FLUXLIST: I'm all fluxed up now

2006-07-20 Thread Melissa McCarthy
Why the flux can't we just fluxing get along?! David, Enid, J*** and I, 
we're all happily fluxing whenever we fluxing feel like it -- what the flux 
ever happened to just fluxing being kind to one another?


I fluxed up once; I don't want to do it again. I just want to fluxing make 
art, and whatever the flux those fluxers want to call it, it doesn't fluxing 
matter to me.


It's just fluxing stuff, man!

Cheerio!

Dear David,

Thanks a lot. You went and got Enid involved, and now everything's gone to 
pot. I'm sorry I ever said yes to you in the refrigerator box, and I checked 
-- nothing I did or said in third grade counted, SO THERE!


I have moved on; I have grown up. I am now involved with J*** in a washing 
machine crate, and we are deliriously happy. I hope that you find whatever 
joy and beauty you can, without me. I send soapsuds and popsicles, for I was


Yours,

FLUXLIST: Physical stuff

2006-04-22 Thread Melissa McCarthy
Carol, I was so taken by your post; spent the night in my studio, surrounded 
by the clutter and stuff of work and no work, possibility and despair of 
use. I think you're right; there is a certain satisfaction in seeing the 
collected physical *stuff* of years of art/work -- created stuff, stuff with 
potential, stuff that reminds us not to do *that* again, stuff that waits 
patiently for that is exactly what I needed!


And then there is the mental and emotional clutter to address...right now 
that seems like a more daunting task than cleaning the studio! But sometimes 
they go hand in hand, the mental clutter drives the art, and then you have


more stuff.

I envy the zen, but live more in the wreck room.

Has anyone on the list ever done anything wildly destructive and/or 
cathartic with old work, then used the remains to create something new? (I'm 
thinking of an art bonfire in a metal trashcan in my own case, an idea I've 
toyed with for a while, and this may be the year)


Or have you done that and had instant regret?

Pax,

FLUXLIST: Party in LA

2004-04-07 Thread Melissa McCarthy


Got this notice in another e-mail, and kind of wishing I was nearby, and 
that it wasn't the Easter Vigil, and that I could go -- but maybe some 
others are and can go...ME

  Kipper Kid Brian Routh Hits L.A. Again
with His Two-Fisted Video Works at Dangerous Curve,
   the New Downtown Experimental Exhibition
 and Performance Art Space
 Join the Community Opening Celebration Party!

- If you haven't yet experienced one of
the very hip community parties at Dangerous Curve, Downtown Los
Angeles's new experimental art space, then come to the opening
celebration of video installations by Brian Routh (AKA Harry Kipper of
the performance-art duo Kipper Kids) on April 10, 2004.  More and more
people are starting to hear about what a blast Dangerous Curve is.  As
usual, the party runs from 7:00 to 11:00 p.m., at 1020 Fourth Place,
between Molino and Mateo Streets, in the back of the 500 Molino Street
Lofts (#102).  Yet again, there will be fantastic (and healthy!) food
by
our amazing chef John Saslow, performance art by TBA, and relaxing
chair
massages by Life Balance Day Spa.  This time, the live music is
provided
by the over-the-top dark wave band Death by Dolls (featuring Dame
Darcy,
recently from Boston), plus the experimental sounds of Billy, Billy and
Son, and downtownhost.  There's no charge, and there's plenty of close,
free parking.  The exhibit runs until May 1, closing with a Performance
Art and Experimental Music Night starting at 8:00 p.m. (See below.) The
gallery is open Wednesday through Saturday, 1:00 to 7:00 p.m.  See
dangerouscurve.org for directions, events, pictures, and updates.
Brian Routh gained international fame in the 1970's as one of the
Harrys
in the Kipper Kids, along with a fellow student (at East 15 Acting
School in Essex, England) Martin von Haselburg (who's now married to
Bette Midler).  They took Artaud's Theatre of Cruelty to heart, but
drawing their own blood in their vaudevillian boxing rituals caused
them
to be relegated to performance art by theater purists, despite their
theatrical costumes.  In fact, Routh has collaborated with performance
artists such as Herman Nitsch, Karen Finley, Eric Bogosian, Ann
Magnusen, and Annie Sprinkle, but believes the term performance art
has become perjorative, insofar as it's (unfortunately) come to mean
bad theater.  He's remained steadfastly at the forefront of
experimental theater, preferring improvisation over scripting, humor
over shock value.  He's also been a dedicated teacher, even in the face
of misunderstanding students who try to one-up him in self-destructive
ways.
Routh brings the same intensity to his video works as he does to his
performance art.  He plays with distorting the image to both a
hilarious
and disturbing effect, turning himself into a Big Nose, or a Wise Man,
or a Blowfish Man staring into a Ski Nose.  Sometimes he's jabbering
nonsensically as in the Kipper Kids, sometimes he's giving you an
over-the-top New Age lecture, sometimes a dizzying policital rant to
the
tune of what sound like incessant toy instruments.  Fancy video wipes
that would look idiotic in the hands of almost any other look
tongue-in-cheek sublime in Routh's.  When he adds props, they are
decidedly screwy, jacking up the overall over-the-top nature of things,
so that you feel as if you've been sucked into the ultimate rabbit hole
and will never get out.  Nor do you want to.
Dangerous Curve is committed to supporting visionary established and
emerging artists of all ages, by emphasizing one-person shows of risky,
intelligent work that is not necessarily commercially viable nor
currently popular.  In a time when other spaces have reduced their
performance-art programming, Dangerous Curve is also a new venue for
performance artists, with performance-exhibits, monthly performance-art
events, and an annual end-of-summer performance-art festival planned.

