An explosively pumped flux compression generator ( EPFCG) is a device used to generate a high-power electromagnetic pulse by compressing magnetic flux using high explosive . An EPFCG only ever generates a single pulse as the device is physically destroyed during operation. They require a starting current pulse to operate, usually supplied by ...
Magnetic flux. In physics, specifically electromagnetism, the magnetic flux through a surface is the surface integral of the normal component of the magnetic field B over that surface. It is usually denoted Φ or ΦB. The SI unit of magnetic flux is the weber (Wb; in derived units, volt–seconds), and the CGS unit is the maxwell.
Water Yam, First Edition, 1963. Water Yam is an artist's book [1] by the American artist George Brecht. Originally published in Germany, June 1963 [2] in a box designed by George Maciunas and typeset by Tomas Schmit, it has been re-published in various countries several times since. It is now considered one of the most influential artworks ...
Dick Higgins. Dick Higgins (15 March 1938 – 25 October 1998) was an American artist, composer, art theorist, poet, publisher, printmaker, and a co-founder of the Fluxus international artistic movement (and community). [1] Inspired by John Cage, Higgins was an early pioneer of electronic correspondence. [2] Higgins coined the word intermedia ...
A permanent magnet synchronous generator is a generator where the excitation field is provided by a permanent magnet instead of a coil. The term synchronous refers here to the fact that the rotor and magnetic field rotate with the same speed, because the magnetic field is generated through a shaft-mounted permanent magnet mechanism, and current is induced into the stationary armature.
Fluxus was an international, interdisciplinary community of artists, composers, designers, and poets during the 1960s and 1970s who engaged in experimental art performances which emphasized the artistic process over the finished product. [ 1][ 2] Fluxus is known for experimental contributions to different artistic media and disciplines and for ...
Mieko Shiomi (塩見 允枝子, Shiomi Mieko, born 1938) is a Japanese artist, composer, and performer who played a key role in the development of Fluxus.A co-founder of the seminal postwar Japanese experimental music collective Group Ongaku, she is known for her investigations of the nature and limits of sound, music, and auditory experiences.
Geoffrey Hendricks (July 30, 1931 in Littleton, New Hampshire – May 12, 2018) was an American artist associated with Fluxus since the mid 1960s. He was professor of art at Douglass College, Rutgers University, where he taught from 1956 to 2003 and was associated with Fluxus at Rutgers University, Allan Kaprow, Roy Lichtenstein, and Lucas ...
