		La Monte Young. In 1962, Flynt announced his anti-art position in connnection with "general acognitive culture," later "veramusement," finally "brend." Flynt's early texts achieved only scattered publication unitl they were collected in his book Blueprint for a Higher Civilization (Milan, 1975).
		Flynt was a graduate student in Economics at the New School in the Seventies, studying with Thomas Vietorisz and Michael Hudson. He successfully defended his Ph.D. dissertation on socialist economic allocation in April 1978, but in a characteristically eccentric gesture, never graduated.
		Flynt began to show as an artist in 1987 to revive genuine concept art in a more realized form. He showed Logically Impossible Space at the Venice Biennale in 1990, and his photographic portfolio "The SAMO(c) Graffiti" at the Lyon Biennale in 1993.

		Violinist Henry Flynt, who is also a highly-productive (and unpublished) philosopher launched an ambitious project to found a "new american ethnic music" that should fuse avantgarde music (particularly the hypnotic aspects of minimalism and free-jazz) and hillbilly/country music.
		Flynt stop playing music in 1984, despite the fact that most of his music has been released "after" he stopped playing.
		The 41-minute raga is dominated by the languid phrases of the violin, that test the border between melodic fragments and distorted tones.

		Flynt's fiendishly bowed fiddle, with its tricky double-stops and blast-off glissandos, is part of an uncompromising and unconventional life's work that has, until recently, remained hopelessly obscure--a rumor of a footnote.
		Flynt devoted nearly 20 years to developing his music, a sui generis mix of New York-school minimalism, Indian classical music, and the sounds and forms of Appalachia, Dixie roadhouses, and other loamy American roots-music cellars.
		But it is impossible to address Flynt's music meaningfully without putting it in the context of the elaborate philosophical and aesthetic inquiry to which he has given his entire adult life.

		On BPHB Volume 2, avant-hillbilly master fiddler Henry Flynt scuffles through a most peculiar set of electrified and acoustic bumpkin fiddle howls and screeches circa early to mid 1960s.
		Though it remains Henrys single meeting with the instrument, over the course of some 13 odd minutes, he finds out everything he needs to know about the horn and gets into some pretty hairy free squelch and squeal territory in the process.

		Flynt recorded and performed this music regularly up until his retirement, although most of the performances too place at small underground music venues, many of them in New York City.
		Flynt is strongly inquisitive of many concepts of our society people take for granted, including popular notions of what constitutes art and entertainment.
		He was particularly influenced by music or musicians that had some form of ecstatic involvement with their work, for example he regarded John Coltrane as completely unique in the history of jazz because of the intense energy he brought to work.

	Henry Flynt - New American Ethnic Music Vol. 2: Spindizzy (Recorded)
		I'm not sure whether Flynt is playing all instruments himself, through overdubbing, or if he is merely composing for other musicians.

		There is something amazing to me about Henry Flynt; not your "typical" outsider artist, he slugged away at his music for years, only now really getting the discography he deserves.

	Henry Flynt and the Insurrections - I Don't Wanna (Locust)
		Much of the work with which Flynt has made his name is the product of his own strains of ethnic American music, that is, an amalgam of folk, country, and bluegrass played through a minimalist, sometimes psychedelic haze.
		Flynt, however, takes a different route, one far from his usual musical paths: electric rock.
		Whether or not I Don't Wanna would be finding the light of day were Flynt not involved is a question that can't be conclusively answered, though it seems safe to posit that only the most resourceful and determined collectors of obscure 60s rock might have found great appeal in these recordings.

		Although Flynt explored a lot of different styles of experimental music, being primarily a violin player, his main interests lay in “experimental hillbilly music” and Eastern ragas.
		Whatever Flynt’s intentions were, they strike some primal chord, deep within the oldest part of the brain.
		Flynt certainly doesn’t limit himself to the raga style.

