Eric Andersen may be an important artist but from my experience his
personality leaves a lot to be desired. As anyone who has been on the list
for over a year is well aware Eric does his I'm real Fluxus, you're not

Actually I like counterpoint, my favourite example being Steve Reich's
Electric Counterpoint.
BTW - NP died a death didn't it? Shame as I quite liked it.
That's why nobody from the founding group ever address
themselves to the list A part from me, who sometimes are quite amused by
phoniness
address is present tense
In general the artists who participated in the first festivals are considered to
form the founding group

In fact I like the direction he(as well as Dick Higgins) took Fluxus in

The amount of ignorance on This Phoney Flux List is amazing.
A person I don't know, Allen Bukoff, - I guess from the mid-West, -
published the 24th of Feb.on the list an article in where he connects me
to Ken Friedman in at least 2 ways. Since this is absolutely not true, I

Friends, artists, and fellow fakers,
Somebody please be kind enough to tell me what Fluxus really is.
Clearly, I must've been mistaken, as there is plenty of hostility and
negativity concerning false Fluxus and who is more Fluxus than someone
else. Mr. Andersen, I acknowledge your

There is no definition and there is no rigid frame. But not everything is
Fluxus. Ignorance certainly not.
For people who are interested in genuine information about Fluxus, I can
recommend the newly published catalogue from Museo Villa Croce in Genova.
The name of the catalogue is The Fluxus

Of all the original Fluxus participants (as defined by performing at

Don't let these silly boys from The Mid-West and West US confuse you. They
have noting to do with Fluxus. They are entirely phony.
Just read the title: Director, Fluxus West. Utterly ridiculous.
What you saw in Genova was the real thing.
