Sometimes it's more like David Mamet. Anyway, here's a question : what
constitutes the "avant-garde" today, if anything? And who are the leading
contemporary DADAists working today? Can an artist be based in DADA and also
be popular? The pop musician Beck is firmly rooted in DADA. Here we have
silliness raised to high art, total absence of pretentiousness, and disparate
elements included in familiar musical forms but in unexpected, nonsensical
ways. None of it new -- same concept as the bottle rack, really -- but it's
POPULAR! Does DADA imply that one's work cannot be popular with the public at
large, or has the idea of DADA finally been absorbed by the culture at large?
Who are others in the pop world who personify DADA? Mr. Zappa comes to mind,
and Bryan Ferry of Roxy Music ( who began life as an artist and avid
Duchampian). But Duchamp still has had the last word, hasn't he? I wonder if
there can BE an avant-garde now.

Hello,
      I've created this list a long time ago, nowadays I don't have much time
to moderate it (frankly, I'd say that a DADA list doesn't need a moderator),
but it's useful to have one if any problem which recquieres a moderator
arrives...
So I wanted to ask if any of you wants to moderate this list, since nowadays
I don't have time to do it... if so, please write to
elagabalus340@... telling me that you want to moderate the list (no
previous experience is needed, you don't even have to prove that you're
trustable.... the first one who writes gets the job).

Thanks,
      Kzwleh

Hello to all of my fellow aficionados of all things DADA. Here's a recent
conversation I had while I was at home:

Him: Did you read about that Dali show here in town?

Me: If it's Dali, I'm there. When is it going on?

Him. NOW!

Maybe everything we think of as "the real world" is a Dali exhibit. It seems
that way at times.

Ah, 'le vert est tres frais' indeed!

You can buy the stuff on line:
http://www.laboheme.uk.com/absinthe.htm
http://www.eabsinthe.com/
(those are just two of several places to buy it...)
Most of those on line shops are located in Europe... but maybe it's possible
for you to find one located in USA and avoid troubles at the customs... I
don't know.

Where is here? I believe it is illegal to manufacture and/or import it into
North America but not to have it.
In
London/UK it is not illegal at all. It is very expensive though due to its
high alcohol content. Best place in London I've found for retail price and
selection is the Whiskey shop on Old Compton street in Soho. Also widely
available in Shoreditch.

This is a piece I've created starting off from a scene from Waiting
for Godot.  We are looking into doing it at the post office for Tax
Day/NPM as well as the state capitol to discuss the abdication of
public funding for the arts, thus leaving artists to grovel at
corporate doors.  Feel free to perform, modify, etc. as you like.  If
you use it anywhere, I'd love to hear about what you did and how it
went.


____________________




Two men enter/come up the sidewalk.  One is carrying a suitcase, a
stool, an easel, and a sign.  The other is carrying a whip or riding
crop.  The latter might be dressed like a "dandy" or a circus ring
master.  The other should be disheveled, perhaps in torn or dirty
clothes.  These two men are Pozzo and Lucky from Waiting for Godot.
"Pozzo drives Lucky by means of a rope passed round his neck, so that
Lucky is the first to enter."

POZZO

On!  (Cracks whip, jerks at the rope.  LUCKY falls back with all of
his baggage.  He immediately falls alseep. POZZO addresses the
spectators.)  Be careful!  He's wicked.  With strangers.  Still, you
are human beings nonetheless.  (Puts on glasses) as far as one can
see.  (Takes off glasses) Of the same species as myself.  (Bursts
into an enormous laugh)  Of the same species at Pozzo!  Made in God's
image!

(with a magnanimous gesture)  Let us say no more about it. (Pulls on
the rope)  Up pig!  Every time he drops he falls alseep.  (LUCKY gets
up, picking up the baggage.  When at rest, LUCKY should look as
"blank" as possible. POZZO addresses the spectators again)  I am
happy to meet you.  Yes, sincerely happy.  (Jerks the rope)  Closer!
Stop!  (To the audience again)  Yes, the road seems long when one
journeys all alone for (consults his watch)  yes . . .  (calculates)
  yes, six hours.  That's right, six hours on end and never a soul in
sight.

(To LUCKY)  Coat!  (Lucky puts down the bag, stool, easel and sign,
advances, gives the coat, goes back to his place, takes up the bag.)
Hold that!  (POZZO holds out the whip.  LUCKY advances and, both his
hands being occupied, takes the whip in his mouth, then goes back to
his place.  POZZO begins to put his coat on and stops.)  Coat!
(Lucky puts down the bag, stool, easel and sign, advances, helps
POZZO with his coat, goes back to his place and takes up the bag,
stool, easel and sign).  Touch of Spring in the air this afternoon.
(POZZO finishes buttoning his coat, stoops, inspects himself,
straightens up.)  Whip!  (LUCKY advances, stoops, POZZO snatches the
whip from his mouth, LUCKY goes back to his place.)  Stool!  (LUCKY
puts down the bag, easel and sign, advances, opens stool, puts it
down, goes back to his place and takes up his bag.)

