Alternatively, in the context of "Sus" (below), "Fe" could be a truncated echo of "Fe" as in "federation" or simply a two-letter grunt. But given the alchemical weight, we’ll treat —the iron skeleton upon which the rest is built. 2. SUS (Suspicious / Among Us) No modern internet lexicon is complete without "SUS." Popularized by the 2018 video game Among Us , "sus" is shorthand for "suspicious" or "suspect." It describes a player acting furtively, perhaps venting between rooms or faking a task.
Here are three concrete projects. Write a Python or Perl script that randomly recombines the syllables of the five words. Set the script to execute at 3:33 AM. Output the result to a printer with low ink. Title the resulting smudged paper: "Feeling-Suspecting-Neko-Scribing-Flux" . 2. A Short Game (Playable in Twine) Create a text-based interactive fiction game where the player is a Neko. The goal is to complete "tasks" on a spaceship (like Among Us ), but every action triggers a Fluxus instruction from a pop-up window labeled "The Script." Example: Player clicks "Fix Wiring." The Script says: "Success. Now delete the verb 'fix' from your vocabulary." 3. A Live Performance (IRL Fluxus) Invite three friends. Give each a mask: Iron Mask (FE), Suspicious Mask (SUS), Cat Mask (NEKO). You, the performer, hold a single piece of paper (the SCRIPT). On the paper is written: "For 10 minutes, attempt to follow these instructions: 1) The Iron cannot move. 2) The Suspicious must doubt every move. 3) The Cat must knock over one object per minute. 4) The Script must be torn up at 5 minutes. 5) Fluxus wins." FE SUS NEKO SCRIPT FLUXUS
Fluxus is the chemical catalyst in our keyword. It takes the iron logic of FE, the paranoia of SUS, the living chaos of NEKO, and the rigid control of SCRIPT—and dissolves them all into a state of perpetual becoming. Now, let us synthesize these elements into a coherent (if deliberately absurd) narrative. The Premise: A Game That Should Not Exist Imagine a video game that has never been officially coded. You find it on a dead forum from 2007, buried under a layer of corrupted image files. The title screen reads: FE SUS NEKO SCRIPT FLUXUS . Alternatively, in the context of "Sus" (below), "Fe"
Film the result. Upload with the hashtag #FESusNekoScriptFluxus. In the early 21st century, we suffer from a surplus of meaning and a deficit of nonsense. The internet has been optimized, categorized, and monetized. Every keyword is expected to drive conversions or page views. SUS (Suspicious / Among Us) No modern internet
So, here is your score, dear reader: Spend 15 minutes writing down what this phrase means to you. Then burn the paper. Then explain the smell of the smoke to a stranger. Do not repeat this instruction. That is the script. That is the suspicion. That is the cat. That is the iron.
Now go. Be suspicious. Be feline. Write the script. Then break it.
The string is one such anomaly. At first glance, it appears to be a random collection of morphemes scraped from a corrupted hard drive. But upon closer inspection, it reveals itself to be a fascinating collision of gamer slang, anime aesthetics, automated storytelling, and 20th-century avant-garde art movements.
