Josh, I think your criteria were right on. I am trying to chart my own works in terms of when they became "fluxy" and although Eric and some others may not accept them, Ken did. Several years before I met Ken my works were diparaged by janitors . In fact during my first one-person show at Kenyon College in 1968, some students drug and old piano in pieces up to the second floor gallery in the library. I was upset and asked the janitor why he left it in the show. He said he thought it was mine. The students also wrote in the guest book, "If Boyd didn't exist, someone would have invented him." and, "This stuff looks like someone puked on Easter Morning." Since that time I have learned to put up with abuse by fellow professors, non-art students and the like. I consider "Fluxy Enough" the standard of separating Phillistines from those who understand.-Don
