[R. Nemo Hill]

I thoroughly enjoyed the interview.

Ed writes: "(1) You do realize how appallingly silly and narcissistic that sounds, don't you? (2) I gather that you are completely stuck on yourself, but what's in it for us to be stuck on yourself?"

Sorry, Ed, but I think most of the response to KG on this thread are more full of themselves than anything that he says in the interview. If anything, he gives himself and his contemporaries a bit too much credit for something that has been going on for a very long time. But in general he seems to have a light touch and a good sense of humor. And there is no denying that ubiquitous technology has given a shot in the arm to conceptualism in all its forms, especially the verbal. One can surrender to that fact or one can resist it: but to ignore it with shock and outrage is to remove oneself from the history of thought and creation entirely.

I am not going to take the bait here and start a flame war...but really folks, it's a mighty big sandbox and there is plenty of room for the kids playing in its far corners. Duchamp would be amused.

Fluxus lives!
