After the performance, Morgunblašiš dismissed Paik and Moorman's art as "clowning".

The photograph accompanying the original announcement for the concert showed a demure Moorman and the text noted that she was a distinguished graduate of Julliard.

Musica Nova gave in to pressure after the concert and issued a statement saying that it had been "an unforseeable accident".
