ReSite No.4, Vol 2 just published!








ReSite – Manual of Scores, Manifestos & Radical Actions


“Do you want to be on the boat, or do you want to be left on the dock?” This is a question asked by Allan Revich’s manifesto to launch the ‘Fluxboat’ for the 21st Century. Field Study is on the boat along with its supply of Retail Cargo Cult stickers.

ReSite no.4, vol 2 brings you the AEIOU Manifesto, instruction to create Total Books, The Should Manifesto and further post cards from Orwellian Britain by Simon Warren. This issue also introduces the iconoclastic work of Otto David Sherman, whose satirical stamps are included, note one on me!

ReSite is an assembling publication where pages have an element of audience participation or interaction. ReSite is part of the tradition of Fluxus editions where anyone can perform an action or score. In addition to this performance-based approach, ReSite taps into the rich tradition of the avant-garde with contributions of manifestos and documentation of art actions.

ReSite encourages participation by writers and musicians to produce visual scores and manifestos as well as continuing the call for contributions by conceptual artists. Please pass on the word to anyone who would like to be in future issues.
