Fluxus : events by George Maciunas 





Note on the Graph Scores: The first scores in this section are printed here as a list of words. The way they are to be performed is that a graph chart is set up, with the words running down the side axis. Across the top, numbers are filled in with time designated in blocks of seconds. The score is filled in some manner. Then, when the performance time for each action comes up, that action is performed to generate sound.
