Asemic Writing for Mail-Artists

Thanks to Fike for linking to the definition of "appropriation." I think we have been using the terms "collaboration," "appropriation," and "plagiarism" (or copyright violation) interchangeably. Kerri's case is "as clear as an azure sky in summer to me." But that's my opinion only.

More and more I see the term "appropriation" used negatively in literary studies (as in "cultural appropriation") even as the current avant adopts appropriation as a valid activity.

Perhaps I am mixing terms. But appropriation can be a violation or I daresay a kind of rape. Cultural appropriation in the process of colonization can be a violation. I think it's true for nations or individuals. Theft of someone's creative production is violation of an individual, whether you choose to call it appropriation or not.

So, you know, I think our goal should be sharing asemicss & vispo & not colonization.

You can see Moan left and is welcome back as far as I am concerned. But there are 159 others here.

Thanks to Litsa Spathi, Osvaldo & others who are sharing work.

For your information. Moan Lisa left IUOMA. So that explains the missing group member.

Somebody DID leave the group. I don't want anyone being made to feel uncomfortable. So let's cut this sh--t. Take it to Facebook.

Banned? Did I threaten to ban somebody? I don't ban people.

Please, let's just be respectful of each other in this group.

Let's have collabs be by mutual consent. Let's not have any appropriations without permission. None of us can control what happens on the larger internet.

And this isn't the Court of Asemics. We can't settle disputes justly & fairly.

People can draw their own conclusions. Let's move on.

Now...Moan Lisa, steal this, with your hand and pens!...not a computer scanner, thats not stealing, thats copying, then, show us all how you stole from my being to meld it with your own and create a work that surpasses the original's "good" artist work and show me "greatness" maybe then reconsider the intent oquoteand your ethics.

I was going to post a pic, be more involved positively ...but, when I read the words "street art shenanigans" from a person who just posted a pic of a Pablo Picasso quote?...presumably to use a Bansky reference to support his disrespectful behavior and allude to his own belief in his greatness by stealing...oh, look Banksy did it! I steal does not equal I'm great and on a clearly more philosophical level does not understand the quote in context in a nondigital age when it was stated...furthermore, disrespects street artists in general just a day after this insanity of one simple request by me. I don't argue with Trump supporters either, and the ignorance and intentional hurt displayed here by the group's friend Moan Lisa for his own benefit more than tears me apart, it makes me want to avoid this page. Not that I've figured out how to post a pic without a computer but no matter. I'm not going to open a spam mobile website and get you all to join under the 201st alias I've created and ask you to enter your info then hack your stuff. I'll just look away and hope for peace of mind.
