Jones first started experimenting with mechanical instruments in 1962, creating objects like musical boats, solar music umbrellas and a pedaled vehicle that pulled handmade instruments on wheels.

In Performance
Etats-Unis
Lucky restock! After studying with composers John Cage and Earle Brown, Joe Jones became a prominent figure in Fluxus, contributing to the movement’s first “yearbox” alongside La Monte Young, György Ligeti and Nam June Paik. Beginning in late 1961, Jones began constructing his own music machines – drawing inspiration from the calliopes, automata and orchestrions of the 19th and early 20th century to create self-playing ensembles of stringed instruments, percussion and woodwinds – “played” throug…

Back and Forth Exhibition Sound
? Records
The third Joe Jones archival CD release on this label. A single 31-minute recording of said exhibition, August 31st, 1985. Jones' mechano-constructs whirring/clanking all the while, generally refusing to sit still. Back cover shots display several motor-agitated automatons with single beaters attached to end(s), pre flail. Heard: motorik-accent hand drum, metallic ping, bells, possibly glockenspiel (?), distant melodic informations, presumably of aleatoric/wind-based selection. Joe Jones' music …

Fluxus Ain\'t Dead
Private
Gray-area bootleg issue, with paste-on xerox sleeve. No details on the source or date (or anything). But another essential document of the Fluxus-associated mechanical music machines of Joe Jones. If you're interested in Orchestral Sound Art, no wall will stand in the way of acquisition... The music machines of legendary Fluxus artist Joe Jones are a paradox of prepared sounds voicing astoundingly human bursts of free-flight sonic caterwaul. Why is it that a roomful of musicians can't muster the…
