Re: FLUXLIST: Fluxlist Box
Hi all, To be honest I expected some sort of response to my post yesterday about the box. I got one reply offlist. I still want to know who did what if they didn't sign it. Are we still waiting for some people to receive their boxes before we talk about it? I thought I was one of the last to get mine, certainly the others in England have theirs and in mainland Europe too. Although Bernice hasn't got hers yet. Maybe we can discuss them anyway? Can anyone who hasn't yet received their box let me know. Thanks. Actually I got the box out again last night to look at. It's very like a mail art box project I participated in once...in that many boxes were made, one a month for a year. Each subsequent box responded to elements of the previous box. Maybe we could do that? Although not once a month. Maybe 2 a year? Realised that yesterday I should have thanked Owen for the time and trouble he took to assemble and mail all the boxes so thank you Owen :-) cheers, Sol.
RE: FLUXLIST: Fluxlist Box
hi sol and all, i didn't get my box yet. as i told owen before, if the turkish postal system works as usual, i might never get my box or at least get it late. so sad. you shouldn't wait for me at least to start discussing. i keep my mail anyway, i will join with my belated comments later on. in case i don't get my box (very very sad), will the items be exhibited on the web, in the i/eye-zone galleries for example? regards, ceyda

Re: FLUXLIST: Fluxlist Box
Hi all, Well thanks Ceyda and Bernice for responding I'm sorry that you haven't got your boxes yet. Mine took a while to arrive too..only got it at the end of last week...so it took a few weeks more than other boxes to the UK. Ceyda asks: >in case i don't get my box (very very sad), will the items be exhibited on the web, in the i/eye-zone galleries for example?< Well, I think Owen was planning to catalogue the items in the box for a CD catalogue of the box contents so if he's already photographed all the objects etc. this could be put on the web. Owen? If not I can photograph the box contents for the web, I agree that they should be online, especially so that those who didn't take part or joined the list after it had all happened can see what we did. You may remember that I said originally I would try and show the box. Well as I said yesterday I'm currently trying to get a stall for the London Artist's Book Fair in the autumn. If I get it I shall show the box there (the fair is in the Barbican Art Gallery in central London, unless the organisers are changing plans this year), apart from that I'm not too sure where else will be suitable. Also Owen only sent me one box so at the moment I'm not willing to send my only box for someone to show unless I can be sure that it is not damaged in transit etc. Perhaps the best thing is to show it on the web too. Really Owen needs to tell us how far he's got with the catalogue or I could just go ahead and set up some pages for it linked from the Eye Zone which seems appropriate. Owen, do let us know how far you've got with everything. Thanks. As for discussing the box: First of all some people who contributed to the box are no longer on the list. Rich J.Galpin and Joe Decie are no longer on and Adrian Glew was never on in the first place although he is the Fluxus archivist at the Tate Gallery in London and he was interested to contribute so.. Rich Galpin asked me to let him know about any box discussions so I shall pass on comments to him so if you wish to address a comment to him please do so and I shall pass it on. Similarly I'm sure that Roger wouldn't mind passing on comments addressed to Joe Decie (some of you may not know that Joe is Roger's step son). Okay, first of all if you didn't sign your work can you please say which piece was your, some unsigned ones I know already but it would be nice to make up a little list that I can include with my box for future reference to know who did what. That's the first task. The second task is harder because I think we should began to consider what we've achieved with the box. Is this the beginning of a series? Do we want to make another box in this way? Was this box a success? Did we achieve what we set out to do? I think the box took on a life of its own in some ways. It started as a plan to make a Fluxus box but the result isn't really a Fluxus box, in fact even just comparing it with photos of original Fluxboxes there are a number of differences...in fact I think this is a good thing and that perhaps originally we should have set out to explore the box form in our own way as oppose to planning to make a "Fluxus box". However I think the fact that we all worked together with a lot of discussion to agree on aspects of the box such as the label has led us to an interesting way of working as a group..surprisingly we all came to an agreement on most things quite easily...I had expected far more disagreement, especially about the name. So what else do we consider? The main thing I suppose is do we want to do another one: To give people who didn't get a chance to contribute to the first one a chance to contribute now and to work out what we can improve upon in the second one. Clearly there is one obvious improvement and that is the time factor..unfortunately various things have conspired to delay this first box..many of which were beyond Owen's or my controlhaving to wait 2 weeks for the labels to come in stock, Owen's family emergency etc. etc. I have some ideas about how we can produce these boxes quicker but I'll wait a while before sharing those. Okay, well I'd love to here people's comments. A lot of people must have had their boxes by now but only a few people have said anything about it. What about the others did you like it? Did you dislike it? If so why? Please be honest, I'm sure no-one will be offended if people are honest even if this involves criticism. As an artist one expects to have one's work examined in this way. Anyway I expect that most people will be interested to question each other about their pieces, motivations, choices of materials etc. It would be nice to explore the way each other works. Anyway, I've said enough. Let's hear from someone else who has received their box. cheers, Sol.

