It is amazing how Sol and others thought they could rely on and base a
Fluxlist on Ken Friedman, who is considered to be a complete farce by most
artists ever associated with Fluxus.
As Ben Patterson often puts is: If Ken Friedman didn't exist we would have
to invent him.

Hi all,
I know many of you work full-time at a job other than as an artist and yet
still find the time to work to a significant degree as artists. Often for
those of us interested in the avant-garde making a living from our artistic
interests is not an option. Lately I seem to have got bogged
mr. anderson,

Sol,
I find making lists and then working through them helps. The important thing is
not to take on too much at once. Be realistic: it must be manageable. First,
think of absolutely everything you'd like to accomplish and make a list. Then
prioritize, what's absolutely neccessary and and can be

i thought there was a policy in effect about using this list for flames and
personal vendettas. If there is in fact such a policy, you should boot eric
from the list. If there isn't, my advice for the list is to establish one.

I find very little quarrels on the list after Ken Friedman left.
Howver, since it is called a Fluxlist, it should be important for the
members to know how most Fluxus artists value Ken Friedman.
Personally I have nothing against him.

To me, that sounds like a sincere compliment, i.e. if Ken were not worth having
around, why would one invent him?

Greetings Gates,
Squeezing the day for time is certainly a problem. I have found the most
satisfactory results come from stealing time from one's job. I work for a
New York publishing house. Possibly the lowest paying publisher in NY.
However, what they lack in actual cash they make up for in

No. What Fluxus (tm) artists think about each other is rather unimportant.
Btw, what do "most fluxus artists" think about Maciunas ?
Or Al Hanson ?
'Lo.
Squeeze the day!!! (sorry couldn't help it).
I also do believe in stealing time, and thus work for a very small company where,
I, like you, Meryl, do what is required, then opt out for art when the owner is in
Italy or off in the big black Mercedes Benz, etc. There is an element of danger

CalArts, well, it's a pretty prestigious school, and I see that Matthew Barney
