What Is A FlashMob? A FlashMob is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual action for a brief time, then quickly disperse. Flash Mobs began as a form of performance art. While they started as an apolitical act, flash mobs may share similarities to political demonstrations. Flash mobs can be seen as a specialized form of a smart mob, which is a term and concept by author Howard Rheingold in his 2002 book: Smart Mobs: The Next Social Revolution.