Is everybody ready? Is everybody looking at me?  (He looks at LUCKY,
jerks the rope.  LUCKY raises his head)  Will you look at me, pig!  I
am ready.  Is every body ready?  I don't like talking in a vacuum.
Good.  Let me see. (Lyrically) The tears of the world are a constant
quantity.  For each one who begins to weep somewhere else another
stops.  The same is true of the laugh.  Let us not then speak ill of
our generation,  It is not any unhappier than its predecessors.
(Pause)  Let us not speak well of it, either.  (Pause)  Let us not
speak of it at all.  It is true the population has increased.

(LUCKY quietly but histrionic in gestures recites the first stanza of
HOWL when POZZO says "Let us not then speak ill of our generation.
They should both stop speaking simultaneously.  When POZZO is done
speaking, LUCKY stops abruptly.  )


(Points to LUCKY)  But for him all my thoughts all my feelings would
have been of common things.  (Pause.  With extraordinary vehemence)
Professional worries!  (Calmer)  Beauty grace truth of the first
water, I knew they were all beyond me.


(LUCKY quietly but histrionic in gestures recites from "Beauty is
truth and truth beauty . . . "  when POZZO says "Beauty grace truth .
. . ".  They should both stop speaking simultaneously.  When POZZO is
done speaking, LUCKY stops abruptly.  )

Qua sky.  It is pale and luminous like any other sky at this hour of
the day.  (Pause) In these Latitudes.  (Pause) when the weather is
fine.  (Lyrical) An hour ago (looks at his watch, monotone) roughly
(lyrical) after having poured forth even since (monotone) say ten
o'clock in the morning (lyrical) tirelessly torrents of red and white
light it begins to lose its effulgence, to grow pale (gesture to the
two hands lapsing by stages) pales, even a little paler a little
paler until . . .

Ppppfffffttt!  Finished.  It comes to rest.  But (hand raised in
admonition) but behind this veil of gentleness and peace night is
charging and will burst upon us (snaps his fingers) pop!  Like that.
(monotone as his inspiration leaves him) just when we least expect it.

(to LUCKY) Sign, pig!  (To audience.)  This is only his day job.  He
is really a POET.  (Laughs.)  Such a thing!  To be a poet!

(LUCKY sets down the suitcase and sets up the easel beside POZZO.  He
puts a sign on the easel. )

Think, pig.  (POZZO cracks the whip.  LUCKY dances while reciting)

LUCKY

Given the existence as uttered forth in the public works of Puncher
and Wattmann of a person God quaquaquaqua with white beard
quaquaquaqua outside time without extension who from the heights of
divine apathia divine athamia divine aphasia loves us dearly with
some exceptions for reasons unknown but time will tell and suffers
like the divine Miranda with those who for reasons unknown but time
will tell are plunged in tormet plunged in fire whose fire flames if
that continues and who can doubt it will fire the firmament that is
to say blast hell to heaven so blue still and calm so calm with a
clam which even though intermittent is better than nothing but not so
fast and considering what is more that as a result of the labors left
unfinished crowned by the Acacadademy of Antrhopopopometry in
Essy-in-Possy of Testew and Cunard it is established beyond all doubt
all other doubt than that which clings to the labors of men that as a
result of the labors unfinished of Testew and Cunard it is
established as hereinafter but not so fast for reasons unknown that
as a result of the public works of Puncher and Wattmann it is
established beyond all doubt that in view of the labors of Fartov and
Belcher left unfinished for reasons unknown that man in brief in
spite of the strides of alimentation wastes and pines wastes and
pines and concurrently simultaneously what is more for easons unknown
in spite of the strides of physical culture the practice of sports
such as tennis football running cycling swimming flying floating
riding gliding skating all kinds of dying flying sports of all sorts
autumn summer winter winter tennis of all kinds hockey of all sorts
penicilline and succedanea in a word I resume namely concurrently
simultaneously what is more for reasons unknown but time will tell
that in the plains in the mountains by the seas by the rivers running
water running fire the air is the same and then the earth namely the
air and then the earth in the great cold the great dark the air and
the earth abode of stones in the great cold alas alas and something
the air the earth the sea the earth abode of stones I resume for
reasons unknown in spite of the tenis the facts are there but time
will tell I resume alas alas alas

(POZZO has been nodding off he wakes up, yanks on the rope and cracks
the whip.  )

POZZO

Enough, pig!  (To the audience) I never what he is talking about, so
that proves that he is brilliant!  (Stands up, gestures)  Now, who
will partake of this great artistic event!

(At this point, the rest of the show is improvisational depending
upon the participation of the audience.  If the audience is not
forthcoming, then POZZO will call upon LUCKY to sing, to dance, to
read and improvise poetry.  The work should be alternately sublime
and banal.  For example, alternating excerpts from Howl or Rumi among
"roses are red, violets are blue" type of poetry; singing should
alternate between sincere attempts to sing well (whether the
performer can or not) and blatant squalling.

