Thank you Don for your re-arranging of the 12 ideas...I think that works
nicely.

>Fluxus was an international art movement which began in Germany in the

and quickly spread to New York and northern European capitals. Similar
activities were taking place in Japan and California. The name was first
used by George Maciunas on an invitation to a 1961 lecture series in the
Gallery A/G in New York. Fluxus implies flow or change in several languages.

Roger, some of this isn't really very accurate and misses out a lot of
important points......I think things would be better left with just the 12
ideas to explain Fluxus.
Have a look at
http://www.fluxus.org/FLUXLIST/faq.htm#FLUXUS
to get an idea of how hard definition is in this way.
If someone who is reading the book is not familiar with Fluxus then the 12
ideas will give them a more accurate picture that an attempt at brief
history which is difficult at the best of times due to the nature of Fluxus.
cheers,
Sol.
