"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Even though it's MinXus-Lynxus, I hope Trashpo people will consider the "Can You Draw the Mink? Famous Artist Talent Scout Contest." The subject matter is taxidermy - an ancient stuffed mink from somebodies' garage. Taxidermy could be a whole thing for Trashpo.

the disposable art trashpot!!Pure genius Erni-for art about trash, by and for trash, made OUT of trash

found this list today. I was very impressed at how orderly it is. You can tell that someone wrote it as an instructional manual for shopping-or at least that is how I interpret it

Comment by Erni Bäryesterday           

That's not as much beside the point as it sounds. I myself have two big boxes plus five smaller ones full of mail art I had been sent.

                Comment by Diane Keys yesterday           

Maybe someone should do a mail art exhibit in which hundreds of pound piles of mail art are put into a heap and visitors have to dig through it to view
