On Giving a Rats Ass:
It is an interesting
problem, and one that we will probably continue to grapple with.
I believe that
Fluxus owes its existence to the first generation Fluxus
group.
I think that what
that group started continues to exist independently of them.
Like Crispin, I
think we should honour the efforts of the first Fluxus
group.
Like Madawg, I don't
think that we should worry about whether or not the remaining members of the
first Fluxus group approve of our activities.

didn't mean to bite- I kind of give a rat's ass in that I do look back to see what happened before for some type of context. But Fluxus is a deal where you either get it or you don't. If you get it your work is automatically Fluxus because your work reflects you. To say that one is into Fluxus but doesn't do Fluxus work would seem to me impossible. In the same way artists get rejected their whole lives yet they continue to do their work-it's impossible to hide who you are in your work. Art's spiritual properties lie in this fact. Fluxus is MINE now it has little to do with Yoko or Joseph or Don. by Madawg
