TARsuse! ... i WIILLL!! Now to your Qs: So far as I understand it BFI, IFB and even IFSEQ (Institute of Fluxus in South East Queensland) are one and the same but Ill stand corrected but the Institute concerned with FLUXUS is based in Brisbane _ perhaps its director might help you out here via the list; As for whos up that is a matter for the Institute Im mostly concerned with a dinner ingredient for 18/02/05 @ 7ish News will be forthcoming via updates onhttp://www.trevallyn.com/zF_story.htm (stuff there already) and Ill post other stuff to the list if there is ANYinterest; As for prestidigitatingFLUXTER that sort of thing is up to the Institute BUT its a GOODidea and perhaps it could be an international award with nominations being made via the list?? AND voting could even be via the list??

(doesn't seem like this was forwarded previously, apologies if it was ~m) From: Ben Vautier [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sun Feb 6, 2005 12:03:43 PM America/Chicago To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Newsletter Ben] FLUXUS Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] THIS IS A SMALL FLUXUS LETTER TO REMEMBER EMILY THE BRIDGE Emily built a beautiful bridge between down town Broadway and Venice and another between Venice and Nice Just like in a good science fiction movie you could get on the bridge from Gate One the last steps from her Broadway gallery and find yourself on Gate Two on top of the famous Venice Rialto bridge To build such a bridge you don't need stones or steel but details and moments and Emily was a specialist in accumulating moments words details observations To keep the bridge there we must just remember them So I remember Emily, she used to eat with us on the terrace in the sun and talk about ecology. I remember Emily with her funny little hats I remember Emily accepting a show of mine in N.Y. in witch I proposed to brake up America and give Alabama to the Senegal I remember Emily as a great organiser deciding when to live, what to show I remember an Emily who loved deciding I remember Emily falling in love for new born cats I remember Emily journeying with all the show in a suitcase I remember of an Emily a bit correct but a bit stingy On who pays for the drinks I remember Emily saying she came straight down from the Mayflower bunch I remember Emily talking about swimming in cold water I remember Emily et ses rires d'enfant I remember son émerveillement devant les genêts si parfumés de Pierrefeu (your turn all of you now to remember ) I remember SOME OTHER FLUXUS NEWS The project of a Fluxus meeting festival in Rue de Seine of Paris Is always on my mind Two or three gallerys are always eager to show the Fluxus works Problem : problem is time, energy, and work I am afraid of too much stress I am jealous of Ben Patterson journeying around the world taking the Transiberian. Hee never stops Knizac invited me to go to Pragues. Why not? Prague is a beautiful town and full of beautiful women I am afraid of drinking too much beer I saw a fantastic photo of WALTER Marchetti with a piano covered WITH fruits Everybody came to eat on the piano Michaud Has still remaining some edition of the Fluxus THROW AWAY PHOTO edition. Its a great piece. And cheap In Europe where ever you go you fall nos days on a John Armleder show - Swiss power. I Received a fantastic Fluxus open letter from Allen Bukoff, Michigan I will with his authorisation put it on the net on my Fluxus page In a few days. Go and read it its on the fluxus tongue http://www.ben-vautier.com/ The Fluxus room in Beaubourg show son et lumieres was with La Monte Young's room the best room in the show Charles Dreyfus is in Perpignan walking around In Genova (italy)George Brecht works are getting more and more expensive. Sometimes you wonder if they are just instruction cords or real works Passing by Milano I had a beautiful meal or spaghetti with Gino and Viviana and Gallery Depardieu shows Giuseppe Chiari in Nice (with Pedrini Collection) Fluxus artists don't stop doing shows, talks, concerts Erik Andersen is one of those I love receiving Jean Toche's letter witch I collect preciously Some day Somebody should compile all his letters together in a big box or book and send it to Bush as a present. Fluxus favorites at the Moderna Museet in Danmark In Nice, Brandi, Kristof and Bataillard play so insupportable badly that could be Fluxus I am interested in what I would call post Fluxus situation that is to say all this young artist full of ideas about life and art For instance Jean Mas, who is interested in showing a little (in french : P) Sometimes I call them attitude art Jacques Lizene de Liège is one of them I received a fantastic book by Gabor Toth. Full of his art limit ideas. I was quite jealous I am suppose to comment Fluxus'films of Paik and others at Beaubourg in a few days I don't know what really to say Maybe I just say that. Clavez in Paris is doing a god university job informing everybody In France about Fluxus. I feel sometimes he forget Nice but Nice was important. It would be find if he could bring out the book at a sometime Fluxus show in Rue de Seine in Paris Takako's joint work with George Brecht at a fair of Bologna was fantastic. Full of imperceptible details and had lots of sucess (lara vincy gallery) In France Berguez died. People don't know about him but he was very close to Fluxus sending mail art about life and sex Maciunas is becoming a myth. Daniella Palazzoli talks about meeting with him in New York in a epistolic way as if she met jesus Jacques Pinaud the artist has lost his memory it is his last Fluxus piece. In french I received this letter from Catherine his wife about him Jacques est très calme et serein. Il a souhaité avoir un réveil

