As she sorted through her slides, Caydance recollected a morning spent several years ago in an upstairs room where the walls were lined with wooden storage boxes designed by George Maciunas. The room also included a table, a chair, a rug, and window-streamed Berkshire morning light.
On her mind was the accordion folded tape attached to the Fluxus 1 wooden box. Distributed in not-always-the-same multiples, this box had been collected, edited, and designed by Maciunas himself. Instead of pages, inside in bolted-together envelopes were graphic works, scores, and fragments made by artists: Ay-O, George Brecht, Alison Knowles, Ben Vautier, Yoko Ono, Jackson Mac Low, and many others. Dick Higgins, it was rumored, had been removed after an argument.
