Randall Neal The Database As a Genre of New Media Lev Manovich STATEMENT ON INTERMEDIA Art is one of the ways that people communicate. It is difficult for me to imagine a serious person attacking any means of communication per se. Our real enemies are the ones who send us to die in pointless wars or to live lives which are reduced to drudgery, not the people who use other means of communication from those which we find most appropriate to the present situation. When these are attacked, a diversion has been established which only serves the interests of our real enemies. However, due to the spread of mass literacy, to television and the transistor radio, our sensitivities have changed. The very complexity of this impact gives us a taste for simplicity, for an art which is based on the underlying images that an artist has always used to make his point. As with the cubists, we are asking for a new way of looking at things, but more totally, since we are more impatient and more anxious to go to the basic images. This explains the impact of Happenings, event pieces, mixed media films. We do not ask any more to speak magnificently of taking arms against a sea of troubles, we want to see it done.

Abstract The Fluxus movement of the 1960s and early 1970s laid the groundwork for future female artists and performance art as a medium. However, throughout my research, I have found that while there is evidence that female artists played an important role in this art movement, they were often not written about or credited for their contributions. Literature on the subject is also quite limited. Many books and journals only mention the more prominent female artists of Fluxus, leaving the lesser-known female artists difficult to research. The lack of scholarly discussion has led to the inaccurate documentation of the development of Fluxus art and how it influenced later movements. Additionally, the absence of research suggests that female artists’ work was less important and, consequently, keeps their efforts and achievements unknown. It can be demonstrated that works of art created by little-known female artists later influenced more prominent artists, but the original works have gone unacknowledged.

Reviewed by Marjorie Perloff, Stanford University “Fluxus,” Dick Higgins has observed, “was not a movement; it has no stated consistent programme or manifesto which the work must match, and it did not propose to move art or our awareness of art from point A to point B. The very name, Fluxus, suggests change, being in a state of flux. The idea was that it would always reflect the most exciting avant-garde tendencies of a given time or moment—the Fluxattitude.”1 Hannah Higgins, the daughter of Dick Higgins and Alison Knowles, both of them foundational Fluxus intermedia artists, agrees. Again and again, in Fluxus Experience, she insists that Fluxus was not, as is usually thought, an inconoclastic avant- garde movement but a way of life, a “fertile field for multiple intelligence interactions” (193) that has strong pedagogical potential. In keeping with her father’s theory of intermedia (see Figure 33), Hannah Higgins uses a Deweyite approach to map possible intersections between Fluxus and other disciplines so as to “allow for a sort of cognitive cross-training through exploratory creativity” (193). Within our existing university structure, a potential Fluxus program “would by definition be unspecialized .

  • Red Fox Press and Post-Fluxus Artistic Practices Research Thesis
    A Post-Fluxus Island: Red Fox Press and Post-Fluxus Artistic Practices Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with research distinction in Comparative Studies in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Elliott Jenkins The Ohio State University April 2016 Project Advisor: Philip Armstrong, Department of Comparative Studies Second Advisor: Kris Paulsen, Department of History of Art 2 Abstract The Fluxus paradigm, which took shape in the 1960s, is a movement that was founded on an experimental artistic lifestyle. Artists sought to synthesize art and life and emphasized intermedia artistic practices that subverted the mainstream art world through creating art that was simple, playful, and sometimes created by chance. Fluxus has become an extremely enigmatic artistic movement over time and has caused some scholars to concretize it and drain its life force. Other artists and scholars believe that Fluxus is still fully alive today - just iterated in a different form. This is the crux of Fluxus thought: is it ever changing and constantly adapting to contemporary culture. While I do not contend that this key characteristic is false, I assert that the key aspects of Fluxus ideologies in the twenty-first century can also open up new avenues of interpretation. I also wish to introduce the idea that Fluxus has inspired a relatively new artistic practice - a “post-Fluxus” practice. Francis Van Maele, Antic-Ham, and their Red Fox Press are the epitome of this “post- Fluxus” mode of artistic practice. For Franticham, Fluxus is a touchstone for many of their publications. But they also go beyond that paradigm with their use of contemporary technology, the way in which they craft their global artistic community, and the way they view their place in the complex history of art.

  • Yoko Ono's Performance Art,” Intersections 10, No
    intersections online Volume 10, Number 1 (Winter 2009) Whitney Frank, “Instructions for Destruction: Yoko Ono's Performance Art,” intersections 10, no. 1 (2009): 571-607. ABSTRACT What is currently known as “destruction art” originated in the artistic and cultural work of avantgarde art groups during the 1960s. In the aftermath of World War Two, the threat of annihilation through nuclear conflict and the Vietnam War drastically changed the cultural landscapes and everyday life in the United States, Asia, and Europe. In this context, “destruction art” has been situated as the “discourse of the survivor,” or the method in which the visual arts cope with societies structured by violence and the underlying threat of death. Many artists involved in destruction art at this time were concerned with destroying not just physical objects, but also with performing destruction with various media. By integrating the body into conceptual works rather than literal narratives of violence, artists contested and redefined mainstream definitions of art, social relations and hierarchies, and consciousness. Yoko Ono, who was born in Tokyo in 1933 and began her work as an artist in the late 1950s, addresses destruction through conceptual performances, instructions, and by presenting and modifying objects. Ono’s work is not only vital to understanding the development of the international avant garde, but it is relevant to contemporary art and society. Her attention to the internalization of violence and oppression reflects contemporaneous feminist theory that situates the female body as text and battleground. By repositioning violence in performance work, Ono’s art promotes creative thinking, ultimately drawing out the reality of destruction that remains hidden within the physical and social body.

  • 1 Oxbow 2017: the House of Dust July 2-14, 10-5 Daily Prof. Judith
    Oxbow 2017: The House of Dust July 2-14, 10-5 daily Prof. Judith Rodenbeck We are interested in intermedia. The House of Dust is a poem assembled according to specifications provided by the artist Alison Knowles to her friend James Tenney in 1967, generated by a small FORTRAN program, and produced by a plotter printer. Comprised of quatrains in which lists of variable terms were inserted into fixed phrases —“A house of [X] / In [Y] / Using [Z] / Inhabited by [A]”—the computer- generated poem had the potential to reach a non- repeating set of 41,800 quatrains. But the poem—whose poem? Knowles’s? Tenney’s? FORTRAN’s?—was also a generator of projects, for multiple “houses” were made in response to the quatrains: the House of Dust became a printout, an artist’s book, a sequence of physical buildings, a performance score, a pedagogical structure. Drawing on resources (including archival materials) assembled by Art by Translation for the 2016 exhibition “The House of Dust by Alison Knowles” as well as supplemental materials, we will explore the project and others related to the exploration of intermedia in the 1960s. The term intermedia was used in 1965 by Knowles’s then-partner, the Fluxus artist Dick Higgins, to identify and theorize a developing current in experimental creative practices “that fall conceptually between media that are already known.” From this exterior-yet-pendant position, such practices have the critical potential of what the philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari dubbed the “minor”: deterritorialized, always already
