Event Score: A magic show(week5 tutorial)

We did a magic show in the AC1 podium, this fluxus performance refers to Ken Friedman's recipe of Magic Trick#7 from the Fluxus Performance Workboo(http://www.scribd.com/doc/24047634/Fluxus-Performance-Workbook). We have made some changes of it because we only had limited resources...HAHA!
The content of the recipe:
Magic Trick #7

Walk on stage with a big sheet of paperand a magician’s hat. Hold the paper upto the audience to show that it has beenpainted or printed with the word FLUXUS.Tear the paper into pieces and drop theminto the hat. Shake them.Reach into the hat and pull out a largecloth that reads, THE END.

 

As we don't have a magician hat and large piece of choth so we choose to make them by hand. We made a paper hat and use paper to replace the choth.

Here is our 'beautiful' works after the performance.

 

 

 We also invited audiences taking photo with us. How magical!!

Our magician looks:

Well, during the tutorial class, our classmate queried the meaning of our performance. She thought it was meaningless and it was just making audience felt embarrassed. To be honest, we know that we were not preforming a magic show(cause it's acturally not a magic show). What we really wanted to do is----confusing people,having fun. Non sense is a kinda sense. That all. We don't have to be doing every things with meanings. I think this is what Fluxus asked us to do...isn't it? Making people laugh and enjoy the show. That's enough. This may be most important reason why i chose it as our performance.

In fact, the concept of Fluxus is still unclear in my mind even if we finished this funny fluxus activity----because it is originally not sensible(haha). Maybe we don't need to be too aware of the meanings of it in our early stage of exploring art,  we can just do it and let see what we can achieve.
