i never know which al(l)an people are replying to nowadays, it was so much
easier when we were three!
a lot of fluxus work, be it text, performance or 'object' dealt with the
'everyday', things we often take forgranted.
george brecht's 'drip music' for example can be an instruction, a performance
or a 'sculpture' or a combination of these and/or other factors.
here there is an interesting area to explore. the 'open to interpretation'
aspect of many fluxus pieces allows us to produce 3d objects, actions and even
environments from written 'scores' and essentially the same should be true if
we go vice versa - this being more up to the viewer than the artist however.
you HAVE to admit that i am holding this together remarkable well considering
.....
i am writing this with one eye closed! (grassie a vat69!)
the danger is that when we talk about fluxus we have in our heads only the work
of a small few of the artists involved with maciunas' ideas.
as artists who were and are not for obvious reasons, involved with
maciunas,<perhaps a new set of interpretablelbleble werks, sit you hay suns,
kneed to be thrust forth, fifth and sixth to the seventhfront.
hic, burp and may the great gods of valhalla protect Class 4 tomorrow for the
half arsed maths lesson they will surely recieve!
