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

Ahem, officially called a "mail artists' meeting".

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on February 1, 2012 at 6:28pm

Party weekend: February 18 - 19...in Paris,

come one, come all. We shall invade Dean's WC!

(Please don't change that LED toilet seat yet!)

Comment by Nancy Bell Scott on February 1, 2012 at 6:17pm

You need to have a major party in there, Dean.

Comment by Dean aka Artist in Seine on February 1, 2012 at 5:33pm

Jennifer, I don't think we should go there.  There are over 650 lights, music turns on when you lock the door, laser light show, projection of a clock on wall, 12 strobe lights, the ceiling turns, black lights, and I'm sure I'm forgetting some of the things that work off the 14 switches and dimmers that are in there.  When we bought our place my wife said I could have one room to myself which I could decorate as I wanted .... she gave me the WC!

Comment by Jennifer Jones (JJalltheway) on February 1, 2012 at 5:06pm

Wow Dean, you have a red LED light up toilet seat!? My bathroom feels so boring now.

Comment by Dean aka Artist in Seine on February 1, 2012 at 12:32pm

It's the "Love you" at the end.  I hate that part as it means I have to do the things on the list.  I'm a lucky man indeed.

Comment by DKeys on February 1, 2012 at 12:22pm

Dean, what is her secret to getting you to do all those things (assuming you do)?

Comment by Dean aka Artist in Seine on February 1, 2012 at 10:37am

Funny, I find notes all the time, but I never think of using them in Mail Art.  I think I'll try to include them in a few works.  They normally go something like this;

Saturday: Dean: wash windows, take out rubbish, hoover (means vacum clean), we need fresh milk, cold wash in machine - DON'T put the clothes in the dryer, fix the ceiling fan, change the red LED light toillet seat back to the normal one before Val arrives, remember we are out tonight so don't start any Mail Art ten minutes before we have to leave.  Love you, V.
