RIP George Brecht

Fluxus artist, musician, chemist, implementer of good ideas, and creator of magical things in little boxes George Brecht passed away this past Friday in Cologne.

More info on Brecht, and a sample:

Two Exercises, fall 1961:

Consider an object. Call what is not the object "other". Add to the object, from the "other", another object, to form a new object and a new "other". Repeat until there is no more "other". Take a part from the object and add it to the "other", to form a new object and a new "other". Repeat until there is no more object.
