Comment by De Villo Sloan on June 23, 2013 at 3:31pm: "Sardine Oil for WA Rodgers"

Comment by Susan McAllister on June 21, 2013 at 1:59am: Thanks, It looks like It was worked in some way. Gorgeous stuff.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on June 20, 2013 at 11:42pm: Susan, I have the book. It looks as if she used some sort of paper mache process (just guessing). It's totally realistic but not like someone just mailed muddy, rained-on paper.

Comment by Susan McAllister on June 20, 2013 at 11:15pm: WA's work is beautiful. Anyone know how she gets that decomposed paper? Does she find it like that or treat it in some way?

Comment by John M. Bennett on June 20, 2013 at 9:06pm: More Semic Asemics:

Comment by De Villo Sloan on June 20, 2013 at 9:04pm: WA Rodgers in Maryland, USA sent this really interesting decomposed Trashpo that has a great weathered asemic page. The decomposed paper makes some of the writing unintelligible. Eco-asemics? Trashemics?

Comment by De Villo Sloan on June 10, 2013 at 12:37am: Welcome K.S. Chambers & Raphael L. I hope this asemics group will be a resource for you. Make of it what best suits you. There are a few features I want to point out:

1) If you are interested in trading mail-art with asemic writing, you have over 100 contacts here to start.

2) Folks regularly post work in the comment stream here, so you can keep abreast of all the different things going on in the far-flung asemics community. Thanks John (and Jim) and Guido (and Cheryl) for the recent posts.

3) Please feel free to post your own work, ask questions or make comments. You have nothing to feel self-conscious about. As fortune would have it, the group ranges from some of the most recognized visual poets/asemic writers anywhere to members who are just plain curious. It has proven to be a very congenial and interesting group.

4) If you have a chance read through the old threads. We have had quite a time here!
