Sure. Sounds like fun. Perhaps I'll do a nondigital version? drawings, maybe, or a 
thought
about a particular topic revisited every day--I'll tune something up. Hey, maybe a 
record of
my progress learning a new piano thing? O god no, that would be painful.

Charming notion. Someday I do want to do a weekly photo for a year of a certain tree, 
an ash,
on the shoreline that I can see from my front steps. But that's for another year.

Onward, into temporality made conscious!

Re: FLUXLIST: Trial by e-jury

[ann klefstad]

Not current ones. She did a show at St. Norbert in Winnepeg, Manitoba, a year or
so ago. There were images on the web then. She did a thing called Monstrance
(which translates as a reliquary that you can see into, one with a window) where
she put tiny photos of herself into rabbit carcasses that she then placed in a
grove of trees. The decay process eventually exposed the photos. This was coupled
with a bunch of stuffed bunnies that contained little rabbit relics. It seemed
like an interesting intersection of imagery, the daily, real time, etc

Why are you shuddering at being called someone who takes photographs?

Out in the desert a few years ago; bright, hot day; suddenly, a shadow

triangle which suddenly accelerates and literally disappears; then, I
heard the sound of its engines.

I am trying to reply here, but I can't stop laughing.  It's making my fingers
funny.  Don't worry, be happy, the doctor has his credentials through Fluxus.
Yet, if you want to document a doctor, or viagra, what the hell, just quite
banging your head, it's got so many writings that I want to read.

Anyway, to share my time travel lately.  I put the Ray Johnson CD from the
Lightworks publication  in my car, before reading the publication.  I listened
to it driving back from San Francisco Saturday night (almost started
hallucinating), and have had it on the cd player on various errands, and it is
definitely putting me in another time zone. It's great - I go into the
supermarket, and it's a freaking performance piece!!!

I'm glad you're out of the freezer, it was getting crowded in there.  : )

Re: FLUXLIST: Time pieces ...

[Bertrand et Claudia CLAVEZ]

I also think of Roman Opalka, who is making his 1- infinite, 1965, which is
a continuous counting work, started by one, two, three, four, five etc. ad
infinitum. He writes the numbers in write with oil on  black painted
canvases, and each time he ends with a canvas, he shoots a photo
selfportraict, always with the same frame. This picture is to be exhibited
with the painting. It's a great meditative work I like very much.
Since the 70's, he adds one per cent of white in the black he uses for the
bottom of the painting, each time he changes of canvas. Though, the numbers
written ( he has reached the billions I think) progressively disappear in
the painting which is becoming clearer and clearer...And you can see the
death at work on his face all those 35 years of countless counting.

Getting serious here, getting serious...(and, believe me that's
hard to do)

If any of you are interested in doing this, July 10-31, every
day, one item, event, thought, over and over, every day, record
the change or nonchange.  I have a friend who will put them
online as a time project.  He is a doctor.  Every day, mind you,
takes discipline.  Who wants to participate?

I've always liked the time piece in the film "Smoke" where Harvey Kietel
places his tripod/camera at the same spot in front of his shop every day
at the same time and takes a photograph.

This might be a great fluxlist group project.  Well, maybe not for a
year, but for a month...photographing something every day (in a small
way, maybe i-zone to conserve space) or small drawings or paintings, and
compiling them for a specific time...a Fluxlist Month, or whatever.

Hi all,

I'm now at home with access to my references.

The Tom Philips project I mentioned earlier is called "20 Sites n years".

>From 1964 onwards he has consistently photographed 20 sites local to where
he lives in South London. He has even begun to involve his son in the
project as of a few years ago in the hope that his son will continue to
photograph the sites and the project will continue indefinitely. His own
words on the project are:

"Of all my work this humdrum epic is the one that affords me most delight".

Hello Fluxlist Friends,

Last night, while waiting for something to print at a copy shop, I used
their typewriter to write an improvised short, short, short story. I will
mail it, the only copy in existence, to the first person who emails me. The
story involves Aldous Huxley, death, Cleveland, and at least one person's
chin gets rubbed.

Every day for a year I would walk up to the Halifax citadel/fort and
silently film the discharging of the noon-day gun/cannon. The retired
legionnaire who fired-it would often see me coming and set-it-off early.

I once took photos of the sky looking up over the rooftops from my front
porch everyday for a couple of months. When I showed them in a slide show
people couldn't believe how beautiful the changing weather was.

Re: FLUXLIST: Time pieces ...

In a different way, Monet did something similar in his studies of
cathedrals and lilies at different times of day, weather--documenting the
energy and life of light on the objects which generate its appearnce--
by being attentive to the same object from the same viewpoint


also Cezanne, returning continually to his mountain--
His "motif"--

the writer Clark Coolidge in THE CRYSTAL TEXT produces a book made
of daily meditations and encounters with language which emerge from an
acute attention to a single crystal placed on his writing desk.

The scene in THE AMERICAN FRIEND--I think that Hopper charcter is
tryng to document him"self" pysically in a sense to try to find by his
outward "being" "expressions" some manifestation of a "self" which he
senses desperately is "empty".

 "Seeing is believing"--"documentary proof"--


one cd also minutely alter, with each documentation, the site, for
the project suggested here

these wd be so minimal it wd take some time to be aware of!

but in a way that is the same thing as the daily accululation of
dust!
or--the cycylical existence of dumpstrs: filling up slowly, then
more frantically piled and tottering--them emptied out--and so over again
and again (unless there is a strike!)

--Godard claimed that cinema is "truth 24 frames second"

--Cocteau said that cinema "films death at work"

Nice to see the act of perforation. I've heard about, but never seen, one of
those machines before. In fact I used to think it would be cool to have a
perforator but I now realise that you need a very big space to house it.

Thanks for a view of the process, Patricia.

cheers,

Sol.

This might be a great fluxlist group project.  Well, maybe not for a
year, but for a month...photographing something every day (in a small
way, maybe i-zone to conserve space) or small drawings or paintings, and
compiling them for a specific time...a Fluxlist Month, or whatever<

Tom Philips has done a similar thing for many years now photographing the
same street corner in South London (unfortunately Ican't remember what the
interval of the photographs is). His concern is to document the change of
that corner...shops come and go, buildings change etc.

I haven't seen the film "Smoke".

My favourite photography scene in a film is in Wim Wenders' "The American
Friend" where a bored Dennis Hopper takes polaroids of himself whilst lying
on his pool table.

cheers,

Sol.
