 Either 50 books with 50 pages by 50 people, 1 books

 ideally, 50 10-page books by 50 people. Like the 50
 fluxbox multiples.
 
 How would this cohere? Theme, story, size...

Hi ME and all,

I've still got all the recipes that were submitted for Fluxlist Cooks

of it

I'd forgotten about thatdo you have them in a digital format

FLUXLIST: 48th Int'l Video + Film Festival (Oberhausen Germany)

2002-04-16 Thread Crisarc2000

hello all,

just wanted to update you and give the heads up on a really great series of 
events coming up in 2 weeks:

http://cristine.org/events/oberhausen_updates.html

if any of you will be there, let me know--and email me or give me your cell 
number, so we can meet up at the festival--it will be my first time there (i 
will be one of the judges for the int'l competition for video + short film), 
so i'm excited to meet some new--and also familiar--
 faces ^_* off-list and in physical space!!!

it's the 48th int'l short film + video festival, in oberhausen germany (near 
cologne/dusseldorf),
there will be screenings of videos, short films, music videos from int'l pool 
of artists, plus there will be music, parties, dj'ing with DJ Spooky--that 
subliminal kid--who is in charge of the music this year...(!)

the special program will be Catastrophe, (Curated by: Florian Wüst), and 
includes videos + films by :

  --Marina Grzinic, Aina Smid (curated by Ursula
Biemann) 
  --Valie Export, Jonas Mekas, Tony Oursler, Sonic
Youth 
-curated by Keith Sanborn) 
  --Adbusters, Doug Aitken,Knut Asdam, Christoph
Draeger, Harun Farocki, George Lucas, Kristin Lucas, Ridley Scott (Curated 
by: Florian Wüst) 

[there is also a special--and this i am really
interested to see]:

   **Presentation and film screening by the
architects: MVRDV ** 

With videos Meta City/DataTown (1999), Pig City
(2001), and others.

Also there is special screening of Yugoslavian film maker Zelimir Zilnik 
whose films appear like a mirror of the political injustice and social plight 
plaguing day-to-day life in the Balkans.

And i am also really interested in how popular
culture, music creation, image making fuses and is
re-presented in the --Int'l Music Video competition--, with some cutting edge 
music videos, using digital imaging + software from places like China, 
Mexico, Iceland, France, Great Britain, USA, etc.

so again, if any one of you will be there, please
contact me, and say hello 

cheers!

The 48th International Short
Film  Video Festival
(Oberhausen, Germany)
May 2-7, 2002
IT'S
PARTY TIME AT OBERHAUSEN FILM FESTIVAL: Saturday, 4 May, 2002:
Featuring The Third Eye Foundation (UK) and
DJ
Spooky that Subliminal Kid (USA).
Directly from London and New York: Matt Elliott,
also known as The Third Eye Foundation, who created the music for last
year's award-winning Music Video Clip "What Is It With You", and Paul D.
Miller aka DJ Spooky that Subliminal Kid who put everybody in a spirited
mood in the festival lounge and who caused a sensation presenting his sound-video
performance in the festival cinema last year. This year they they are both
in
charge of the music at the short film festival's party.
SPECIAL
PROGRAMS AT OBERHAUSEN FILM FESTIVAL:
In 2002, the special program will be
"Catastrophe", (Curated by: Florian Wst) and will examine
images of catastrophe and how images regulate the ambivalence between attraction
and fear. The program will examine media representations of catastrophes,
their fabrication for political purposes as well as stories of disasters.
War, eco-disaster, terror, states of emergency or personal catastrophes
such as traumata, social blunders or simply missing the person you love:
"Catastrophe" will present individual survival strategies as well as utopian
and dystopian visions of the future:
Marina Grzinic, Aina Smid
(curated by Ursula Biemann)
Valie Export, Jonas Mekas,
Tony Oursler, Sonic Youth
(curated by Keith Sanborn)
Adbusters, Doug Aitken,Knut
Asdam, Christoph Draeger, Harun Farocki,
George Lucas, Kristin Lucas,
Ridley Scott (Curated by: Florian Wst)
**Presentation and film
screening by MVRDV **
With videos Meta City/DataTown (1999), Pig
City (2001), and others.
Special
Program: Specials: Zelimir Zilnik and Karpo Godina:
The Fight to Film:
Zelimir Zilnik's films appear like a mirror
of the political injustice and social plight plaguing day-to-day life in
the Balkans, a reality too often denied by officialdom. But Zilnik dared
to show us the true situation, in uncompromisingly authentic images and
uninhibited by any fear of political reprisals. Frequently forced to fight
against censorship and the banning of his films, Zilnik is one of the few
Yugoslavian directors who have been able to preserve their independence
in the face of ever-changing political regimes, and despite the recurring
problems of minimal budgets and political restrictions.
MuVi
International --Int'l Music Video program
For the fourth time the International Short
Film Festival Oberhausen presents a program with a selection of trend-setting
international music videos from 2000-2002. Taking account of the differences
in aesthetic approaches and formal language and regarding thematic tendencies,
the program was divided into four theme blocks: Double, Family Life, Dialysis
 Mutation, Agit P(r)op.

BUT  i love the idea and i'd really like to give it a go.  could we draw
pictures as well? eh? eh?

do we have to justify their fluxusness etc?
actually that would be tricky as a fairly sophisticated
knowledge/understanding of fluxus may be neede before we start
spoofing it.
i wonder if we could, collectively, decide on a set of criteria that the
characters have to meet.
e.g.  maciunas' 'fluxus art amusement' manifesto, or other well
know and generally accepted ideas.  this may be limiting but may
avoid problems arising with the 'what is fluxus?', fluxus doesn't
exist', 'fluxus is this!No it isn't it's THIS!' camps

Howza bout the Fluxus Tarot?  Could we get it together for 78 cards? My
guess is, uh...no. But,we could do the Major Arcana only, this would also
save a lot of discourse on suits (cups, coins, swords, rods).  Or we could
have the discourse, discard the discourse, and STILL only do the Major
Arcana.

Or, we could not.

Or, just after falling asleep reading Mind/Body Travel by John Somebody (I
put the book in the garbage eventually because it spooked me), I got a phone
call from a deeply recognized but unknown voice, saying, don't you know who
this is. It's John.


I once stepped on the head of the son of the Senator from New York.


Smoking not cigarettes, too young, I bumped into this very tall, imposing
man as I was exiting the kitchen from raiding the refrigerator. I felt even
smaller than I am and looked up to see a looming though bemused Leonard
Bernstein holding me by the shoulders, I suppose. I shook free and ran
upstairs.
