First edition. Oblong small 8vo., 2ll., b&w photo frontispiece, unpaginated; [6pp.], stapled into the original paper wrapper; the upper portion illustrated with a monochrome b&w abstract photo and text in reverse white, the lower portion lists participants/contributors. N.p. [London], n.p. [the exploding galaxy], 1967. £200.00 Central vertical crease. Very rare, possibly one copy only on OCLC. A kind of score for an all-night Happening called ?The Bird Ballet' at the famous Roundhouse, in which many performance artists took on the personae of 62 real or imaginary birds to perform an improvised ballet masterminded by David Medalla. The audience were encouraged to come and go as they pleased, or even get some kip. Performances lasted 8 hours, one account suggests that rock groups such as The Soft Machine, Graham Bond, and the Crazy World of Arthur Brown accompanied bits. Seller Inventory # SENDOUT23
