4. QUESTION OF THE DAY
5. INSPIRATION
John Cage? Fluxus was born mainly because of him, and the concepts he was developing with his experimental music...
Marcel Duchamp, known for his “readymades”, works based on objects found in the street.
Fluxus transformed the meaning of what art could be.
Piano Activities (1962)
Three special works from the Fluxus people:
- the Street Theatre
- the special white Chess Board
- Mapping Tokyo
Lots of things inside the box - here
Stop Stealing Sheep and Find Out How Type Works - book by Erik Spiekermann’s where you get to understand how type works, and why it is a language.

6. Homework
You will create a box with objects taken from the city. You’ll set up a walk: where to go, a specific neighborhood or a random promenade. How long, how short, alone or with someone, directions, this and that. And then, you’ll record your exploration collecting some objects.
Events in flux you will select to be fixed in time.
