    Performance Research has released a free digital edition of the long
    unavailable Fluxus Performance Workbook, a collection of short performance
    works and event scores by over forty artists.

    The first examples of what were to become Fluxus event scores date back to
    John Cage's famous class at The New School where artists such as George
    Brecht, Al Hansen, Allan Kaprow, and Alison Knowles began to create art
    works and performances in musical form. One of these forms was the event.
    Events tend to be scored in brief verbal notes known as event scores. In a
    general sense, they are proposals, propositions, and instructions for
    different kinds of actions.

    To accompany a special Fluxus issue of Performance Research, Ken Friedman,
    Owen Smith, and Lauren Sawchyn edited a fortieth anniversary edition of the
    Fluxus Performance Workbook. The workbook is now available in a free
    electronic edition. This book can be viewed on-line or downloaded. The
    download is a .pdf file that can also be printed.

    This expanded and updated edition of the Workbook contains scores by George
    Brecht, Jean Dupuy, Dick Higgins, Joe Jones, Bengt af Klintberg, Milan
    Knizak, George Maciunas, Larry Miller, Nam June Paik, Mieko Shiomi, Robert
    Watts, and many more.
