I'm afraid I'm guilty of that not happening. I kept waiting for more

though..that would be a cool document.

Actually I'm excited about the Atlas.

An Historical Atlas of Fluxlist
Fluxlist has effectively evolved into a small community, an example of
the 'global village' at its most, well villagy (sp?).  Village
elders and village idiots, friends and vague acquaintances, over the back
fence chatters, curtain twitchers, the odd recluse and a whole host of
folks who just go about their daily business, minding their own and
showing up at the odd parish meeting to put their two pennerth in. 
On occasion itinerant travellers wander through offering wares varying
from the delightful to the downright dubious. Sometimes the circus turns
up and erects its big-top in the carpark, sometimes hooligans from
neighbouring villages show up and cause fights in the pub.  People
pass away and are mourned, people get married, have babies and their
neighbours raise their glasses in acknowledgement.  Sometimes new
villagers turn up out of the blue and others up sticks and move away to
the city.
The strange thing is that most of the villagers live thousands of miles
away from each other, many have never met any of the others, some have
met but a handful, many can not put a face to the name and most a
probably quite unaware of the existence of some of the
remainder.
The idea is this:
To construct an historical and geographical atlas of fluxlist, past and
present.
Each current member of Fluxlist is invited to write about another - a
biographical piece placing that person geographically, historically and
contextually into the story of Fluxlist.
These biographical pieces may be based on truth or complete
fantasy.  Pieces may vary in length, there being no maximum or
minimum enforced and may be written in any language deemed appropriate by
the author.  Anecdotes and stories of bravery, stupidity or
particularly successful dinner parties, artworks and animals, music and
missing weekends.  When and how they joined Fluxlist, motives and
mysterious sudden disappearances.  Notable contributions to
Fluxlist, faux pas and folly.  Place of birth, date of birth, date
of first date and outcome.  Famous/noted/ignored for...  Place
of abode, distance travelled by bicycle, bravelled by tricycle and amount
of interest in % of learning to unicycle.
Information on place of abode, including address, city, state, country
etc.
Participants may produce as many 'biographies' as they wish.

Or you could write something completely different.
The aim is document Fluxlist to date, to produce something which records
Fluxlist membership at various levels, not just names but information
about the person, a short biography (as stated) and information about
their geographical location (and their location in time if you so
wish).
Entries may be duplicated.  In fact duplicate entries, especially
about 'active' members, are to be encouraged thus building up a broader
view of the individual.  
Eventually the biographies will be used to build up a 'map' of
Fluxlist.
The aim is to publish this 'atlas', eventually, as an actual book if
costs are not too prohibitive, and in digital format (PDF and
HTML)
Those interested in contributing are kindly requested to let me know
within the next week or so.

Hi Alan,

Good idea. I have lots of Fluxlist notes...despite being very quiet these
days..although I'm probably quiet because Fluxus no longer really
influences my art practice in any substantial manner.

My only suggestion is that you allow for the inclusion of visual
pieces..there are the old maps and other illustrations that would be of
use/interest.

> Each current member of Fluxlist is invited to write

> into the story of Fluxlist.
> 
> These biographical pieces may be based on truth or
> complete fantasy.  Pieces may vary in length, there
> being no maximum or minimum enforced and may be
> written in any language deemed appropriate by the
> author.  Anecdotes and stories of bravery, stupidity
> or particularly successful dinner parties, artworks
> and animals, music and missing weekends.  When and
> how they joined Fluxlist, motives and mysterious
> sudden disappearances.  Notable contributions to
> Fluxlist, faux pas and folly.  Place of birth, date
> of birth, date of first date and outcome. 
> Famous/noted/ignored for...  Place of abode,
> distance travelled by bicycle, bravelled by tricycle
> and amount of interest in % of learning to unicycle.
> Information on place of abode, including address,
> city, state, country etc.
> Participants may produce as many 'biographies' as
> they wish.
> 
> 
> Or you could write something completely different.

> The aim is document Fluxlist to date, to produce
> something which records Fluxlist membership at
> various levels, not just names but information about
> the person, a short biography (as stated) and
> information about their geographical location (and
> their location in time if you so wish).
> 
> Entries may be duplicated.  In fact duplicate
> entries, especially about 'active' members, are to
> be encouraged thus building up a broader view of the
> individual.  
> 
> Eventually the biographies will be used to build up
> a 'map' of Fluxlist.
> 
> The aim is to publish this 'atlas', eventually, as
> an actual book if costs are not too prohibitive, and
> in digital format (PDF and HTML)
> 
> Those interested in contributing are kindly
> requested to let me know within the next week or so.
