Re: FLUXLIST: Unfinished Project
My timepiece is presently unfinished, though it potentially exists in entirety. It won't be compiled by September 4. The best I can do at this point is 9/7/00.
Re: FLUXLIST: Unfinished Project
The "presently unfinished, potential existence in entirety" is understood absolutely and resides around me and within me with reckless abandon and, as most of us know, does not abide restriction(s). Like I said above, Okey, dokey : ). Best, PK Kathy Forer wrote: My timepiece is presently unfinished, though it potentially exists in entirety. It won't be compiled by September 4.

Re: FLUXLIST: Unfinished Project
recently i start to see my self like an "open ended" project (like a salmon swimming up the river to deshovar or sisifo pushing up the stone over the mountain) i used to start "things" and let them alone adding details from time to time maybe this is cause i work for myself i'm not hurry to end nothing in my life. i hate to finish everything i love. so, count on me here. thanks ...pez At 08:06 pm -0500 30/8/00, David Baptiste Chirot wrote: Salutations Roger et Cie.-- "unfinished business" project-- (it cd just be left "open ended", rather than "finished off"!) sometimes an unfinished piece seems to suggest so many tantalizing detours, side streets, by ways-- that one wants to leave it unfinished, as to complete it might be to forever cut off those avenues of promise possibility it is like a dream from which one awakes and can't quite recall all the fragments--an so it continues to haunt the mind memory of course, one cd always just make many copies of the unfinished piece and then to each one do a different versions of finishing it but sometimes is more powerfully moving to just leave that haunting open ended pathway --open for dreaming . . . unfinished business: room to dream
Re: FLUXLIST: Unfinished Project
How about an unfinished project, Fluxlisters? Souds good as I haven't actually even started anything in ages. Which leaves e v e r y t h i n g unfinished. The work could be graphic or written. It should have some kind of Fluxus connection I would think. Don't overdo it, mate. Any takers? ideas etc. welcome. I might be interested. mn

How about an unfinished project, Fluxlisters? (In honour of Alan - not to mention myself and probably every other artist in the world who's ever had a challenge with finishing a piece of work - or knowing when it's finished) Something along the lines of - participants submit a piece of unfinished work that can be reproduced in 2D and exhibited in a book format (say A4) The work could be graphic or written. It should have some kind of Fluxus connection I would think. The book would simply be called Unfinished Work Any takers? ideas etc. welcome.

Re: FLUXLIST: Unfinished Project
I think this sounds wonderfu It could maybe be, back to an earlier comment by you, I think -- a SEEMINGLY unfinished project as, who will KNOW or realize if each piece is unfinished? or should we in all humble self-diminishment WRITE OUT why we feel our piece is unfinished, or, "not enough" I'm glad to get back to this idea, as I think the folks who wrote a bit about having the nerve to finish a piece, justify a piece, self-critique a piece well, I think that is in a way the core of what we are getting at on this list, in our art, our attitude towards art. trouble is I don't know how to articulate all this, I was surely hoping someone else would step in and give us reasons to go on, now it occurs to me --- should we send an unfinished project that we've already unfinished, or should it be a newly-provoked (by this call) unfinish(ed)(able) work? Put me on the list --- I think I can actually (not quite) DO this! nbb

Re: FLUXLIST: Unfinished Project
Want to be unfinished and project? All together? I have an unfinished project - it's called the Timepiece Project. I have several people who haven't finished. I think they're Mr Blower, Ms. Forer and Mr. Smith. Which is ok, because these projects in themselves are so uniquely beautiful, I am in a quandry (and technically, hmmm, what is the word, well, sycollogically, Allen Bukoff, Sol Nand then a T, could help here, for a term, or (yeah, you don't know becuz you paint) maybe Eryk S., and also what was 'is name, something about the Hebrides, but I digress), about what to do with them all. If missing suspects don't reply with works, I will proceed after September 4.
