FLUXUS.GRAM is an Instagram-based curatorial experiment and artistic offshoot of the research project Activating Fluxus. It gathers a growing collection of historical and contemporary Fluxus and Fluxus-inspired scores—concise, often playful instructions for performances, objects, and situations—inviting participation rather than passive viewing.
Artists, makers, and the simply curious are invited to interpret, activate, or reinvent these scores. Selected responses are shared online, forming a living, ever-evolving archive of Fluxus-inspired practice today.
Through these activations, FLUXUS.GRAM asks what Fluxus can mean now—bridging art and everyday life, re-reading and re-imagining its legacy across new media, and keeping its spirit vibrantly in motion.
How it works
We collect scores through OPEN CALLS and invitations. You can:
- Submit a score you’ve written—a concise instruction for an action, performance, object or installation
- Activate a score from our Instagram feed in your own way—reinterpret, reimagine or restage it.
- Document your response with a photo, short video (up to 60 seconds), or a brief written reflection and share it with us.
