Re: FLUXLIST: Seven Telephonic Events
Back to eschatological chic and obscene phone calls? Try telephony. Simile. Fluxus is watching you. But, really, what, exactly is a cosmic..oh, never mind. Metaphorically speaking.

Umm, many of our primitive impulses were repressed way before bourgeois culture. Bourgeois cultures is just honing the repression to an artform. BP

Re: FLUXLIST: I am Will-we are Fluxedo Junction
Hullo Will, Good that your living box has flowers, they can really brighten one's day. Nice name, Fluxedo Junction, and I like the ethereal ambiguity of your manifesto : ) I can stand, can sometimes look important and I be dancin' most every day, will participate in your next performance gladly, but will have to do it from California-by-the-other-sea. Just let me know the date, time, theme, script, direction to stand in, or whatever. But, you first will have to get permission for me to do so from my controlling entity, the mystic eye. http://www.googleplex.com Bests, PK [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: My Name is: Will I Live in a : Box with some flowers Location?:sadly,Long Island,New York Occupation:Committing heinous crimes of DISONNANCE!

Re: FLUXLIST: Re: FLUXLIST-digest V1 #357
De : CHAMPOY [EMAIL PROTECTED] i'm trying to make artworks out of my feces by trying to eat different kinds of foods and drinking some edible coloringsany suggestions what other kinds of food that i might eat to produce such a very interesting effect on my feces. -champoy hate You should ask to Jaques Lizenne, a belgian artist, pope of deceptive art, who is doing exactly the same work for about twenty five years now. I'm also thinking to a french painter, now dead, called Gérard Gasiorowski, who, through thirty years of research on the possibility for the painting to survive in a death-of-the-painting-era, passed through a phase where he sought to be he own tube of paint. He produced at the end of the seventies, a great serie of "juices", figurative and primitive shit-paintings on paper, and another serie he called the "pies", which were some pies cooked in hoven, made out of his proper shit and aromatic herbs of Provence.

Re: FLUXLIST: Re: trial [freedom from transgression]
- Message d'origine - De : David Baptiste Chirot [EMAIL PROTECTED] She recounts walking with Picasso thrugh the streets of war time Paris (First World War) and seeing camouflaged tanks-- "we have already done that" Picasso says--in reference to Cubism. Likewise Marinetti's Futurist Manifesto (1909) and other manifestos, works and actions of Italian Futurism preceded their appearance as military forms, actions--deaths--in the First World War. I'd add that the french army did asked to modern painters, amongst whom happened to be cubists painters, like André Mare, to work on the camouflage of the tanks, and to conceive them in the "camouflage section" of the Artillery corp as soon as the very beginning of 1915. On this subject, see the "camouflages" exhibition of 1997 in the Historial de la Grande Guerre of Peronne. Avant-garde IS a military term, but cubists were modern painters... not exactly the same world, isn't it?. Bertrand.

In "Bluebeard" by kirt Vonagunt, The main character, Raboo Karabekien (or there abouts) was in a platoon of artists that worked to camouflage tanks and trucks and such.
