Nam June Paik, 'Robot K-456' and Charlotte Moorman (1964). Photo by Peter Moore @ Estate of Peter Moore/VAGA.NYNew York in the 1970s, without cellphones, the internet, globalization, etc., was a very different place and arguably more vibrant (though I'm glad Central Park isn't like it used to be.)

Tuesday will feature one facet of this multi-talented man's enormous body of worktmdash;The Avant Garde Festivals of Charlotte Moorman.
