Title: Re: FLUXLIST: FLUXUS AND THE PLASTIC ARTS
What’s said about ducks might help out here ... If something walks and quakes like a duck it is, in all probability, a duck ... or perhaps it could be a drake ... so if <SOMEthing> looks, sounds smells, tastes and/or feels like fluxus, in all probability, it is fluxus ..... or it could be <SOMETHINGfluxus>  masquerading as <SOMETHINGneoist> or visa versa ... then again it could be any number of things .... even <ZENzing> maybe? ...  in all probability, it’s much easier trying to work out if you’re a duck ... or a drake  ... or <SOMETHINGconcrete> ... than it might be trying to work out whether or not you’re fluxus ... the <HARDbit>, it seems, is knowing just exactly what fluxus looks, sounds smells, tastes and/or feels like

Ray ... from way out here at the <WORLDSedge> and the home of <ZENzing>

i still think we have to work on defining/redefining fluxus, at least to get a Fluxlist definition of Fluxus.



I think what makes Fluxus so dynamic and interesting to me is that there is no definition- I wish people would just accept that. The appealing idea is that Fluxus is inclusive. Artists spend most of their careers being rejected which is why Fluxus is so refreshing--or should I just go be a Neoist?? Dawg
