present. The exhibition includes over 220 examples of Instruction Drawings in a 
variety of forms, such as working drawings, installation instructions, musical scores,

October 17, 2002 - January 5, 2003 
Video Screening 
Viesturs Kairiss and Ilmars Blumbergs: Magic Flute 
Laila Pakalnina: Papagena 
Bakalar Gallery 
This exhibition incorporates two short films revealing various facets of Riga, the 
capital city of Latvia. For the film Magic Flute, director Viesturs Kairis~ s and 
stage designer Ilmars Blumbergs adopted elements from their joint production of 
Mozart's The Magic Flute at the Latvian National Opera. Laila Pakalnina's 
black-and-white documentary film Papagena depicts the citizens of Riga listening to 
Mozart's music (some, apparently for the first time) in the outskirts of Riga. These 
films were commissioned by the curator Helena Demakova for the 2001 Venice Biennale to 
provide a sober contrast to Riga's 800-year anniversary celebrations.

RE: FLUXLIST: Maciunas Tree

2002-10-10 Thread Sherry Wong



i 
think it's a rubber tree. the story is related in the book mr. fluxus. i'm 
pretty sure its those giant trees in front of the building now. there's more 
than one but I don't know if those are rubber trees. They look like regualr old 
trees- mind you I don't know what a rubber tree should look 
like.

SoHo, his domicile at the time, . Last weekend I went to see if it was

FLUXLIST: wiki

2002-04-24 Thread Sherry Wong

wow i wish fluxus had wiki. I do twiki with my friends which is a more jazzy version. 
you can upload pix etc and you can make pages other people cant edit. we have a main 
home page and everyone has their own page so you can create public forums or private 
to do lists. We've had great discussions about creating urban village utopias etc.

FLuxlist would be great on it- I imagine there would be collaborative poems, stories 
and collages. Plus a book/film/etc review page where people post their openinions. A 
questions page, anouncements, a claneder page. One great feature is that you link 
esily to other pages by just typing like this LikeThis- which would link oyu to the 
page called LikeThis so let's say there was a Maciunas question- the answer oculd 
refer the user with one sentence to many other web pages. Ex: GeorgeMaciunas was one 
of the FLuxusFounders who did PerformanceArt and is one of my FavoriteArtists. Then 
you could click on the double words and learn more about George or link to other 
artists pages where people could discuss their work.

It's easy to use though. each page you make has buttons on the buttom- edit and upload.

wow it would rock so hard. Whose up on twiki stuff. I have no clue how to make one or 
get server space. 

did that make sense at all?
wiki wiki means quick in Hawaiian.

Subject: Re: FLUXLIST: Fifty/Forty Eight


a wiki is a common name for website which - through a php or cgi-bin script design - 
allow any visitor to alter the content. In a language of a country whose name my silly 
little White European Male brain has refused to remember, wiki means fast, and wiki 
wiki means very fast, i.e., uploading and updating of information doesn't require 
uploading files, and can be done online.

Becasue of these qualities, wikis have become a commonly used anarchic publishing 
systems, perfect for discussion forums, etc. (the indymedia interface is somewhat 
similar, allowing people to upload news and comments on the run). There's something 
eminently social about them, since they require a certain commitment and agreement in 
order to be effective - much like anyone can alter and edit information, they can also 
delete it. Try to imagine something like a static, web-based version of a mailing list 
like this one.

In order to set up a wiki, unless you're a programmer, the software needs to be 
installed on a server. Twiki (which youarehere, a project run by Simon Worthington of 
mute/metamute, uses) is one which is online, and can be used freely.

Go to
http://youarehere.metamute.com/twiki/bin/view/Home/WebHome

scroll down for the instructions on how to register, open a page, upload information 
and edit it.

this kind of exhausts my knowledge on the subject. 
Anyway, there are some more wikis here:

http://www.desk.org:8080/Desk/ArtServerWikis

and try a google search for more, I'm sure some include better descriptions of the 
concept than this one


best,


Kamen

why is someone paying 50 bucks for that? How confusing. You can ask around and pick up 
an artists book handmade by an olde timey fluxus artrist in the exhibition for the 
same price.
