Charlotte Moorman and Nam June Paik "The Originale"

Uploaded by FredStern on Dec 14, 2006
Charlotte Morman talks about how she met her long time artistic partner Nam June Paik. The details of the establishment and presentation of the 1964 premier performance of Stockhausen's "Originale" in New
Yok is described in very funny detail. She tells about George Maciunas (Fluxus) picketing the performance. Filmed in 1980 under a grant from the National Endowment for the arts. It is an excerpt from the work "Charlotte Morman and the New York Avant Garde." by Fred Stern

I had never seen this before - thank you so much for uploading - Moorman is such a great story teller and I had no idea she had a Southern accent! By sheer chance I found this today after buying the promotinal leaflet for the Originale only yesterday .

@instantpud Nam June would have loved it. In fact, he probably influenced in a strange way its creation.

Dear Fred, thank you for sharing this excellent quality video both in picture and in comment. Charlotte seems such a funny character. She was at / initiated some key art performances with such amazing people. Lively, the world of and around her continuously stretched to new limits. While she innocently tells that it happened almost without her. Masterfully enjoyable. A great artist to remember.

Moorman would (would have) understood the concept of plastering the walls of holy places with thousands of handprints (the ink used must be Speedball black water soluble) of people from all walks and stations of life. A chirographic blueprint of souls in manifestation. Imagine Charlotte materializing before a stupefied crowd, wearing a WWII gas mask, poised to play disparate notes on a cello. So futuristic a being for the art scene of the 20th centur and straight out of Arkansas too!

Nam June Paik would be posting - big time. He would coordinate a thousand posters on a thousand screens in Grand Central Station and each part would be part of his performance... HIS performance. It could be a permanent mural there!
