Fluxus neighborhood cookout

In the ongo­ing quest to focus the east­ern NC ass-​end of the Lesser Dis­mal Swamp, artists note the absolute con­fines of regional geo­graphic lim­i­ta­tions rep­re­sented by death flux inti­ma­tions. Yes. Seri­ously. How can we form cubist flux from that which is rounded? Not avail­able. A recent hap­pen­ing on Brown St. 1. The artist walks on right […]

Book of Fluxus Family Games

Am cur­rently amass­ing cli­part from per­sonal col­lec­tion to be included in a Flux­ual Cubist Col­lage Mega-​Structure Artis­tic Form. For fun and enter­tain­ment, one need only turn to page 242. It’s a com­pendium of cre­ative col­lu­sion. As a fluXus per­son, most of my hourly endeav­ors seem illu­sion­ary. The pur­pose of art is what? It is to enter­tain. It is to […]

Mom talked to me today. I know, she’s dead. The empty chair in the kitchen reminds me.

Lum­bar fusion with screws and rods over 20 years ago — my spine began […]

Arts Council Member's Show

Inter­na­tional Flux­hi­bi­tion #4 is online and might I say, Cecil Tou­chon has done quite an amaz­ing job. While a for­mal intro­duc­tion (shak­ing of hands and how-are-you?s) does not yet exist between us, the use of “Mr. Tou­chon” seems a bit for­mal here so I shall assume we are now on a first name basis. There’s a new Flux Case project and […]

May Books for week one

The Assem­blag­ist just took the pledge. It was a rather no-​duh moment. Such pledges sequester well with my re-​use and re-​think motto. Redesign means rebirth, or so I tell myself. It’s imper­a­tive that we, as humans, seek to redesign our cast-​aways. My the­ory is sim­ple — if there is not a prac­ti­cal appli­ca­tion for “used” items, they must then […]

Yes, the week­end pre­vi­ous con­tained many amus­ing ele­ments. Oliver and yours truly loaded the Enter­prise rental (*upgraded due to lack of vehi­cles, amen thank you) Chrysler Town & Coun­try and took off for points north and west. First stop — Car­rboro and Chapel Hill to a woodsy retreat, a tree house stu­dio apart­ment made even more lovely by the […]
