Writing

"The F-art Group was the group that stole radical dishonesty from the technocrats and made it into a theoretical basis for unified dynamism. I, however, transformed f-art's pathetic posturing into a systematic language of erasure. I am the premiere radical dishonestistin the world." —John Fell.

John Fell and the F-Art Group:

John Fell's interaction with the F-Art group were random and unexpected. Searching for Nikita Sunburn he met Phil O'Lodge in a Country & Western bar in Sturgeon Falls. Phil and John got quite drunk and ended up being thrown out by the bouncer for loud shouting of slogans like " We will not accept anymore culture" and "We reject Western Civilization."

Later while singing early Tyrannosaurus Rex songs they were beaten up by a hockey team and arrested for disturbing the peace. The next day, asked to leave town, Phil and John hitchhiked to Toronto where they met Mr.Dubious hanging from a ledge on Harbord street. From there the impressionable out of towners were easily overwhelmed by the flamboyant artistes in the F-Art Salons.

A smart cookie John Fell contirbuted to many of the drunken theoretical symposia held at F-Art headquarters and became a key exponent of Unifed Dynamism, Radical Dishonesty and the investigation of dumb ideas.

John Fell had interviewed Nikita Sunburn in 1972, prior to his meeting with Phil O'Lodge, and was well versed in his ideas. Many in the F-art group suspected him of being Nikita Sunburn.
