Kostelanetz looks to James Joyce's Finnegans Wake as an example of maximal art, though John Cage's Europera, a bricolage of costumes and sounds and even program notes from operas, might be a better example, as might be Cage's Organ (2)/ASLSP ("as slow as possible"), a piece that is now being performed in Halberstadt, Germany, a performance that is slated to last 639 years.
