Talk:Ray Johnson

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As of 8/20/2006, There is someone selling Ray Johnson artwork on eBay, or artwork that looks like Ray Johnson artwork, for about $10.00 a piece. The descriptions are extremely odd.

[edit] Copyleft

AFAIK Ray Johnson came up with the term and concept "copyleft" independently and had no influence on the hackers later; it was parallel evolution, like the octopus's eye. Apparently pop art and hackerdom were autonomous autarkies, removed in time as well as in space. If the mileaux had any overlap, I haven't come across any documentation of it whatsoever. Ray Johnson has props as the precursor of open source in the arts if not software.
