FLUXLIST: Projet Rhizomes - Rhizomes Project
In the email today... Date: Tue, 29 Feb 2000 13:53:32 +0200 From: reynald drouhin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Organization: http://www.ensba.fr/rhizomes/ Subject: Projet Rhizomes - Rhizomes Project _R_H_I_Z_O_M_E_S_ Bonjour, Je vous recontacte aujourd'hui pour un nouveau projet on line intitulé : "rhizomes". _[english version below] Le rhizome n'est pas nouveau sur internet, mais ce projet est une tentative expérimentale d'oeuvre collective ephémère sur le web. Mode d'emploi : Pour réussir notre mission, il faut si vous l'acceptez que vous deveniez une partie de ce rhizome... Comment faire : _ devenir pour un temps hébergeur d'une image et de 2 fichiers html, _ me confirmer par mail que vous êtes d'accord (c'est à dire que vous acceptez de mettre une image dans votre site), _ je vous repond en vous envoyant l'image, _ vous me repondez en me donnant l'adresse de cette image sur internet, _ puis quand toutes les images seront distribuées (à 192 personnes), _ je vous envoie 2 fichiers html que vous mettrez dans le même répertoire que l'image (si possible nommé rhizomes), _ puis nous découvrirons ensemble la reconstitution de l'image rhizomatique... Explication : "Rhizomes" est un projet d'installation sur internet qui a débuté après la tempète de décembre 1999 en France. Début 2000 : un arbre remplissait l'espace de la cour du Mûrier des beaux-arts de Paris. "Le rhizome est un système accentré, non hiérarchique et non signifiant, sans Général, sans mémoire organisatrice ou automate central, uniquement défini par une circulation d'états." "Un rhizome ne commence et n'aboutit pas, il est toujours au milieu, entre les choses, inter-être, intermezzo. L'arbre est filiation, mais le rhizome est alliance, uniquement d'alliance. L'arbre impose le verbre "être", mais le rhizome a pour tissu la conjonction "et... et... et... ". Il y a dans cette conjonction assez de force pour secouer et déraciner le verbe être. (...) Entre les choses ne désigne pas une relation localisable qui va de l'une à l'autre et réciproquement, mais une direction perpendiculaire, un mouvement transversal qui les emporte l'une et l'autre, ruisseau sans début ni fin, qui ronge ses deux rives et prend de la vitesse au milieu." Gilles Deleuze et Félix Guattari : "Rhizome" in Mille plateaux. Une oeuvre éphémère sur internet... Infos complémentaire : durée_de_l'image : 00/00/00 ?

The concept of Rhizome is n't new on the internet : this project is an attempt to set up experimental and ephemeral collective work. Users guide : If you want take part in this project, you will have to be a member of the rhizome... _ to qualify for this, you have to host an image and 2 html files, _ If you agree, confirm it by sending me an e-mail, _ I will send you the image, _ Then you give me the adress of the folder in wich you have placed the image, _ I will send you the 2 html files place them in the same folder as the image, _ Finaly , piece by piece the rhizomatic image will be constructed by all its members... Explain : " the rhizome is a accentré, nonhierarchical system and not meaning, without Général, organizing memory or central automat, only defined by a circulation of states. " " a rhizome does not start and does not come to anything, it is always in the medium, between the things, inter-to be, intermezzo. The tree is filiation, but the rhizome is alliance, only of alliance. The tree forces the verbre " to be ", but the rhizome has as a fabric the conjunction " and... and... and... ". There is in this conjunction enough force to shake and to uproot the verb being (...) Between the things does not indicate a relation localisable which goes from the one to the other and reciprocally, but a perpendicular direction, a transverse movement which carries them one and the other, brook without beginning nor end, which corrodes its two banks and takes speed in the medium.

Re: FLUXLIST: passion for fashion
I don't see myself as having a "passion for fashion", but I do have two shirts that feature the name "Fluxus" (as a "brand name" - from top of shirt to bottom). One shirt has random imagery/text added at random times to random areas on the shirt while the other just features the "logo" alone. Compared to the ideas that I've heard here it's a rather boring idea, but, again: no "passion for fashion".Rod = http://rostasi.8m.com http://www.forcedexposure.com/artists/hunt.jerry.html Utilizing the blades of technology on the facial hair of imagination __ Do You Yahoo!?
