Connexense Video Chat Community
- is where we escape that corporate storm of ads and influence, meeting authentic people in
Connexense Video Gallery. Undistracted by likes and subs and prompts for everything other than genuine human contact, we can mindfully build new and meaningful relationships.
The flow is:
Use the Video Workshop to make .mp4 videos which invite people to contact you.
Label, tag, describe and upload to My Videos. These appear in the Gallery.
You'll receive short, private, in-app video messages from people wishing to chat.
You can connect, decline or block as you wish.
Connexense discards all meta-data and does not keep copies of anything. All videos and messages are single-use only and can be deleted by the user.
No algorithmic influence
Videos in the Gallery may be sorted by date, alphabet and/or hashtag. There is no algorithmic influence pushing video posts up or down. Keeping it real, it actually takes some conscious effort to find interesting video posts and consider how to respond, and that's how we know responses are most likely sincere.
When posting videos to the Gallery, take care to title and describe them thoughtfully - you want to ellicit productive responses, right? Use "
#" to turn any word into a searchable hashtag.
When posting private video messages in response, remember that authenticity beats bs every time and that your email address is sent with your video message so it can be accepted as a new Contact or blocked from the recipient's account.

The social impact of visual communication:
Video Builds Trust and Empathy
Video calls capture the full spectrum of human communication. Research shows that 55% of communication is body language, 38% is tone of voice, and only 7% is actual words. Video calls are the only digital medium that captures all three layers, creating connections that feel genuinely human rather than mechanically transactional.
Seeing someone's face builds trust and empathy faster. When you look into someone's eyes, even through a screen, your brain triggers the same bonding response as in-person meetings. This visual connection releases oxytocin - the "bonding hormone" - while eliminating the misinterpretations and confusion that plague text and audio-only conversations.
Video calls create shared experiences and lasting memories. You're not just exchanging information - you're sharing moments. Whether it's seeing someone's living space, meeting their pet, or laughing together over a visual mishap, these spontaneous human moments create the stories and inside jokes that build genuine friendships.
Video calls are more efficient for building understanding. Facial expressions provide instant feedback on whether your message is landing as intended. You can immediately adjust your approach based on visual cues, preventing the endless back-and-forth clarifications that slow down other forms of communication.
Build Authentic Connections Online
Authentic online connections begin with intentional vulnerability and genuine curiosity about others. Real relationships form when people show up as their true selves—sharing struggles, passions, and everyday moments rather than just curated highlights.
This means moving beyond small talk and algorithmic suggestions to ask questions that matter and create space for honest conversations. When we approach digital interactions with the same openness we'd bring to meeting someone in person, technology becomes a bridge to meaningful connection.
