[quote]Shia LaBeouf is no stranger to curious uses of streaming video — this is the guy, after all, who livestreamed himself watching his entire filmography in reverse chronological order in 2015. But the Beef is taking his internet ambitions to new heights today with the launch of a caps-locked piece of performance art entitled HE WILL NOT DIVIDE US. It consists of a stationary webcam placed on an exterior wall of New York's Museum of the Moving Image, in front of which people are invited to place themselves and intone the words "he will not divide us." The footage will be broadcast live on the web at hewillnotdivide.us, and the piece will be in operation 24 hours a day for the duration of Donald Trump's time in office. Participants can say the phrase as many times as they want, for as long as they want — the idea is that it will become a "mantra" that "acts as a show of resistance or insistence, opposition or optimism, guided by the spirit of each individual participant and the community." Hey, every little bit counts.
The first participant, as it turned out, was none other than Jaden Smith! An anonymous tipster sent Vulture these on-the-scene photos of the kickoff, in which you can see LaBeouf sitting pensively against the wall.[/quote]

This will get abused so much.
A true performance artist, preparing the performance for the people to use

Explain
What a load of nonsense. Glad Shia is having a bit of fun though, I'm sure he's taking this half as serious as anyone else might at most.

I fucking love Shia
so can you say whatever you want or do they kick you off if you're not there to say 'he will not divide us' :v:
I give it a week.
Although, watching it will be interesting to see how long it takes before people [I]get over it.[/I]
On Trump building a wall : DO IT JUST DO IT

The perfect security tool.
To each his own I guess.
MOMI is legitimately my favorite museum ever, highly recommended.
Despite what you say about Shia Lebeouf, you have to admit he is good at entertaining.

This is kinda creepy
this kid in front thinks he's in ghost in the shell or something
Jaden has been standing there for the last 3 hours

If Shia Lebouf keeps bringing surrealism into real life, David Linch is going to have to step his game up to make shit even more surreal.

He said, posting on an internet video gaming forum between afterschool wank sessions while waiting for his mum to call his name for snackums. She was making Totino's pizza rolls today, his favourite.
this is a cool concept, hope it survives the 4 years
Nice to see the prophet himself Jaden Smith turn up.
`
man jaden's been there for a few hours now, what a trooper
[QUOTE=Primigenes;51700117]Can they really keep this up for a whole 4 years however?[/QUOTE]
I believe this is intended to be an "as you please" sort of thing. I can see it being used as a mouthpiece for more related events as well.
