Fluxus in Aberystwyth 1968

They say that if you can remember the '60s you weren't there… we are hoping to prove this wrong.
We are looking for Aberystwyth residents and students of 1968 who have memories of a 3 day art event that took place at the Parish Hall (now the Castle Theatre) in November of that year.
It was called Miss Rainbow Day, Brian Lane and the First Dream Machine and was organised by the Guild of Students (including John Osborne, Bob Marsland, Steve Mills) as part of the annual Aberystwyth Arts Festival.
It featured a 12-hour concert of electronic music, the first Fluxclinic, a session of total theatre, a session of minimal theatre and a Fluxus Concert. White Balloon Event, Darkness Pieces, Leaflet Concert and Panic Dances were some of the highlights…
If you have any memories of these events, or know somebody who does, please get in touch!
Any material will be of interest - even vague memories of activities caught out of the corner of your eye.
