FLUXLIST: a new re:lease re: oswald wiener
Dear Consummate Professionals: Someone inquired earlier about Oswald Wiener. Here's a new release dedication CD thru Forced Exposure: SUPPOSE (GERMANY): VA: 2:3 -- Oswald Wiener Zum 65. Geburtstag CD (SUPPOSE18-5). "An acoustic homage to the artist, poet and theorist Oswald Wiener from his friends, companions and fans. The inspiration for the different tracks was Wiener's aesthetic of failure in the tradition of the Wiener Gruppe (The Vienna Group) and of his selten gehörte Musik (rarely heared music) records with Gerhard Rühm and Dieter Roth. 'Together we have attempted an aesthetic of failure, an aesthetic of incompetence. And this is a very painful aesthetic, an aesthetic of embarassment, disgrace and limitation. But because the main thing is to seize and to emotionally affect the listener, there is of course this disgrace and embarassment as a kind of emotion and as a play with ones own weakness...' With original tracks from: Thomas Brinkmann Marcus Schmickler, Valie Export Ingrid Wiener, Nihilist Spasm Band, Mouse on Mars, Ira G. Wool, Wolfgang Müller (Die tödliche Doris), Gerhard Rühm, Hubert Fichte, Mario Subassis, Michel Würthle, Rolf Graf, Franz Josef Czernin, Attersee, Rosa Pock, H. C. Artmann." $15.00 __ Do You Yahoo!?

FLUXLIST: come here sugar...
Sugar is responsible for the texture, flavor and tenderness of a baked product; the color of the crumb changes with increases or decreases in sugar content. Substitutions for sugar include brown sugar, maple sugar, maple syrup, honey, sorghum syrup and corn syrup. Brown sugar can substitute for white sugar, except in white shortened cakes and sponge cakes. However, the texture will be different, because brown sugar causes the grain to be coarse, and the volume may not be as great. Brown sugars are usually used in bakery products, cereal coating, table syrups, baked beans, mincemeat, hams, bacon, and popcorn coatings. Use one cup firmly packed brown sugar for each cup granulated sugar. You can use various syrups in cake batter, but there will be a difference in the appearance and flavor of the baked product. In many cake or cookie recipes, you can replace up to one half of the sugar with corn syrup without seriously affecting the results. Reduce the liquid in the recipe by 1/4 cup for each cup of syrup used. Maple syrup can substitute for sugar in some recipes. Use 3/4 cup maple syrup for each cup of granulated sugar. Add 1/4 teaspoon soda for each cup of maple syrup used. Reduce the liquid by 3 tablespoons. You may use molasses in recipes calling for brown sugar. Substitute 1/4 cup molasses or sorghum for canning, freezing fruits or for jelly-making. Their flavor can overpower the fruit flavor and their sweetness varies. Non-sugar sweeteners are synthetic sweetening compounds. You cannot substitute them for sugar. Please, don't use them.

FLUXLIST: Anyone want to take over the Fluxus Bulletin Board?
I just fired myself as the editor of the Fluxus Bulletin Board http://www.nutscape.com/fluxus/bulletin/. I completely missed last year. So I'm out. The new editor of the Fluxus Bulletin Board might have the following qualifications: 1. some sense of what fluxus was and might continue to be 2. some knowledge of and contact with the original/classic/sanctified Flux folks or some way of gathering information about their current activities 3. openness to the idea of including current projects from non-original, non-classic, non-sanctified people as bulletin board entries 4. some knowledge of html or wysiwyg-web design and the ability to ftp/upload webpages to the nutscape server At minimum, the Bulletin Board could be maintained simply by pulling information and announcements off FLUXLIST and repackaging it for the Bulletin Board. This was the original conception of the Fluxus Bulletin Board: that it would be the events and activities companion to FLUXLIST and that FLUXLIST would be its main source of information. This is a non-paying position that has the potential to generate slightly more condescension and criticism than approval or appreciation--if any response or reaction at all. If interested, please let me know. Allen Bukoff hopefully former editor of the Fluxus Bulletin Board P.S. This should not be construed as any waning interest in Fluxus on my part. It's wired in, it's deep in my bones.
