FLUXLIST: Heat Transfer Event
Heat Transfer Event by Ken Friedman Heat Transfer Event Glasses: one filled with ice water, one with boiling tea, one or more empty glasses. Liquids are transferred from glass to glass until the tea is cooled to drinking temperature. 1970 Unannounced performance at the 606 Club 90 Lots Road, London February 17, 2004 One of the events we often perform after concerts is Ken Friedmans Heat Transfer Event. Dick Higgins Danger Music Number Fifteen is the other one we do most often. We went to the 606 Club for a quick meal after the unannounced concert at the Royal College of Music on February 17. After eating, we performed an elaborate version of heat Transfer Event with two cups of tea, a glass of ice water, and three to five empty water glasses per person. We also used eight cups of tea in a centre of the table, circulating liquids among all glasses and exchanging glasses between all performers. _ Express yourself with cool new emoticons http://www.msn.co.uk/specials/myemo

FLUXLIST: FLUX CAFE in Austin, Texas
PRESS RELEASE DATE: FEBRUARY 16, 2004 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE KILL DATE: March 1, 2004 Contact: Josh Ronsen [EMAIL PROTECTED] 512-533-9741 LOCAL PERFORMANCE ARTISTS PRESENT FLUX CAFE TO PERFORM WORKS OF 1960s FLUXUS COLLECTIVE A unique evening of performances in the vibrant style of Fluxus, the late 20th-century art collective. February 28, 2004 at 8:00 PM Church of the Friendly Ghost 209 Pedernales Austin, Texas Admission: Free (performances will cost between $.10 and $50.00) Flux Cafe is a unique performance event celebrating the challenging work of the Fluxus artists of the 1960s and 1970s. Flux Cafe will feature performances of pieces by artists associated with Fluxus, including Dick Higgins,Yoko Ono and Nam June Paik, as well as a few new pieces in the vein of Fluxus. The show is being presented by Alex Keller and Josh Ronsen, two contemporary artists based in Austin. Keller and Ronsen will be joined by Elana Logsdon and the Austin New Music Co-Op for the performances. In the Fluxus tradition of challenging the audience, admission will be Free and the audience will order pieces a la carte. Alex Keller says The Flux Cafe asks the audience to be a consumer, and decide what pieces will happen when. Admission will be free, but in order to see a piece performed you will have to select it on a menu and order it from the waitstaff. The costs of pieces will vary from ten cents to fifty dollars. It might be possible to show up and see an evening of performances without spending a dime. No piece will be performed more than once, some may not be performed at all, and some will be performed simultaneously. It¹s possible that nothing will happen at all. What is Fluxus? Josh Ronsen says FLUXUS is a name used to describe the activities and objects of a group of artists mainly living in New York City in the 1960s, but Fluxus happened around the world. It is not an artistic movement, but more of a brand name of absurdity, humor, dedication, simplicity, art, anti-art, and anti-anti-art. Its detractors, including Pierre Boulez, called it Neo-Dada. Its supporters called it Zen Vaudeville. Fluxus tried to cross every line, break every barrier, destroy every unquestioned convention about art, music and life. There is a beautiful conciseness, like a Zen koan, to a perfect Fluxus performance score, and a austere business-like approach to its realization. For additional information, including press-ready photographs, please contact Josh Ronsen at [EMAIL PROTECTED] or 512-533-9741. BIOS: Alex Keller Alex Keller is a artist based in Austin, Texas.