Just recently read in an issue of Fiber Arts magazine a story of a woman who 
was working with incarcerated women and using, because of restrictions, 
unconventional materials. she discovered a way of tinting toilet paper with 
mm candies, making paper roses from them, and putting them in a basket made 
of rolled magazine pages, etc. If you send me your mailing address, I can

FLUXLIST: Amaretti wrappers

2004-01-03 Thread Melissa McCarthy
OK, all you savvy people out there -- has anyone heard of, or better yet 
*seen* amaretti wrappers (those lovely thin papers wrapped around the 
delicious Italian cookie) being set on fire, with the theory that at some 
point in the burning, the bundle of ash rises, and if you can catch it whole 
in your hand you will have good luck, or your wish will be granted, or some 
such positive outcome?

If so, *how* does one accomplish this?! I was given an enormous tin of said 
cookies, and this was mentioned to me, but none of my attempts to accomplish 
this feat were successful. Though I do have some *lovely* amaretti wrapper 
ash

Perhaps I need to invite several of you over for an amaretti and espresso 
evening of flaming fortune... anyone in the neighborhood?

I was recently in Chicago and was able to see the Artist Stamps exhibit at

FLUXLIST: Flummoxed over Fluxbox

2003-01-22 Thread Melissa McCarthy
Crispin -- or Don -- I'm a little confused (and those who know me, know this 
is nothing either new or surprising). Are we to send you our 1 prototype 
contribution in a box meeting the dimensions you set out, or do we just send 
it however and you'll provide a box, or we send a box later?

I had an idea -- and went to bed with a three-day headache because of it, 
thank you very much! What if all the Box II contributions were mailed to 
participants in the large plastic bags that were mentioned, thus keeping 
postage down, and each recipient created his/her own container. That way 
cigar-box afficionados could use a cigar box, while those who favored paint 
cans could do that, and anyone who had an alternative could use it as well. 
A pre-printed label could be included with each set of contents

BTW, the candy box arrived the other day, delighting! Thank you!

Re: FLUXLIST: Re: FLUXLIST BOX #2

2003-01-08 Thread Melissa McCarthy
Crispin, I like the idea of either the plastic zip-loc storage bags, which 
someone suggested, or cigar boxes -- with those, people could conceivably 
send their submissions in a box, which you would refill with a complete 
collaborative and send back -- or send to someone else, with each 
participant getting a different box back. We'd have to set minimum 
dimensions (lxwxd) so that nothing was too big. The only problem w/ that 
would be creating additional boxes, but it's not an insurmountable problem 
-- I could contribute a couple of extra cigar boxes

Meanwhile I'd be happy to work a trade with you for a tin -- can I interest 
you in a slug tag and other assorted things?

For those who have questions about my slug tags:
They are objects, not a game (though if someone could come up with an idea for Slug Tag, I'd offer to be It first).
I just got a little carried away with an idea and a hand-carved rubber stamp, and wanted to share.
So, a self-addressed stamped envelope (best), stamp and mailing address (OK) or mail-exchanged something (OK,too) will get you, as promised, a personalized slug tag -- and if I find anything else that might be fun to send, I'll pass it along too.

Hispanic Homies. And me without 2 quarters!!! The nearby grocery store had 
a Homies unit, but it was out of order on the day I saw it. I live in New

If anyone is Homie or Mijo deprived, I'll be happy to help. Now I'm curious

FLUXLIST: Titles/no Titles

2002-05-23 Thread Melissa McCarthy

From Audrey Flack's _Art and Soul_:

The title affects the work. If a painting is titled during the early 
configuration of it, the sense and meaning of the title become part of the 
painting.

Some titles just appear; they seem to be woven into the structure of the 
composition. Others are elusive and only emerge through struggle, battle, or 
debate. Some works never get a name; others get two.



BTW to Tom Holmes: If the bark-like covers of your book have text collaged 
on the inside, and an F on the front and B on the back they're mine; 
it's actually cardboard from the Big Dig in Boston -- come from a 4'X8' 
original piece.

BTW, a Random Bit of Niceness occurred when I was at the post office: I had

Now what? I also have 2 images that A. Bowman sent as cover possibilities, 
but I think I only have them in hard copy...and not very good at that. Any 
suggestions for what final form these should take?

Almost all ears,
Melissa
(well, not even close to all ears -- that would be a little disturbing. But 
willing to listen anyway)

With any luck, will be in a collaborative show at the Pink Pony on Orchard street sometime in April...would love to try and see you, and any other flux-locals for more than a couple of hours! And a Bass would be right up my alley, in either pronunciation

Isn't tintinnabulation from Edgar Allen Poe's The Bells?

...and the tintinnabulation that so musically swells from the bells...

Noisily,
Melissa