	CD Review of Henry Flynt - Back Porch Hillbilly Blues - Volume 1 on Locust @ jazzreview.com
		Henry Flynt is a riddle inside a puzzle inside an enigma — we may never figure him out but it’s nonetheless fun to try.
		A violinist and composer, Flynt is a shadowy figure in the avant garde world — he’s been associated with other towering tres avant icons including Yoko Ono and proto-minimalist La Monte Young, as well as briefly playing in The Velvet Underground — his music has been more heard-about than actually heard.
		Flynt’s music is not easy to categorize, mainly because he purposely tries to blur and shatter the divisions betwixt “high” and “low” art forms, between country/rural blues and “hillbilly” (bluegrass, Appalachian mountain music) and minimalism and ecstatic free jazz.

		The psychedelic sounds of musical pioneer Henry Flynt's drone works with collaborator C.C. Hennix are quietly becoming the stuff of legend.

	* Dusted Reviews - Henry Flynt and the Insurrections *
		Henry Flynt: present in the 1960s, absent in the 1970s, one lone-show cassette release in the 1980s, absent again through the 1990s, omni-present in the old new millennium.
		On “Missionary Stew,” Flynt plays the guitar like he can’t quite figure out where to place the notes, how to string them together; it infuses the music with free spirit, something deMaria responds to with rolling drums, accenting different moments, lending Flynt’s nasal, declamatory whine of a vocal the central role.
		Yes, you can hear American folk/hillbilly/blues music of the early 20th century feeding through Flynt’s song-writing; yes, it also sounds rather like any number of rock bands who’ve leaned on the twin crutches of loose-limb playing and classicist chord progressions.

		The 21st century has been pretty good to Fluxus fiddler Henry Flynt, which is funny, as the four decades previous yielded but one cruddy, dubbed cassette from a gallery show in 1981.
		Following two excellent explorations of Flynt's obsession with the demented drone behind mountain music on his Back Porch Hillbilly Blues series, the Locust label digs up dead weathermen from the basement tapes for their fifth release by the man, documenting a (lone?) rehearsal from 1966.
		Whether you hear his strumming patterns as inept or outsider, goony or genius, Henry Flynt sucks in all aspects of time for his sound.

		At the same concert, Henry Flynt, a mathematics student who had left Harvard University to work on a book linking avant-garde aesthetics and mathematics, refused to include a piece on the program.
		He therefore did not present a work and decided to schedule a concert of his own pieces that was to be performed in his own mind.[34] Flynt referred to his own as well as Young's compositions as "concept art" and is perhaps the first person to use this term.
		Both Young's and Flynt's "word pieces" began to move away from the art equals life paradigm because they entailed a level of philosophical abstraction that did not refer to the real material world.

	RECORDED: EXPERIMENTAL MUSIC (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		This record deals with Flynt's most "electronic" work to date, but the modern-experimental aspects of Flynt's work are, as always, in the service of deeply rooted ecstatic hillbilly sensibility.
		We are extremely excited to release "New American Ehtnic Music Volume 2: Spindizzy" by Henry Flynt, which is the second release in our new series documenting the archival recordings of this previously obscure, genius musician.
		Flynt was initially (1962) a composer of the post-Cage school who quickly turned completely against modernist music and created his own Flynt genres, primarily through radicalizing Southern musical forms like Bluegrass, Country, and Country Blues-elevating them to an enchanted level, much as Coltrane did with the jazz of his time.

		Flynt's fiddle is accompanied by tamboura lending this piece a distinctly Middle Eastern flavor.
		Henry Flynt's "Spindizzy" is the second volume in his series of "New American Ethnic Music," following the incredible document "You Are My Everlovin' / Celestial Power", an earlier assortment of country-fried, Fluxus inspired minimalism.
		Flynt had been an associate of both legendary '60s minimalist LaMonte Young and Fluxus figurehead George Macunias, finding his unique personal signature smack in between these two pillars of the '60s Fluxus scene as a conceptually / technically astute form of minimalism using the everyman aesthetic of Appalachian folk.
