Admiral Charcoal's Song
''Admiral Charcoal's Song'' is the first album by Rebecca Moore. It was released in 1995.

Larry Miller (artist)
Larry Miller (born 1944) is an American artist, most strongly linked to the Fluxus movement after 1969. He is "an intermedia artist whose work questions the borders between artistic, scientific and theological disciplines. He was in the vanguard of using DNA and genetic technologies as new art media." Electronic Arts Intermix, a pioneering international resource for video and new media art has said, "Miller has produced a diverse body of experimental art works as a key figure in the emergent installation and performance movements in New York in the 1970s... His installations and performances have integrated diverse mediums icand materials." Miller’s early works already demonstrate his personal understanding of the artist as an investigator of experience and of art as an experiment. In addition to his work with Fluxus and DNA, Miller's work can be divided into two distinct categories: 1) Miller's own video pieces, which were often components of his larger installations and perfo ...
