A live event that simulated networked, panoptic spaces by imposing a set of rules that tested group belonging and internal policing. Mediated through smartphones and Instagram Live, it unfolded in two acts: first, 37 performers wandered freely while continuously broadcasting themselves; then the audience was invited in—on the condition that they also went live. Those who refused were immediately surrounded and filmed, revealing how digital publics blur the boundaries between participation and submission, consent and control, and how authority quietly governs who is allowed to belong.
