Title: Re: FLUXLIST: Yoko Ono Piano Drop
Due the limitation of resources here I think I’ll just go with the “Urban Myth” until further notice

Dear Fluxlisters,

We passed the query about the Yoko Ono Piano Drop on to Ken Friedman. His
answer follows:

'The quickest way to learn more about Al Hansen's Yoko Ono Piano Drop is to
type the phrase "Yoko Ono Piano Drop" into Google for a web search. Use
quotation marks to ensure that the search engine seeks the entire phrase in
actual word order. The title pops up on many sites. Several sites explain
that Al Hansen retitled the work in the 1960s.'

He went on to say that he does not know whether these facts are correct.
Possible, he writes, 'this is simply an urban legend of the Internet
repeated endlessly from one site to the next.'

Mr. Friedman seems to believe that the title is credible enough.

Learning the exact answer would require some archival work or a query to the
Hansen estate or some careful book work in a properly equipped library. We
do not have the resources for more work. We hope this answers the question

Sincerely,

Secret Fluxus