Hi, have just managed to plough through inbox to clear backlog, Interesting stuff. I love the box thing sounds great and would love to be involved if possible. Is there any selection involved? How do I know if my work is suitably fluxy? As a new subscriber myself would be sad to lose others who want to subscribe to list, but impressed by integrity and seriousness of everyone involved in censorship issue. Things have become more interesting with something positive to focus on (the box). Liked the proposed guidelines for new subscribers and would also be interested in more info about existing subscribers. I know Im new here so maybe I shouldnt get involved, but was wondering if we could do a quick online version of flux box, with everyone e mailing a copy of their work to the list?

(CNN asks that you copy and e-mail this statement to whomever asks about it.) There is absolutely no truth to the information that is now distributed on the Internet that CNN used 10-year-old video when showing the celebrating of some Palestinians in East Jerusalem after the terror attacks in the U.S. The video was shot that day by a Reuters camera crew. CNN is a client of Reuters and like other clients, received the video and broadcast it. Reuters officials have publicly made the facts clear as well. The allegation is false. The source of the allegation has withdrawn it and apologized. It was started by a Brazilian student who now says he immediately posted a correction once he knew the information was not true. This is the statement by his university -- UNICAMP -- Universidad Estatal de Campinas-Brasil. Again, please read this -- and copy it -- and send it to anyone you know who may have the false information. Thank you. OFFICIAL STATEMENT by Universidad de Campinas-Brasil 17/09/01 UNICAMP (Universidad Estatal de Campinas-Brasil) would like to announce that it has no knowledge of a videotape from 1991, whose images supposedly aired on CNN showing Palestinians celebrating the terrorist attacks in the U.S. The tape was supposedly from 1991, and there were rumors that the images were passed off as current. This information was later denied, as soon as it proved false, by Márcio A. V. Carvalho, a student at UNICAMP. He approached the administration today, 17.09.2001, to clarify the following: -- the information he got, verbally, was that a professor from another institution (not from UNICAMP) had the tape; -- he sent the information to a discussion group e-mail list; -- many people from this list were interested in the subject and requested more details; -- he again contacted the person who first gave him the information and the person denied having the tape; -- the student immediately sent out a note clarifying what happened to the people from his e-mail list. The original message, however, was distributed all over the world, often with many distortions, including a falsified by-line article from the student. He affirms that a hacker attacked his domain. Several E-mails have been sent on his behalf and those dating from 15.09.2001 should be ignored. Among the distortions is the fact that UNICAMP would be analyzing the tape, which is absolutely false. The administration considers this alert definitive and will be careful to avoid new rumors.

Friday, May 4th a KOCH Progressive/Mi5 Recordings party will be held at the Stephan Gang Art gallery for May 4th 8:00 PM. Location is: Stephan Gang Art Gallery 522 West 20th between 10th and 11th 4th floor This is in celebration of Pop/Art/Music and Mi5/Koch Progressive to welcome the bands from the UK, Midge Ure, Jesus Jones, and those living stateside, Mercyside and the Blue Mockingbirds and master cellist Dave Eggers. It is a low key event. Mi5 Recordings, 6 NYU art graduates and Fluxus artists (the original New York, Yoko Ono/Lichenstein art movement) will supply the installations and art work. Members of the renown FLUX string quartet will be present and possibly will supply music, if I can iron out there differences (modern chamber music, and Bartok, Stravinski). There will be videos and art installations, and possibly an acoustic jam. Editors from Art in America and other prominent art journalists will be present. This is a welcoming party and is low key kind of BYOB thing. (Yes there will be alcohol!). The artists I have chosen are well known in New York but are young and up and coming. I would rather give new artists a space then those established in Soho and other areas. The link between art, pop music, and Britain is an important issue for us at Mi5 Recordings and KOCH Progressive, and I want to engage in this behavior ASAP!!!

