We study algebraic varieties that encode the kinematic data for $n$ massless
particles in $d$-dimensional spacetime subject to momentum conservation. Their
coordinates are spinor brackets, which we derive from the Clifford algebra
associated to the Lorentz group. This was proposed for $d=5$ in the recent
physics literature. Our kinematic varieties are given by polynomial constraints
on tensors with both symmetric and skew symmetric slices.
