The Declaration of the Imaginative Arts (Proposal):

If you are a true, and passionate practitioner of your Art then you will join us in this noble cause…Together let us show the world the True meaning of Art, let us redefine, remodel, restore the true glory and meaning of ART…Art free from the stagnant pollution Academic discrimination, of bourgeoisie mercantilism, of religious censorship…a new Revolution of the Mind…Let us show them the true meaning of Existence, the meaning of Life, from where we came from, to where we are going, and what are we!

If you are a creator of human expressions, of criticisms, of paradoxes, of visions and dreams, of human suffering and of the Human Psyche, come and join us…Let us show the imperialist crocodilians, the communistic snakes, the mystical capitalist, and the Religious voyeurs, the true Venom that we collectively share.

If your Imagination is infinite, boundless, periscopical, seeing beyond the normal perspectives of nature, piercing through the constraints and taboo of society, If you are a revolutionary thinker, creator of revolutionary psalms, ardent soldiers of the true meaning of reality, riddle-makers, labyrinth deceivers, metaphysical philosophers, or just a plain seeker of truth, then you belong with us.

We will no longer remain quiet in the comforts of our pseudo-impenetrable Homes. Let us not be contented by mass media brainwashing, of political persuasions, white-washing of the truth, bending of the facts. We are not ignorant…not anymore. Let us say the Truth, let us show it, and Let us expose the lies that civilization has “cursed” us. Let us exorcise the demons of faux-intellectualism. Let us reveal the darkest, innermost secret of cultic religion. Let us peel the mask of political upheavals, the horrors of human suffering, the fiery truth of lust, of greed, of all that is evil. Then let us make them realize that these are the things we need to change…We must show them the evil, the evil they and we must metamorphose into GOOD.

If you are a believer of Hope, of the endless limits of the mind, of the eternal glory of the Imagination, the only tool we must look for in order to balance the dualistic nature of the Universe, the Chaos/Order dichotomy, the Automatism of Life, then you deserve to be with us.

We believe in a utopia of human reasoning free from the constraint and sadomasochistic bondage of pseudo-logic, peering through the convulsive web of metanarratives, of taboos lay upon mankind through generations of psychological conditioning. The Utopia we are seeking exile with when we are exhausted by our waking life’s compulsive materialistic existence, the haven we are hoping to find when tormented by the requisites of capitalistic gain, the greediness of society, the faux religious requirements imposed upon us. It is in this Utopia that we call Imagination that we must go in order to seek answer to the sphinx that have riddled and ridiculed us long before we existed. It is through the Imagination that we are able to recall the true nature of human psyche free from any condemnations of Waking Life. Imagination is the tool for revolution and change…
If you rely on your Imagination as a beacon of hope for this decadent generation, and if you believe that the aesthetics of the Imagination must be redefined, then join us and together let us change the world not by war, nor by petty dictatorial control and political manipulation, but by showing the Dualistic Nature of the Universe and the Human Psyche, via the Arts, with hopes that it will contribute to the betterment of humanity and the spread of ideals for the betterment thereof.