First-- In joining any list, one is made aware of the rules and guidelines of the list. One enters into a contract with these in joining. Of course, with time and experience, one may find oneself disagreeing with the tenor and tenets of the list. This often happens. An interesting question would then be, how to work for a positive, constructive change, if one cares enough about the issues and events of the list--how to effect this--without resorting to "flaming" or to simply leaving and beginning a new list, which may incorporate those changes one sees fit and inviting others to join this. The bottom line is that one is aware from the outset of the guidelines, rules--and has entered into a contract of one's own volition. (Unless of course coerced by say, having to join it for a class or peer pressure etc) That said, the issue of the censored person--any question of censorship is disturbing. Two other lists I am on have had to deal with this--one decisively, according to its tenets, the other indecisevely, and the problem drags on. In that way, the flamer (as in "flaming asshole", often--: "he's a real flamer"--meaning this)--the flamer has accomplished her/his goal and made buffoons of the others. Eventually, this too leads to censorship, but in more hypocritical fashion. There is a Zen parable relating to this idea of "beating a dead horse": A master and his pupil are on a journey through mountainous and deeply forested country to an isolated temple. On the way, they encounter a a dangerous, rushing stream. A beautiful young woman stands at the edge of one side, with a heavy sack. She is afraid to cross, though she must. The master puts her atop his shoulders and carries her across. They part ways, she taking another path. Many miles and hours later, the pupil says to the master--"why did you pick up that woman? Isn't it against our vows?" The master replies: "I put the woman down at the edge of the stream. You have been carrying her ever since". As a child I often noticed the strange fact that very intelligent people often yearned to demonstrate their intelligence--whether it was of their own conception and self-proclamation or bolstered by "proofs" in the way of tests, grades, degrees and so on-- they yearned to prove this by argumentation. Rapidly, the principles and questions of the arguments were abandoned, and it became a clash of personalities. Victory would somehow prove not only intelligence but a certain kind of might. "Might makes right"--"the squeaky wheel gets the grease"-- And so one received one's first lessons in sophistry and rhetoric. Thinking of this question of "putting principles before personalities", came across an interesting quote from Kierkegaard, cited by the Surrealist painter Andre Masson in an essay called "Painting is a Wager" (written in 1941 and included in THEORIES OF MODERN ART Edited by Herschel Chipp. Berkeley: U Cal Press, 1968; 436-40. The Kierkegaard quote is appended as a note by Masson, p. 440). I think it applies well to the kind of arguments and such that employ mere power plays connected with personalities rather than an essay in the action of a generative questioning and understanding of actions, events, questions, examples--and lead to more thought and work rather than the excruciating noise of ever louder amplifiers, leading to demogogery and the like. (Demi-god-ery for example.) Kierkegaard: We must not take the word contradiction in the mistaken sense in which Hegel used it and which he made others and contradiction itself believe that it had a creative power. Though personally I often enjoy the "witz" as Bertrand calls them (jokes) and participate in them, I also, like Bertrand, joined the list hoping to find a continual learning and opening up of questions which are involved with the history and events and ideas and objects of Fluxus, and their relations with other art/performance questions. Also, one hopes to contribute to this-- The agreement or disagreement is not so important as what one may find--and be able to make use of! Which raises the old question of the artist/maker as thief-- or--speaking of wagers as Masson and someone on the list did--that famous wagerer Pascal's proposition that "it is not the elements that are new, but the order of their arrangement". Which bears on the question raised on the list of the constancy or not such of nature--the question entropy/negentropy. (Two good books on this are: ART AND ENTROPY by Rudolf Arnheim (U Cal P I forget the year, also the title I may have reversed--itmay be "Entropy and Art"), and ORDER OUT OF CHAOS by Ilya Prigogine and Isabelle

p, your brilliant retort has upped the self-loathing quota in my passive/aggressive behaviour. well said. it was not a personal attack on you at all (your posts are far better than most). just a general note about using this forum as conversation. there are many worse offenders than you, with considerably less to say. my inbox becomes clogged and i get frustrated, rifle off a complaint and then realize it sounds more harsh than i intend so add a pathetic disclaimer. if i could just learn to use those happy faces out of punctuation. truly sorry to have offended. dave (good revenge: had no idea review of godlessrenegade was online. 'twas years ago. awful review, and not 'cause they disliked the work (something i was not able to ascertain from the review) but because they use the word irregardless. ) At the risk of making enemies, I venture to say that as you, Dave, may have certain people whose posts you never both with, why don't you just add me to that list. Personally, I've always appreciated and enjoyed ddyment's posts, but find his repetitive passive/aggressive self-abasement/put downs a bit irksome.

Please take me off the list until August! This takes me 1/2 hour to download and I cannot select not to open it in this program. PLEASE PLEASEPLEASE! i think the above is closer to what i meant to say, rather than an attack on someone (still feelin' guilty about that). just that less is more.

