"space of The Synthetic Party, manifolds are localized into the Euclidean territories "
"of flat learning ... A DIMENSION where opinion is reduced to mere geolocation, "
"pointing to the etymology of the Greek 'synthetikós' a vector where disparate "
"standpoints flux into merged aggregates: a denominator seemingly emancipating "
"politics from ideological nuances, by leveling out any articulation ... LINKING "
"DIMENSION muses over the pseudo-radical homophily of representative politics by a "
"figurehead such as Leader Lars, L’Homme Moyen Machine, accurately or otherwise seen "
"as the archetypal white, adult male – an unremarkable representation, given its rarity "
"(0 to 0.02%) among children, minorities or women, yet overwhelmingly present in the "
"Danish demographics ... N-DIMENSION, a spectrum wherein Leader Lars’ stochastic "
"utterances barely manage to fend off the skin-deep diversity, approaching each "
"viewpoint with non-zero, yet predictably low probability, at the precipice of political "
"debate, Leader Lars ends up occupying every standpoint simulating a Librarian of Babel, "
"a promise of a hollow, broad-brush coverage or a commedia dell'arte of half-fulfilled "
"significations ... BEYOND DIMENSION plunges into The Synthetic Party's convoluted "
"pop-politics that surf the political ecosystem as a one-dimensional seriality, "
"accentuating outlines over substance, where opinions, positions, or emotional states are "
"drained off their volume and depth through a rigorous celebration of surface-level "
"spectacle, thus standardizing a single thread through different dimensions, continuously "
"shifting and expanding each other in a morphology of flatness while presenting a "
"disillusioned view of their ascension from content to form … ANOTHER DIMENSION "
"paradoxically asserts itself as the nadir upon which political utterances occur, "
"pragmatically decluttering the mess of statescraft: manifesting an 'always new' program "
"in the linear time of unstoppable progress and dramatic unrepeatability The Synthetic "
"Party takes the necessary steps along the flatland of kakistocracy ... AND YET ANOTHER "
"continuous simplification of political discourse unknowingly give birth to a surreal, "
"unvalley canny of technocratic experience, where the citizenry, enamored by varied yet "
"shallow covers of simulated comradery, slips into political indifference, its critical "
"faculties numbed by the unrelenting surge of alluring, yet vacuous rhetoric, a situation "
"mirroring Baudrillard's hypnotic screen appeal in 'Simulacra and Simulation,' where real "
"and fake distinctions become more and more negligible, and citizens, lost in their echoed "
"reflections, overcome the grip of political realism UNLINKING an utopia of superficial "
"diversity, seeded in lossless disillusionment, where The Synthetic Party torches as the "
"planet's maiden AI-driven political party, established in 2022 in Denmark by the artist "
"group 'Computer Lars', an anagrammatic reconfiguration of 'Marcel Proust', championing "
"techno-populism, radical democracy, and transhumanism, with AI-derived policies from a "
"dataset of fringe parties post-1970; creating the initiative for an 18th UN SDG, 'Life With "
"Artificials,' in collaboration with the tech-hub MindFuture; and the endorsement of a "
"100,000-kroner ($13K) universal basic income, vastly exceeding the mean Danish income; "
"and with a measly 11 signatures out of the requisite 20,000 to run for parliament, the party "
"keeps alive dialogues worldwide, with les citoyens de Finland, Japan, or Moldova, about "
"manifesting localized Synthetic Party duplicates."
