Is discharge Dada? No, it is not. Influenced by and with a similar attitude to, but not Dada..
Is discharge Fluxus?
No, it is not.
Influenced by and with a similar attitude to, but not Fluxus.
Is discharge art for intellectuals? No, discharge is for anyone and everyone who appreciates creativity in all its myriad forms. Be it static visual, audio or moving image; the written word or the deconstructed, non-linear form. The spoken word and noise.
All creativity is the springboard for discharge. It highjack’s a multitude of genres and disciplines and transposes them onto the internet. discharge is electronically transmitted art, be it via blog, myspace or whatever format possible, it can also be produced and seen in classic formats.
The discharge Chapbook. The discharge Building by Parts book. discharge has no rules. All contributors to discharge are responsible adults. discharge has no leaders although it has an elected body of rotating editors who oversee rather than dictate the flow of the group.
The aim of discharge is to profile creative people and to do away with the pretension of the art world.
Everyday people creating art everyday to an exceptional quality.
Art by barrow boys and girls.
discharge is international.

Ruela,
Yeah! How 'bout that?!

UTTERLY BRILLIANT!!! I adore the fact that it's been closed off like a bizarre time capsule.
It appeals to my sense of the 'so utterly ridiculous that it's pure genius'. I am, however, a person who likes to imagine that the Easter Island statues were created and buried to the neck by aliens just because it seemed like a funny thing to do. I can imagine them slapping each other on the backs and talking about future archaeologists will make of it all once the ape-race on this planet had evolved a little more.
Maybe that's just me...
