Comment by Jen Staggs on November 12, 2010 at 2:43pm: So I've been tweaking my embroidered postcards for a while and along came this group which flowed well with my evolution. I wanted to make the ladies more autonomous- I began sending them folded up within an envelope but wanted to make them more synchronous with mail art. The sculptural quality of haptics caught my imagination and BLAM, fourteen postcards later, I'm on a roll! You'll see the results soon, thanks for fostering my epiphany!

Comment by Elaine B(atgirl) on November 11, 2010 at 3:09am: I just saw a band in concert a week or two ago called Tesseract, and had to look up the term. Now I see it here. That's what they call a coyote for sure.