When the artists are ready to leave--i.e., the audience has dwindled,
ceased to participate, or an hour or more has elapsed--POZZO will
jerk on the rope and crack the whip.)

POZZO

Enough pig!  You have earned your keep again this day.  These people
have tired of you.    (LUCKY slumps back to bored/nonexistent stance.
  POZZO cracks the whip. )   Sign! (LUCKY dismantles the easel and the
sign.)  Stool!  (LUCKY picks up the stool).  Suitcase!  (LUCKY picks
up the suitcase.  POZZO pulls on the rope and cracks the whip.)  On!
(They leave)

  So often the time for polite receptions and festivals and poetry
slams and basically the COMMODIFICATION, the MUMMIFICATION, the
BOUGEOIS-IZATION of poetry.  I am proposing that all good DADAists
reclaim National Poetry Month in the name of art and chaos.  We are
trying here in the Twin Cities (Minneapolis) area to set up some
seemingly spontanoues poetry eruptions on the streets, especially
downtown during business/lunch time.  DO YOUR WORST--put REAL poetry
in the faces of people who would not otherwise subject themselves to
it, accept to attend some boring wine and cheese reception for their
neighbor, the professor (and Mary Ann) having his or her dry ack
poetry being published with an arts grant.  Be a live wire for art!!

Let me know what you come up with!

Hello all

You are all invited to my exhibition that I am having called GLAMOUR. It opens
on the 1st of March to the public but the 'private view' is a week later on the
8th March.

It's at:

The Map Gallery, Shoreditch Town Hall, 380 Old Street,
LONDON EC1V 9LT  Tel: 0207 729 0619

There will be some drinks there wine and Absinthe probably, but better BYO as
well.
Then on to Foundry Bar after for a pint of Absinthe. It's on the corner of Old
St. and Great Eastern St.


Glamour: the spiel:

The black and white pictures are a series of portraits taken from the street.
They are photographs of photographs that have been posited for public display in
zones around London. Apparitions. Exposed to the public and the elements through
time. They physically change becoming obscure and developing new directions.
Meanings change. Personalities are levelled and assume new identities. Words
fragment and contexts shift. Perceptions refocus. Glamours are spells, charms,
spectacles. The exhibition invites you to be enchanted . All photographs are for
sale at £15 each.


So come along, all welcome

Max

random numbers
street names twist
blur  whirl carriage ride
violent affairs
ferris wheel
tilt-a-whirl
i saw it twice today
and learned nothing
each time
a finger is pointed
turning red   hot flash
say it out loud this time
and continue

Re: onelist changing this lists name, or not, or other- t'would seem
logickable to merge both lists and let everyone slug it out until the
inevitable multi-fractal schism....etc.

Hello Dear DADAism members...
Here's a Forward from an email that I've received from onelist... it seems
that maybe they'll change our name, unless that the other ones are less than
us or more silent than us...

Best Wishes,
             Kzwleh

Here's the FWD:
______________________________________________________________________

Dear ONElist Moderator/Owner,
                           ONElist recently merged with eGroups, another
leading provider of email groups.  Since the merger, we've been working hard
behind the scenes to ensure a smooth integration of the two services.  Part
of this process requires that all communities have unique names (i.e.,
communityname@onelist.com).  We are contacting you because your community,
DADAism, has the same name as another community on the new service.

We've been working closely with our moderators to develop a system for
determining which communities will need a new name.  This system takes
into account the following criteria:

1. How long the community has been in existence
2. The size of the community
3. The activity level of the community
4. Whether the community is an announcement community or a discussion
community

Over the next few days, we'll use this system to identify which communities
will need to be renamed.  If your community does need to be renamed, you
will receive an email from us on or before February 22, 2000.  If you do not
receive an email from us, then your community will not need to be renamed.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation throughout this process.

Sincerely,

The ONElist Team

             The LomoHome
             After moving several times during the last year, the LomoEmbassy
London has finally found a permanent lomo home, a space for unlimited
LomoEbullience and the London centre for lomographic experiment and
communication.

             The LomoMicroMiniGallery
             The GrandSmallOpening of the LomoMicroMiniGallery features seven
thousand lomographs from Britain and around the world. The wildest, weirdest and
most colorful lomographs, taken by 40 British lomographers over the last two
years, will be on show. No age limit, all shapes and sizes - children and dogs
especially welcome. Free entry!

             ( But before you get too excited, it is also the smallest space in
London - about 7sq meters upstairs, which for all foot and inch people is about
49 square feet, so please don't come all at once! ).

             The LomoEmbassy
             The embassy below the gallery will serve as a nifty multi purpose
space/office during the day, but also as a corner to mingle and talk lomo at
night. You can become part of upcoming lomo events and projects or create your
own local lomowall. Downstairs, you will be able to copy your work to slide to
be included in lomo slide shows, you can also buy or repair your cameras,
collect your membership card ( from june 2000 ), try on some lomo t-shirts, or
just pop in for a pleasant chit-chat.

             Snaphappy greetings from all at lomo london see you all at the
gallery !!
