Dogma00
The '''dogma00''' manifesto was a "post-[[Luddite]]" guideline for making computer-based rhythm music. It was originally a parody of the [[Dogme 95]] manifesto, but soon evolved into a small cult of its own.

dogma00 was born in [[Finland]] somewhere around 1999. Some "dogma00 compatible" music was made during 2000&mdash;2003. 

== The dogma00 rules ==

(contracted; show full)

'''04.''' Human voices are not allowed. Speech created mechanically is allowed, but human speech (or singing) post-processed to sound mechanical is not allowed.

'''05.''' Using samples of [[
Compact_disc#Audio_format|CD quality]] is forbidden. The maximum resolution is [[8-bit|8 bits]] in 22 [[KHz]] [[frequency]].

'''06.''' The price of a single instrument or any other equipment used to create dogma00 music may not be more than 150 [[€]] ([[$]]150).

'''07.''' When performing, the artist is not allowed to draw the attention of the audience away from the machines in any way.

'''08.''' Smashing machines in public is highly recommended.

'''09.''' If a turn of the millennium occurs, the artist following dogma00 must assist those machines which don't automatically get troubles caused by "[[Y2K]]", "[[Y3K]]" or any similar phenomena. For example, filling a [[washing machine]] with stones will certainly cause it some kind of "crashing" problems after turning the centrifuge on.

'''0A.''' In the long run, the artist following the dogma00 is trying to get rid of communicating with human beings in traditional human ways. In the beginning, avoiding natural conversation, non-verbal gestures and touching other people is recommended. The goal is a situation, where the artist communicates only with machines in their native language.

'''0B.''' The artists don't exist as human beings anymore. An artist following dogma00 must take a synthetic name related to some synthetic function, machinery activity or computer communication. Examples: "[[Envelope Generator]]", "[[Cyclic_redundancy_check|CRC Check]]", "[[Refresh_rate|Screen Refresh]]", "[[Guru Meditation]]", etc... 

'''0C.''' The [[Public_relations|pr]]-photos taken of the artist following the dogma00 rules must be black and white [[telefax]]es in the lowest quality possible. The machines shown in a photo must be the main subject of the picture. If a human being can be seen in a dogma00 [[Public_relations|pr]]-photo, she/he must be connected to a machine somehow.

'''0D.''' When performing on TV, only black and white broadcasting is allowed for a dogma00 artist, no matter how big is the used [[broadcasting]] network]].

'''0E.''' If a dogma00 artist releases a video, it must be in [[VHS]] standard. Broadcast-quality formats are not allowed.

'''0F.''' A dogma00 internet website may not contain loads of graphics. One picture is allowed per page.
