FLUXLIST: Piano Drop
Title: Piano Drop Hi! As a consequence of the celebration of worldSILLYweek out here at the edge we have been given a piano to drop from a great height. Curiously the donor kind of new about Al Hansens Yoko Ono Piano Drop but not the names etc. We are contemplating doing a kind of piano drop as a grand finale worldSILLYweek. Thus I would appreciate advice as to how we might go about it. There are no 5 story buildings to be had out here at the edge, let alone bombed-out ones, so we a looking to get a helicopter for the drop if not a crane . If we can get both we will use both and there is a chance that we may. All contributions to do with how we might do an authentic drop out here would be much appreciated. As a matter of interest, or disinterest, whatever the case today is FOOLISHfriday the first day of worldSILLYweek and we plan to do the drop at 11: 11 AM on DEADmonday June 28 the last day of worldSILLYweek. On DEADmonday you are required to be extraordinarily sensible after 11: 11 AM on pain of a heavy fine by way of a large donation to a charity.

Re: FLUXLIST: Piano Drop
--- Ray, perhaps if you have no heights from which to drop your piano, an alternative would be to find or dig a very deep hole to drop it down? A mine shaft? A woolen mine or a pit where jumbucks are quarried maybe? A deep well where the azure liquid has dried up? If you used a very small piano you could give the impression of a great height using a step ladder and looking through the wrong end of a telescope? Hope these ideas are of some help.

that sounds good! let's suppose the french adapt fluxball, dribbling the ball into their own goal, say, five times when they play switzerland, while our team plays normal football for once. then england and croatia might decide to play nillball, where 22 people cick the ball out of the field for 90 (ok 94 ;-) ) minutes avoiding to score any goals at all. then england AND switzerland would qualify! we're absolutely on track! everything is fine! - Date: Thu, 17 Jun 2004 20:46:44 +0100 (BST) From: =?iso-8859-1?q?michael=20leigh?= [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: FLUXLIST: Re: the ten instead of eleven game - ---yes, or we could call it Fluxball or maybe Footus? where each players has a ball on elastic and has to dribble the ball into their own goal whilst eating a bar of Swiss chocolate. I think England were very lucky to win tonight despite the terrible heat and valiant Switzerland having only ten men. Hopefully it will be cooler when England play Croatia and they will have the decency to also have one man sent off!

Re: FLUXLIST: Piano Drop
Title: Re: FLUXLIST: Piano Drop Michael, Thanks for that since my post Im pretty sure that we can get a crane with a 5 story lift and we also seem to have found an appropriate industrial site thats now part of a cultural precinct. BUT we will acknowledge your suggestions and keep them in mind if the crane or helicopter fails for some reason. In fact we have a standard upright piano already donated which is why I sent my post but again ALL your suggestion will make a great contribution to how we document the event. Question!! ! Does anyone know how many Yoko Ono Piano Drops there have been. It would be good to acknowledge that!

Dear Friends, As we understand it, Al Hansen's first piano drop works began in Germany where Mr. Hansen served in the US Army after the Second World War. This was long before Mr. Hansen had ever heard of Yoko Ono and long before Ms. Ono began working as an artist. We have never seen this work titled Yoko One Piano Drop. We might be wrong, of course, and Mr. Hansen may have created a new title later. As far as we do know, however, this is Mr. Hansen's work, and it has nothing to do with Yoko Ono.

As a consequence of the celebration of worldSILLYweek out here at the edge we have been given a piano to drop from a ³great height². Curiously the donor kind of new about Al Hansen¹s ³Yoko Ono Piano Drop² but not the names etc. We are contemplating doing a kind of piano drop¹ as a grand finale worldSILLYweek. Thus I would appreciate advice as to how we might go about it. There are no 5 story buildings to be had out here at theedge, let alone bombed-out ones, so we a looking to get a helicopter for the drop if not a crane .If we can get both we will use both and there is a chance that we may. All contributions to do with how we might do an authentic¹ drop out here would be much appreciated. As a matter of interest, or disinterest, whatever the case today is FOOLISHfriday the first day of worldSILLYweek and we plan to do the drop at 11: 11 AM on DEADmonday June 28 the last day of worldSILLYweek. On DEADmonday you are required to be extraordinarily sensible after 11: 11 AM on pain of a heavy fine by way of a large donation to a charity.

