Desde la colonización española (1536) empieza su historia de opresión, aculturación y usurpación de territorios. En la actualidad representan el 10% del total de habitantes de Chile (aprox. 1.500.000 hab.). En Argentina esta proporción es mucho menor. El gobierno chileno, en el marco de la globalización económica que prioriza la ley del dinero y beneficios por encima de todo, sigue destruyendo las relaciones de l@s mapuche con la tierra. En estos momentos, la empresa transnacional española ENDESA, lleva a cabo un megaproyecto hidroeléctrico en el río Bio Bio, que provocará la destrucción de la cultura mapuche, inundando las tierras, casas, cementerios y bosques de un centenar de familias de las comunidades indígenas. Desde el colectivo Marrichiweu y AutoEdiciones AnilinA denunciamos esta injusticia con el pueblo Mapuche- Pehuenche del Alto BioBio, y responsabilizamos el gobierno chileno y a Martín Villa, presidente de Endesa España como causantes directos de esta agresión. Llamamos a tod@s l@s artistas, estudiantes, colectivos, organizaciones y personas que se sientan motivad@s para expresarse en contra de la violencia del neoliberalismo que extermina al pueblo mapuche.

They are mainly located in South Chile and Argentina. From the Spanish Colonisation (1536), there begins their story about oppression, acculturation and lands usurpation. At the moment, they represent 10% of the population in Chile (aprox. 1.500.000 Hab.). In Argentina, this number is much lesser. The Chile government, in the times of economical globalisation that gives priority to money and profits above all, goes on destroying the natural links between mapuche people and the earth. En these moments, the Spanish transnational enterprise ENDESA is carrying out a hydroelectric megaproject in Bio Bio River. It will cause the mapuche culture destruction and it will cover with water all lands, woods, cemeteries and houses where live a hundred of families. From our association, Marrichiweu Group, and AutoEdiciones AnilinA we denounce this unfair situation in Mapuche-Pehuenche lands from the Alto Bio Bio, and we want to make the Chile government and Martín Villa (who is the president of Endesa España) responsible. They both are the direct casuists of this aggression. We call to all artists, students, organizations, collectives and people around the world that feel they want to express their repugnance on the violence of the neoliberalism that extermines mapuche.

Can use acetone to do the transfers from xeroxes--so xerox images from newspaper etc and then transfer w/ acetone, a relatively benign solvent (much less deadly than some others).

Re: FLUXLIST: performance score/making transfers (very useful)
dear ak: my gawd! many THANKS for your info! does indeed turn out BY CHANCE (?--"meant to be")-- do have huge lovely metal can of acetone here still "bran-nu" as never opened can't recall why have it may be like abt 85% or so of my work materials "found" "while in the line of duty"--i.e. walking abt or at a sale of art supplies figured some day of use --and NOW IS! have found though for my purposes--ie. love of the corroded, cracked, fragmented, "if it's broke don't fix it"-- (much like myself any more) that much like effects though "poor" (arte povera/art brut?) of the old method--makes interesting forms/traces of words/worlds so--shall "sally forth" (always wondered who she is) and try acetone! funny you look at it and is: ace tone sounds like a Fifties rock and roll singer but say it is "ass-ah-tone" "adventures with language" as old school books wd call it! again many many thanks! yet another thing of use in the world!

Re: FLUXLIST: alison knowles
this book from Granary arrived on my doorstep today --- Footnotes: collage journal 30 years Patricia -- it fits in so well to the idea of the time pieces! torn from 5x7 notebooks and taped onto a larger page, the tape itself now "highlighted" one way or the other as arranged, "an artistic artifice as well as an homage to Diter Rot and his SEP book 246 Little Clouds" everyother page has one of these notebook pages, with facing page/text of poetic notations, sometimes quite minimalist or sounding like mini scores for performance the pieces have the quick at-the-scene feel of Dave Baptiste Chirot's pages for the fluxlist timepiece, giving the sense that almost you are watching thoughts/impressions as they appear blur and disappear, ideas nearly wiggling as they become visual in pencilled scribbles, mind in action introduction by JRothenberg is good, ending with AK quote "It is important to remember that we are free to make art and poetry out of anything: a loaf of bread, some beans, a hasty jotting on the train." I ordered the Footnotes not having seen a page, just so hopeful that it'd touch my obsessions with calendars/days/collage/found poetry and I love it. I'm sorry I can't do a more appropriately articulate review - now I have to go spend some time with this book! NBB
Re: FLUXLIST: Tired of Fluxus?
Do you do anything on this list besides trash Ken Friedman? Sincerely. I'm curious. Or art for that matter? Are you still making art? Seems you have a lot of time on your hands, to be so dedicated to trashing Ken Friedman. I'm more fluxus than you or ken. My name is eryk salvaggio. I am sick of people who do nothing but bitch and moan all day. -e. Eric Andersen wrote: One of the problems with the Fluxlist is that it is so much based on mythology and ignorance. E.g Bertrand wrote: "The ridiculous way that Eric Andersen still say that Ken Friedman came to late to be a truly Fluxus artist." I never said that. What I did was to inform the list that none of the artists initially associated with Fluxus ever saw Ken Friedman as an artist. To us he seemed to be an agent and promoter. And that most of us would have preferred that he promoted something else. Also with some satire I pointed to the fact that he claims to have made Fluxus work i 1956, being 6 years old and 6 years before the first festivals in 1962. Be kind enough to quote me correctly.

