"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."

"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."

Amazing Bus Stop Find from Tallie

Posted on May 23, 2012 at 3:19pm 5 Comments

She found this near a city bus stop and captions it "oh what a tangled web" *trash--not dishonesty"

From what I can make out it says

"Lack of Honesty

lie, cheat and steal to get what I want

THAT would make me betray them and lose all…

Rusty Key Impressions from Pedro Bericat

Posted on May 23, 2012 at 3:12pm 3 Comments

This most interesting piece arrived from Pedro. I love anything laminated and these impressions of keys appear to be made with some kind of glue. He has left only the impressions of the keys and not the keys themselves. I need to figure out how to record a sound byte for his sound project         Thank you…

Diane, I'm glad it made it to you and that it works. The message I left on it is of no importance, the main thing is that there is a continued interaction from one mail artist to another. I have a couple more I'm working on to send out, maybe another one will make it's way around to you again.

I've been DKulted!!!  No doubts, where do I sign? :)  Also, is there a chance of rejection if I didn't believe ALL the rights to be right...would if help if I didn't believe the wrongs were right either?!>?

Nope, I didn't think you had dementia. I just figured you were overwhelmed with all the work of running DKult.

Diane, I received the DKult papers of black and white.  Very Inspiring.  I want to do something like this.  If so, I'll send it straight to you.  Thank You for the Coolness!

Diane, I got my fabulous feminine products trashpo bonanza today!  I would love to have seen the look on my quiet little religious mailman's face.  (I took all my envelopes with the word "shit" on them to the drop box just to spare him.)  So funny.  Anyway, definitely want to blog--as soon as I finish two books for Andrea!!!  How do I keep ending up with both books at one time?  Thanks so much for the fun funniness.  I made that word up.

Janine's poem, ab fab.  Did you look up Wahine?  I did.  I still didn't get it.  My first thought was it was a language error.  Then it hit me, and it's perfect! 

Janine, if you see this, you're becoming such a poet!

Your latest received and appreciated! I'm intrigued by the word "fruits" on it. I don't know what it means, but it started my brain working, and all kinds of ideas come up. I like that, things that are a bit mysterious. Thanks.

 

Plus I like the ribbon. Also don't know why, but I do.
