Definitions of Neoism and Neoist activity are currently disputed. The main source of this are splits within the Neoist network which created vastly different, tactically distorted accounts of Neoism and its history. Undisputed, however are the origins of the movement in the mid- to late 1970s Canada, and the coinage of the multiple identity "open pop star" Monty Cantsin through the mail artist David Zack (died ca. 1995) (perhaps with the collaboration of artists Maris Kudzins and performance artist Istvan Kantor). Schisms followed in the mid-1980s. Questions and concerns arose about whether the open Monty Cantsin moniker was being overly associated with certain individuals.