A year later, he enrolled in night classes at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and also spent three years sketching and painting in Paris. Glackens and three other Philadelphia artist/journalistsJohn Sloan, George Luks, Everett Shinnwere attracted to New York City by their mentor, Robert Henri, who instilled in them an empathy for the city's immigrants, suffragettes, and others. Arthur B. Davies, Ernest Lawson, and Maurice Prendergast soon joined the group and became known as "The Eight". Their 1908 exhibition at the Macbeth Gallery in New York created a sensation. They had dared to depict the back alleys of New York, warts and all, and were henceforth called the Ash Can School. William Glackens: A Journey From Realism To Impressionism is curated by Jorge Santis of the Museum of Art, Fort Lauderdale, and the Queens Museum of Art curator William Valerio. Much of the work is on loan from the Glackens family bequest to the Museum of Art, Fort Lauderdale and includes notebooks and sketches not previously exhibited.

hello, i can't believe i'm getting into a fluxpissing match (and over something that could only possibly be of interest to subscribers in toronto...) the connection to fluxus and pop music is hardly weak - the two most influential bands in pop music had fluxus members in them! John Cale of the Velvets contributed a film of Police Car Lights to a Fluxfest and John Lennon contributed several works and attended festivals. Also their connections, respectively, to La Monte Young and Yoko Ono made for an even stronger connection/influence. sampling and cut-n-paste rock is the aural equivalent to visual collage and the essence of the Playing with Matches show. clearly it was also opportunism on the part of wayne b of plug in gallery, but who cares? the show has raised al hansens profile considerably, and that of fluxus and may get teenagers into art galleries. none of those are bad things when terrance said 'rock and roll is avant garde' he was being incredibly facetious. the affectation in his voice was clear. as for the panel defining fluxus - it wasn't supposed to and couldn't possibly! i have corresponded with most of the main (remaining) fluxus artists and very few still use the word to describe their work. fewer still can articulate what fluxus was (with the notable exceptions of dick higgins and ken friedman who both write well on the subject). yes, snow and sook yin lee spoke about their own work rather than defining fluxus. have you read these fluxlist digests? i've not read one that comes close to a defination but many talk about the contributors own projects. both the panel and the fluxlist are intended to start conversation, not be didactic or authorative. incidentally, most fluxus artists use the term event over happening. happenings were messier and included several actions (often improv) simultaneously. and event was a purer, simple gesture, like george brechts "exit". sure it's fun to break violins but the piece can not possibly have as much relevance as it once did. i was more interested in jean yoons discussion of yoko's mending pieces than in simply breaking things. or a woman who spoke of concretism and said she was still enjoying the piece an hour later because she could see the parts of the shattered violin. i should add that i am a fan of beck (not the current record or tour) and i thot some of his works for the al hansen show were decent enough, all things considered. i noticed a richard prince influence. i am also a sonic youth fan and an aquiantence of guitarist lee renaldo. i started him on his something else press bookshelf a few years back. their new record is excellent and the entire band are extemely devoted to the visual arts (as can be seen by their collaborations with mike kelly, gerhard richter, christian marclay, raymond pettibon, richard kern, etc). hope i haven't come across as an ass, here. can anyone tell me about albert fine? he is never well represented in fluxus histories but the few things of his i've seen are excellent. funny like ray johnson or ben vautier, i recall. -Original Message- From: joshua thorpe [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: February 9, 2000 8:27 PM Subject: Re: FLUXLIST: response to ddyment and open mouth thanks for the responses people! here are some thoughts --- also went to the toronto panel discussion and it was a little of a let down for me too... felt like things went all over the place. didn't leave me with a better understanding of fluxus:undefinable...? get the fluxus reader. dick higgins' writing is especially good. the panel was not an acceptable introduction to fluxus. and the connection of dada, fluxus and so on to pop music sampling is weak at best. (it seems like the power plant was merely trying to capitalise on beck's fame) yes, john cage set a huge precedent for pop music by making the first musique concrete piece and with all his work (and he had his influences too: cowell, varese, russolo, shoenberg). but the avant garde is NOT rock and roll. this is where terence failed in my opinion, however i did appreciate his genuine interest and effort, and thought he was certainly the best speaker and most familiar with the 'facts,' something i can't say for michael snow (whose film wavelength is wonderful). (by the way, terence said la monte young burned a violin but he didn't say it was actually a piece by richard maxfield, performed by la monte young.) also, i think the violin smashing piece is as wonderful today as when originally performed. an example of the kind of cross-over that i really like is sonic youth's recent album 'goodbye 20th century' this is the conflation of two cultural worlds, an honest negotiation of the high/low culture dichotomy, similar to a central concern of fluxus and dada: the art/life dichotomy. don't get me wrong, i like beck, i just think it's very commercial (and therefore anti-fluxus) to conclude that a blood ti
