetic meaning.

Foundational Principles:

1. PARTICULAR SOVEREIGNTY – Every digital particle possesses a unique identity and intrinsic value

2. UNIVERSAL FRACTIONALITY – All digital content can transform into a granular ecosystem

3. CREATIVE COLLECTIVITY – Distributed ownership enriches the work through diversity

4. ORGANIC EVOLUTION – Granular works evolve through community interaction

5. DIGITAL INTEROPERABILITY – Particles circulate across platforms while preserving identity
