This and the next footnote are both extracts from László Beke's sexual-metaphoric lecture "Korszakhatár" [The Border of a Period]. Published in "Mûvészet a változó világban."
In 1980 the newest period of the Hungarian Avant-garde the sexual revolution of art arrived at its end... The movement of sexual liberation was determined by the strategy of Tamás Szentjóby that operated by means of the intermedial model of "Paralel-kurzus/Tanpálya" ["Parallel-Course/Training Field"; here is a complete version:

We can declare that except for the items listed under the last three points which proved to be too radical, the program was realized: the proposals were tried in practice and the consequences summarizing the outcome in theory have mostly been drawn. According to this the liberation of genres/media/mediums has been reached and as a result there is a healthy promiscuity now. By 1980 we can see that it is possible for all the genre/medium to unite with every genre/medium.
