THE ONLY RADIO HAPPENING EVER BROADCAST

Vostell, Wolf
100 MAL HUREN UND SPIELEN - EIN AKTIONSSPIEL VON WOLF VOSTELL
Koln. Westdeutscher Rundfunk. 1969.
30 x 21cm, 31pp. Bound in original plastic folder. The typewritten transcript of Vostell's groundbreaking, and as far as we know, unique Radio-Happening, produced in conjunction with WDR and their Literarisches Studio on 19 May 1969. Edited by Peter Faecke: no other such Fluxus Happening event has ever been staged on the radio (although there were tv equivalent). Vostell's was a subversive broadcast in which listeners were encouraged to pursue absurd pseudo-ritual actions in public. Includes humourous outburts such as "Lecken Sie beim Huren die Schaltknupfe Ihres Radios!"  - "Lick on hearing the trigger buttons on your radio!"  A very scarce early document with some humour.
