A mental performance on Facebook in which the author describes opening a separate account to its audience and treating their activity as part of the project. Oskar Chmioła presents it as a reiteration of “InwigilAkcja” from the 2014 triptych “nie-post-szerzenie”. The full account, illustration and recorded profile address are preserved. The distinct accounts and conflicting start dates are explicitly identified.

A mental performance on Facebook, in which I share the login and password for my Facebook profile.
“As of 01.07.2024, the ‘Oskar Chmiola’ account becomes part of an art project. Notice is given that from this date the account is made available to its audience, who become its creators. In 2014, during the 10th inSpiracje art festival, at the exhibition ‘Perfidia Perfearance IV’, Chmioła performed the performance triptych ‘nie-post-szerzenie’, whose final element was the action ‘InwigilAkcja’. Now, after 10 years, Chmioła repeats InwigilAkcja on an account prepared specifically for this purpose, because he uses the previous account for professional purposes. What is ‘inwigilakcja’? The password to this account has been made public! From now on, the project currently named ‘Oskar Chmiola (project)’ becomes a project of the audience themselves. Chmioła will never log into this account!
All activity on Facebook — shares, information, data, photographs, messages, comments, views, notes, films, likes and any other activity on this account — forms part of this project. Chmioła bears no responsibility for the consequences of this action, because he is not its owner; Facebook is.”