RE: FLUXLIST: Piano Drop
This picture is an idea for a project we could do for fluxlist a sort of website based project but we need to keep the images small for those of us who have limited email space. I think we should send images imbeded in the emails. Of your work yourself and ideas to be done. The website thing comes in because all of our emails are accessible through a simple search for fluxlist and another members name. say you put in yourown name you will get a list of emails you have sent. So i was thinking this is a fun and easy way to make websites. with links and pics alike. just keeping it small. giving those who stumble onto the fluxlist site a better sense of what we are doing.

FLUXLIST: KINKaid art Light
Title: KINKaid art Light Hello ALL!!! Im here to announce my excitement, and ABSOLUTEappreciation, that Madawg PoD has sent me a wonderful KINKADEgift and it IS truly TRULYwonderful. BUT there is more and therere some delightful CHANCEconcurrences in this gift that Dawg could hardly (never?) have anticipated that are trulyFLUXUS. Ill list some: Despite coming via SEEmale it didnt come via Africa and did reach the edge of the world I was notified that it had arrived at the edge of the world on FOOLISHfriday the first day of worldSILLYweek I was unable to collect it from my local POSToffice until SURREALsaturday which my good wife did for me at 11: 11 AM the most auspicious time each day during worldSILLYweek It contained not one but three reproductions of Mr. Kinkades work in a JIGsaw format the very best format in which his work should be appreciated Because the CUSTOMSdeclaration was for Puzzle Magazine and NOT ART when it is very clear that this parcel didnt contain ART but was ART the good folks at Customs decided that its contents were subversive and opened it looking for a WMD or something, found a puzzle as declared, had a go at solving them while reading the magazine, mixed them all together and reassembled the parcel which again is quite probably the only format in which Mr Kinkades work might be understood as ART, albeit in a FLUXUScageian kind of way My good wife of 30plus years finally decided to come out of the closet and reveal that she was a JIGSAWfreak Im a JIGSAWdissident AND that she was going to (A) unravel these paintings and (B) write to the Minister for Customs and protest about his staffs actions despite my protestation they they had made art I suspect that she is trying to annoy me I was bereft of thing to do on FREAKYsunday tomorrow for worldSILLYweek and now I have something extraordinarily SILLY to do that is quite FEAKY and a total waste of time So Dawg, your parcels arrived couldnt have been more auspicious and it is TOTALLYappreciated and just so FLUXUScageian!!! My problem now is, what can I send Dawg from the edge of the world that could match this SURREALsaturday KINKADEgift ??? Now Im open to suggestions and I will consider ANY reasonable proposal!!

Re: FLUXLIST: secret fluxus' pianoforte Drop
No, no, I'm sure I don't get it. Of course I'm clueless, I can almost see smashing a guitar on stage as an act of defiance and crude energy but I fully miss the ...what, the point?, I miss why anyone would smash a piano to smithereens. A great big smashing bang and large chords of sound and then splinters. And no more piano. Piano murder? Vandalism as performance Are these untuned pianos? Please explain. type yoko ono piano drop into the search box of google [I remember being about five and my grandfather arriving at the house one day out of nowhere, Hansen's grandson Beck recalled. He had a bag of junk with him, magazines, cigarette butts and refuse which he would use in his art pieces. I had some old toys out back, including a broken plastic rocking horse. The next day I came home from school and he had taken the horse, cut off the head and glued cigarette butts all over it, and then sprayed the whole thing silver. I think things of that nature showed me the possibilities that lie within everyday disposable objects, that we can act as alchemists and turn shit into gold.] Hansen, Al (?-) American artist, grandfather of Beck Hansen [noted for his role in the Fluxus art movement] [Sources: Irish Times, 19 November 1999] More Al Hansen anecdotes Related Anecdote Keywords: Eccentrics Eccentricity Performance Art Pianos Vandalism Spontaneity
Re: FLUXLIST: Piano Drop
Title: Re: FLUXLIST: Piano Drop Halll David, Albeit tangential to you posting I have been able to win the cooperation of the local FIREbrigade to do a YOKOOHNOeggdrop from the top of their BIGEXTENSIONladder at approximately 7:30 PM [EMAIL PROTECTED] as a part of the SILLYsomething were doing on NUTTYthursday prior to the SILLYconcert at The METZ at approximately 8:11 PM. Arrangement have also been made to document the first ever YOKOOHNOeggdrop and we expect to release a DVD soonish after the event.

Re: FLUXLIST: The Wiki man
Is anyone even seeing what is making writing and posting?! -- much less ofcourse recycling. I dare you to visit and, well, ever again think the same about LumpyLumkins. Or come up with a map of HaroldTheWorm's 14th birthday present, okay I'll do that, but I have other priorities first, or do I?
