Comment by Linda French on January 12, 2015 at 12:49am: I vote asemic suggestive. --Linda

Comment by De Villo Sloan on January 12, 2015 at 12:05am: Many thanks to Terry Owenby for the beautiful holiday card she sent me, which she claims is non-asemic. I post it here because I think maybe, just maybe it is asemic or a little asemic or asemic suggestive. Input would be appreciated.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on January 11, 2015 at 1:02am: Terry, I thought Nico had a great idea creating a book - I'd put it in the critical theory category - using cut & paste discussions from Facebook.

It fits right in with the current conceptual writing craze. For example, one of my favs is a book called "Night Moves" that is made of text cut and pasted from the comment streams underneath Bob Seeger Youtube videos.

Terry, maybe you can write a conceptual book too.

Comment by Daniel de Culla on January 10, 2015 at 7:02pm: Every Best Wish.

Season's Greetings.

Comment by Terry Owenby on January 7, 2015 at 3:00pm: I started reading Michael Jacobson's compilation of asemic writing discussions and it is long! I'll have to finish later. I am finding it very interesting reading, however, and like the fact that the conversations are all in one place. Thank you, Michael.

DVS, I will definitely let you know if I am fortunate enough to hear from Meeah.

Karen Redgreene, I really like your card DVS posted below. Beautiful work!

Comment by De Villo Sloan on January 7, 2015 at 1:27pm: Nico Vassilakis, that is.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on January 7, 2015 at 1:26pm: Michael Jacobson has compiled the results of several discussions about asemic writing that took place on FB. This resulted from the posting by Nico Vassilikis: "What the Hell is asemic writing?" I think there are many interesting responses, and it's a great conceptualist idea transcribing (basically c&p) this material from the internet. Congrats to Michael and Nico.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on January 6, 2015 at 2:37pm: Thanks to Erica Durante (New Jersey, USA) for asemic m-a.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on January 5, 2015 at 11:16am: Karen Redgreene (Oakland, CA) sent a great asemic card. Thanks Karen!

Welcome to anamerari from Brazil! I hope you'll share some work with us.

Terry, I'd be really interested to know if you receive anything from Meeah Williams.

Thanks JMB. Thanks museumofmailart.
