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

Comment by Not Hi Ng on May 25, 2012 at 12:29am: Wow, I am so incredibly honored. One day I'm digging in dumpsters and the next thing you know I'm nominated for the highest honor a Trashpo mail artist can receive. I think I'll take a bath and have a beer.

Comment by DKeys on May 24, 2012 at 7:34pm: Totally agreed DVS-this is seriously prizeworthy. I see this as a mail art extension of his found object hippie bus. i hesitated to post it because it is going to be circulated, but just couldn't NOT post it.

Comment by Not Hi Ng on May 24, 2012 at 5:41pm: Thanks DK for posting this and thanks to everyone for your words which encourage.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on May 24, 2012 at 2:58pm: I nominate Not Hi Ng for the TrashPo Litzer Prize: Invention of the Trash Talk Generator. Genius!

Comment by DKeys on May 24, 2012 at 1:47pm: The Traveling Trashpo Automated Miracle Trash Talk Generator from Not Hi Ng

He tells me he found these greeting card recorders in a dumpster and discovered they worked. He was inspired by the Road Kill Tour and thus created this amazing interactive art. The idea is to record a message for the next person who receives it. Not to figure out who to send to and what to say!!!

Comment by DKeys on May 23, 2012 at 8:04pm: Congrats Shaman/Chaplain Neil!! You do us proud. Your trash stash is growing? I love warm weather so you can walk and find good trash!