Sorry I didn't sign it--I was not thinking of attribution when I did it, sort of that the dice were their own author. But you're right--after receiving the box I realized it would be nice to have names to attach to things. Sol, your image is very charming! I write when stuck in the car; I've got a series of things called "In the Car: 1" and so on. The CD is quite extraordinary. I would like to know more background on it--who what when where why. Are Kathy Forer's beautiful little reliefs each unique? Or all they all elephants? I'm struck by the fact that the synchronic experience of the box elides the diachronicity of each series, to counterfeit a phrase-- My son's very favorite (of many favorites) is the stone/water experiment. He's a person of subtle wit. We plan on stamping any number of things w/ the official fluxmark. By the way, in stamp art news, did you know our most Wonderfully Absurd Governor, Jesse Ventura, vetos bills with the rubber stamp of a pig? (for pork, you know--is that expression current in the UK as well, pork for goverment projects of dubious necessity?) AK
Re: FLUXLIST: Fluxlist Box
Also, Sol, the label works very well, I think. My son carefully chose a name from all listed and wrote it in (Fluxedo is his choice). It struck me, seeing his response to the box (he's 10), that this would be an excellent pedagogical tool. I mean the construction of such boxes by a class, say. Roger, you work with kids, yes? What do you think? In the US there are these "artist in schools" programs and artists can get on rosters to be sent around to schools to work with kids for a week or so. Doing a box could be a great project, coupled with making of various kinds of multiples, prints, stamps, clay rollers, etc etc--and a good way to teach about art "outside the box" so to speak. AK
Re: FLUXLIST: Fluxlist Box
I'll go - I've had mine for a couple weeks now, and I am very pleased with the box. The quality of the contributed pieces is much higher than I expected. I like how it comes across as an activity kit, rather than simply an artifact, or a small collection of multiples. I too would like to know who did some of the unsigned pieces. My biggest amazement is how well all the pieces fit in the box together, especially since there wer no clearly definied size guidlines put forth. This is the best executed collaborative art thing I've had the pleasure to be involved with, and I think we should do more of them. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be Owen's map piece. Also I'd be curious to know if anyone is planning to perform or has performed any of the scores put in the box. Alex Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com

FLUXLIST: RE: Fluxlist Box
The box is amazing! All the people I've shown it to have been impressed and, dare I say, coveted it with a malicious gleam in their eyes. I have been thinking about having a display of it somewhere in town (Austin, Texas), just to have people look at it and touch it. I've been too lazy/busy to get around to organizing this. Laura Poll (of New Jersey?), sometime in the last 5 years, had a popcorn box project where she had people send in 100 things, and then everyone got a box (I assumed it was like a Crackerjack box). I was going to do this, but didn't. It would be interesting to see the differences between the two projects. I liked all of the 3D objects: I didn't think there would be that many. To be honest, I haven't looked at everything in the box yet, maybe when I'm displaying it and waiting for people to come and look at it... I plan on doing most of the projects in it. I don't want to rip open the plastic bag that contains all of the little performance scores! I will someday. I am going to listen to the other piece of magnetic tape in the box. So, when is the next box? -Josh Ronsen http://www.nd.org/jronsen
FLUXLIST: Chris Rowland - Fishion
New Media Scotland and The Collins Gallery present: Chris Rowland - Fishion 13 May to 10 June 2000, Collins Gallery, Glasgow http://www.mediascot.org/artlife/ A new interactive artwork, which takes the form of a shallow circular pool of water that can be approached from all sides. The surface of the water is continually rippling gently, its depth is imperceptible due to its colour. As the viewer approaches the pool a sequence of animated images are seen fleeting across the surface. The viewer looks into the pool and the images change, the viewers reflection mingles with animated reflections that cascade across the rippling water. Sometimes a face looks back, then a shoal of fish-like people swim just beneath the surface. The sky is reflected in the pool and the viewer can see the clouds form as a storm begins. The sound of the water changes depending on where the viewer stands or kneels. A voice can be heard telling a secret or offering a warning. The images and sound are different depending on the time of day that the viewer experiences the work. A lone viewer will see and hear something different to a group of three or four. 'Fishion' explores memory and secrets. The artist is using new computer graphics techniques to elicit responses from the viewer. The work is also concerned with humanity's attempts to organise or regiment nature. 'Fishion' creates an environment where the inhabitants seem to be waiting, only coming near as the viewer approaches them. The inhabitants apear to be composed from natural phenomenon such as smoke, water and fire. Chris acheived these effects using advanced computer animation systems and layers of digital video. A web cam will convey the experience on the New Media Scotland website. 'Fishion' is the first of ten Digital Art Commissions supported by New Media Scotland. Further commissions will occur across Scotland throughout the year.

I am responsible for the box's Stone and Water Game. I was a little hesitant about signing my name since the pieces should stand on their own merit/demerit despite the signature. But I confess, one of the first things I did with the box was draw up lists of the contents and the contributors and try to connect the two. I will try to post a longer message soon. Right now my mind is on fire. Your friend in Seattle Tom Grothus / Frank Function

FLUXLIST: Re: Fluxlist Box
1. I did the FLUXLIST rubber stamp. Had the rubber part made and then had to cut them out and mount them myself (on curtain-size dowel rods)...which is why they happen to have that homemade, "unprofessional" look. 2. I would love to work on a project like Ann describes. I've had a similar notion of putting together a Fluxus kit (with a blend of old and new Fluxus self-performance activities--contributed by a bunch of different people) that grade school teachers/art teachers could use to inspire Fluxus thinking and perceiving among their adolescent students. Using this as a springboard of examples for getting them to create/design/perform their own fluxus activities/boxes/projects could be the natural follow-through. Working through "artist in schools" programs seems like a genius way to do it, too. Although a lot of work, I think something like this could be really fun and make a real contribution...to raising the general level of creativity in the world. Not that I'm grandiose... >It struck me, seeing his response to the box (he's 10), that this would be >an excellent pedagogical tool. I mean the construction of >such boxes by a class, say.
