Re: FLUXLIST: Josh Thorpe requesting VERY SHORT stories
Josh, here is my story, my favorite one about how I got into Fluxus via Ken Friedman; I picked up Ken Friedman at the Sioux Falls, South Dakota airport, April 5, 1975. He didn't say much on the 50 mile drive north to Brookings where I lived. As he walked into our kitchen he exclaimed, "Don, you're Fluxus!" He had seen pieces of leather tacked to my kitchen wall. -Don Boyd, 5-30-2003 _ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail

> also beware of Eric Andersen's take on Fluxus, right gang? -Don > >I think we should be wary of eric's take on fluxus via fluxlist. he was very scathing of the fluxlist, dismissing us a 'silly', this he said to me in person - he was also positive about some of the people involved in it. Eric's take on Fluxus away from the list should be considered* as a valid opinion - one of many, many, many opinions held about Fluxus by those involved, directly of indirectly in it. eric's take on fluxus is surely now of little relevance to the fluxlist as he's no longer with us. *please note that i say 'considered'!
FLUXLIST: new fluxus
last year when i was in new york (was it last year? chinatown, big hangover, not my usual sparkling wit, the allen bukoff endurance show ;-) ) emmett williams and rene block were discussing putting together a show of young artists who work in a fluxus related way, although if my memory serves me well the work Fluxus was not going to be used. has anyone heard anything more about this? Bertrand? i don't know if it got off the ground, but it would be interesting to see what william considered suitable. aallaann

RE: FLUXLIST: Name Games
I am Absent Tong, a failed air archaeologist and stunt pilot for the Avocado Cheese Company. My life finally came to have meaning when I discovered an affinity with intelligent mosskins, a symbiotic life form from the planet Tramafaldore. In order to appear normal I write poetry and talk to children in a meaningful but jolly way, occasionally throwing in jokes for their parents and teachers. However, the mosskins are coming for me on Thursday and I might be gone for some time. 149 to go

They did it, and that was the show in wiesbaden in september, where, in effect, they exhibited lots of young artists. Were those related to Fluxus or not, is another story... But I spoke a lot with Emmett about this project on various occasions, and he was delighted to play such a trick to his old pals! The funny stuff though, is that Emmett couldn't stand Ken's exhibition Young Fluxus, and still recalls it 15 years later... Bertrand

Re: FLUXLIST: NY CITY
Well, I had 105 messages but that doesn't even come close to the numbers our Roger is able to pull in. On the 4th I'm supposed to be closing on a split-level suburban nightmare house in West Orange, New Jersey (barring further catastrophes - as I was actually supposed to have closed today). This house will be the most expensive thing I've ever owned (and couldn't afford) aside from a very good pair of Italian leather boots (still have 'em) and my ex-husband (chucked him 7 years ago). I've also got to pack up 15 years worth of concentrated "stuff." An undertaking that has upped my nicotine and alcohol intake to the power of 10. In short (too late!) contact me again when you hit Jersey City and see if I'm still at all still functional.
