Re: FLUXLIST: Fluxus: Dead or Alive
you have to be raal careful how you answer that one or else Fluxus dies in more ways than the Hegelian death of content and meaning. history, or historicity (if you prefer), is the number one killer of anything that can be labelled as a movement. so any definition of Fluxus, which is both necessary and dangerous to its very existence, better start out with some sort of loose collaboration of artists or some other escape from commodification and reduction. kraig.

Re: FLUXLIST: next breakout artist
i believe that that is andy milonakis... basically he's a 37 year old underdeveloped person or something. he has his own show on MTV where he basically acts like a twelve year old to old people. he has also been in several movies.

Re: FLUXLIST: FLUXLIS
there's also an issue of Visible Language dedicated entirely to Fluxus. there's an interview with john cage, an essay on proto-fluxus, and a ton of other stuff. when i did all my fluxus research i used dick higgins, hannah higgins, owen smith, there are some small essays you can find by nam june paik, and then lamonte young cause, while he wasn't very fluxus for long, i see him as extremely important to things people do even today.

FLUXLIST: my first official fluxus performance
as some of you may remember, i'm a junior in college up in NH and today is the very big undergraduate research conference which basically takes over the entire campus. i presented my research this morning at a symposium and this afternoon... actually in one hour i will be performing my Fluxpresentation (for two performers) which involves the same speech and a fluxinstrument of my creation with specific rules. i hope to post a few pictures on the blog later today. also of note, i really enjoyed the fluxassignment pictures on the blog. kraig.
Re: FLUXLIST: edition
i'm not gonna lie... i've almost purchased the Merzbox about 7 times and each time i manage to resist the temptation somehow. lately i've been wanting to buy An Anthology from LaMonte Young and the MELA foundation except it costs so damn much for a poor college student to purchase. Quoting Rod Stasick [EMAIL PROTECTED]: On 2006 Apr 28, at 4:08 AM, Kamen Nedev wrote: Hmmm, you have a point here. CDs suck. Period. The thing is, I'm not into CDs, I'm into the idea of publication, edition, or whatever you might call it. I don't care if it's a CD or a USB stick or a vinyl record, as long as I get this idea of an edition. In any case, for most of us, ephemeral netcasting and netlabels (or, as in your case, even our own resources) seem to be the most accessible path. well, you know...you go along with the formats in order to conduct the business of music. As they change, so do the needs of distribution channels. BUT when it comes to personal access, I've been increasingly interested in anything that has a deep time-bottom and doesn't have to be compiled in a linear manner. I'm surrounded by box/Bach sets that take the form of gargantuan proportions: 182 CDs of Bach...50 CDs of Merzbow...50 CDs of Klaus Schulze, etc. and just last week I got all squishy and excited when this explicated anthem from Prinzendorf that is the 51 disc Orgien Mysterien Theater (Orgies and Mysteries Theater) of Hermann Nitsch (of Viennese Aktionist fame) shows up with thick books/boots and poster. So I have to ask: why not just send me a small hard drive? The books/scores have a nicer feel than little slip covers around discs, but the sound could've been just as easily sent on a keychain harddrive. So, I think of a single Terrabyte for my work. The idea of making it one long work that uses 40 years of pieces dropped inside at various points. One of the things that I've learned and've appreciated during my studies with Stockhausen over these past few years is this idea of one large work (his Licht - 29 hours long) as a ground by which various smaller solo or group ensemble pieces can be extracted for performance. In my case, it's somewhat the reverse where individual pieces are interlaced into a whole that constantly/consistently grows. Need a solo 29 minute work? OK, let me play the part of the Metzgermeister and just slice some off for you. Would you like that wrapped? R --- Now playing: Paul Wilson - The Fall Cover Artwork: Are You Are Missing Winner
FLUXLIST: 3 poems created at 3 in the morning on april 3rd
iStream of Consciousness Hard-lined fevers hardwire disaster ?it?s gonna be alright? is what the toaster of Orpheus Said to the cow jumped over the godspeed! You fool, this is bat country Just wait till you see the egg whites on the table With this new shit-aku piece of crap-oshi You?ll not be amazed But dinner plates and dozers are not among those Hurt But still go away in the end The bottle? The brandy? The branded liver The questioning looks and the surety Of the knowing that this is what this is And that is exactly the problem Is all to which this amounts. ESES The sadness! The fury! The pianos burning brightly Singing psalmey songs of psalmic sages and singers Whose saturated sight see slews of serenity-breaking Satyrs staging stark esoteric scenes sort of about Sinews and statues and the state of Sanskrit In San Diego where turntables shift shiftily Shaking and shucking like corn on New Year?s That you never eat yet at which surely stare And all that you saw there was short of Saturday Though not far enough from Sunday.

Re: FLUXLIST: Fluxus message from mIEKAL aND
i sometimes wonder why technology can't deal with simple text in a uniform manner. allen's sonnet was a sonnet to me, yet not to him. one of my poems came back to me as one really big line, which it definitely isn't, and now i don't know whether mIEKAL's message is supposed to appear as it does for me in this reply email (just text), or is actually supposed to contain millions of question marks (which is both highly enjoyable and thoroughly taxing on my brain).