Re: FLUXLIST: alison knowles
NB, An erudite and visual review it is - well done!!! In fact, so compelling a review, I have just interrupted this post to whip out the well rubbed Visa card and order it. Add to your timepiece reference the fact that I have been collecting feet fotos for a feetsheet, and, voila - kismet - karma. Whatever. Also, I am admittedly an Alison Knowles groupie. On the timepiece reference, Count Vladimir de Mews Russian Blue has chosen Roger "Radio" Stevens as the next victim, and I shall begin manipulation on him this very weekend. I mean, embellishments to his visage (she said, chortling and rubbing her hands with glee).

Re: FLUXLIST: Tired of Fluxus?
Good point. What are you up to, artwise or fluxwise, Eric? Btw, what is your definition of fluxus? I'm collecting these (definitions).

Re: FLUXLIST: performance score/making transfers (very useful)
Interesting, I viewed a televised special on the recent Rauchenberg exhibit and commmitted to memory the fact that they taped him making monoprints on wet watercolor paper from an inkjet print. It's in the P.K. memory but I have yet to try it. I've done the acetone method, but I have developed an aversion to chemicals, so, if I use chemicals for any type of process, I use them outdoors. Re the timepiece work - Dave, I was disappointed that the texture of your pieces was lost in the scan process, but I like the different dimension it brings through the loss of dimension, if that makes any sense. This digital/internet business has no end of visual fascination. Btw, I will send them back to you, honest.

Re: FLUXLIST: Tristram Shandy
shore begins at the end of my garden. Yes Bretany is great. Corse is nice too ;-) U populu corsu.. Is there some place in the US, which is called like Lands End (in Cornwall) or Finisterre ? To be honest, I have to confess that I'm not in the Finisterre, but in the very beginning of the Bretagne, in Saint Nazaire (where there is a huge U-Boots Blockhaus left by the german in WWII: maybe one of my favorite place I never saw this, but a lot of the coast is covered by WWII architecture, in the summer rented to poor people, rather cheap holyday houses. In the Institut Francais, it was called monstrous, well, another story, but I think I wrote allready about this at Plogoff etc.. Maybe surrealistic, Best, H. in France).

FLUXLIST: artistic community experiment
The art may not be that good, but the community web tech is cool, I think. http://www.kuro5hin.org/?op=displaystory;sid=2000/9/19/2458/13427 collective art (Media) Posted by luap on Tue Sep 19th, 2000 at 09:27:27 AM EST I've begun an experiment in my free time. I want to see if I can create an online artistic community with people posting their own works as well as commenting on others, sort of a method for writers/poets to get their word out and maybe even make money bypassing the publisher. Can it be done? Will the produced fiction/art be more/less real? I haven't really seen the 'slashdot' for literature out there yet. Instead of using one of the OS solutions out there for community type sites, I've decided to program my own (php4 w/MySQL backend.) I'll be honest with you, though, in that I'm an English/Journalism major, a poet at heart. I've been fascinated with the web since '95 or so, recently delving into scripting with PERL and php. (Creating art, but in another language, that of the computer.) So... I guess I'm just looking for feedback on the concept and execution of open source literature. Thoughts/Suggestions/Comments appreciated...
Re: FLUXLIST: response to Bertrand
Bertrand What do you think of Postface/JB as a history of Fluxus? What do you think of Dick Higgins' theater pieces? What about the "Danger Music" series- interesting? RA Bertrand et Claudia CLAVEZ wrote: Reed Altemus wrote How about: yes, I have several books by Something Else: Anthology of Concrete Poetry, Annotated Topography of Chance, FOEW, and Jefferson's Birthday/Postface. I have just finished reading all of them, anyone else read any of these and would like to start a discussion about any of them? Reed I own myself some others: Games at the Cedilla, a primer of Happenings, Four suits, and some of the one you have (FOEW, Jefferson's birthday). My edition of annotated topography of chance is a french one (I think it's from Lebeer Hossman ed., so it's belgian, like my "ample food"). And yes, I would like to start a discussion about any of them (and particularly Postface, who is fascinating me) Bertrand
