Haptic Poetry

Information

Haptic poetry combines characteristics of typography and sculpture to create work not only to be seen but to be touched. This group is for anyone who values sense of touch as much as sense of sight.

Comment by Tomoe N on January 8, 2015 at 2:48pm: Hi spend more time on Facebook and did not check the invitation. Thank you Bifidus Jones!

I want to make some recycle art.

Where I am sending it to?

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on November 28, 2014 at 11:21am: Wow...it's been a loooong time chatting here.

And there has been lots of "Haptic Werewollf" mail art:

but no word from Bifidus in a long time :-(

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on March 30, 2014 at 7:17pm

Bifidus was in my mail box on Friday, March 28, 2014...

but was it sent months ago?

Where are you, Bifidus? Here on a blog:

Bifidus Jones sighting...yay!

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on March 16, 2014 at 1:36pm: Erni, good to see you back at Haptic!

Now where might be Bifidus?

TIME for sandpo?

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on August 29, 2013 at 3:21pm: Yay! Good to see some are arriving, Bifidus!

I sent out a few "25" IUOMA cards but I only put on 78 euro cent stamps...as has been the postage for some time, since it was raised back then from 75.

Today I discovered that Greek postage has been raised again

OMG! to 90 cents! Steep hike up!

Looks like I will be sending out less and less :-(

Comment by Bifidus Jones on August 28, 2013 at 6:23pm: Received from the Sandpo Queen of Greece:

This bit of Hapticness was a wonderful treat to find in the mailbox. Thanks, Katerina!

Comment by Bifidus Jones on August 1, 2013 at 10:53pm: Received from Vaida adiaV, Lithuania:

Those paper pinwheels are terrific! Thanks, Vaida!
