SLSA 2013 (\u201cPostnatural?\u201d), October 3-6, 2013. University of Notre Dame<\/p>\n
http:\/\/www.litsciarts.org\/index.html
\nPanel: \u201cFluxus and the Intersections of Art and Science\u201d<\/p>\n
Organizers:
\nJames (Jim) McManus. Emeritus Professor, California State University, Chico
\nJMcManus@csuchico.edu
\nRoger Rothman. Associate Professor, Bucknell University
\nroger.rothman@bucknell.edu
\nFifty years ago, in 1963, George Maciunas released his Fluxus Manifesto
\ninto the world. For him, Fluxus had the potential to “purge the world of
\nbourgeois sickness [and] promote a revolutionary flood and tide in art.”
\nWhat followed Maciunas’ declaration were acts of poetry, performance and
\nobject making–almost all of which aimed to integrate art into life in ways
\nthat were informed by the Dadaists and Surrealists before them. One of the
\nmost interesting ways in which Fluxus artists integrated art and life
\ninvolved the incorporation of science and technology. For this year’s
\nconference of the SLSA, we propose a series of linked panels exploring the
\nscientific and technological aspects of Fluxus. Maciunas, for example, was
\ndeeply interested in technologies of learning, and artists like Nam June
\nPaik and Joe Jones made work that deployed electronics and motorized
\ncomponents. In addition to papers on Fluxus itself, we welcome
\ncontributions that consider the influence of Fluxus on other artists who
\nengage science and technology in their work. Papers that extend the
\nboundaries of Fluxus are also welcome, including (but not limited to) those
\naddress projects such as E.A.T., the LACMA \u201cArt and Technology\u201d program,
\nand the 1970 World\u2019s Fair in Osaka.
\nSend proposals (150-250 words) to both Jim McManus and Roger Rothman:
\nJMcManus@csuchico.edu; roger.rothman@bucknell.edu
\nSLSA requires that organizers submitted their panels by April 15, so
\nproposals must arrive by March 15.
