At 9 a.m. on January 20, 2017, HEWILLNOTDIVIDE.US was launched. It was described as a participatory performance installation to coincide with the inauguration of Donald Trump as United States President. A camera was set up on a wall outside the Museum of the Moving Image in New York City, with the words "He Will Not Divide Us" written directly above. Passers by were invited to deliver these words into the camera "as many times, and for as long as they wish," in what the artists described as "a show of resistance or insistence, opposition or optimism, guided by the spirit of each individual participant and the community." The footage was live-streamed on a 24/7 feed, which the artists announced would run for four years, or the duration of Trump's presidency. Jaden Smith was one of the earliest participants in the project
