Comment by Thom Courcelle on February 9, 2024 at 4:39pm: Thanks for your gracious response, Rebekka! Please don't wait for my submission to arrive before swapping your other participants' submissions... I saw this project too late and won't really have enough time to commit.

These are really interesting questions, though, and perhaps I will journal and meditate on them on my own...and maybe share them with you in the future outside of the project date guidelines (just for fun). Cheers!

Comment by Re Schmi on February 5, 2024 at 11:24pm: thank you Thom: oh no! the 31st of january is right. sorry for my late response. Pls let me know if you still want to send something. swaps are made but I have some works here I received today. I can wait with the swap until I have yours..

Comment by Thom Courcelle on January 27, 2024 at 6:54pm: Oh no! There are two different deadline dates...the event listing says 31st of January 2024...

but the posterboard photo says 17th of May, 2024...

How much time do we actually have for your preference, Rebekka?

I'd like to work on something, but the end of January approaches quickly!
