I am the "architect", mastermind and the
sole artist behind the s.c. "pioneering" electronic artworks I created during
the 1960's;
and have since then continuously been
artistically working on the very same visual
origin/material, and still expanding my
creation up-to-date.
Actually, it is a timeless art work in
its origin and do not deserve to be described as "history", 40 years
later.
A small number of people -
"technician's", "artist's", "producer's, and so on... who have assisted me
through the years have sometimes made unsubstantial claims to be the
"director's", "producer's", "technician's", "artist's" or the original
creator's of my works or even said that I was only an insignificant
member of a group. After all the acknowledgments and grants I have received,
nationally and internationally, and after all the world wide attention in media,
I got the last 40 years it is easy to understand certain peoples jealous
attitude and some of them are still persistent in making wrongful remarks and
malicious slanders about me and my artistic creations.
Thats Life!
