Dear colleagues!

The Strike as such is an aesthetic/ethical operation on the deformed body of the reigning myth.

The Strike, by definition, is declared on the territory between genesis 3; 15 to 24.

This obscure territory is the theo-logical link of the sweaty cause and deadly efect.

The Gustav Metzger-Stewart Home Proposition englightened the social implications of this relation: the Art-Strike clearly defined its position on the market of the myth.

The International Parallel Uninon of Telecommunications (IPUT), (involved in the cultivation of newly-established dictionaries of extra-mythological languages, practicing different forms of Art-Strikes under the general title: the Subsistance Level Standard Project 1984 W) calls for an international and simultaneous event in the frame of the Art-Strike (1990-1993).

The General Art-Strike (May 1991) and the Perpetuum Mobile.
