The remake of Untitled-14 by Ruud Janssen



The remake of Untitled-14 by Ruud Janssen. Nico van Hoorn sent me a card from his series Untitled. I transformed it to a Title 15 card and documented it with a video while making the card. A Mail-Art Performance in the tradition of Fluxus. Made by Ruud Janssen on November 15th 2009. More details see also Nico's blog at: http://nicovanhoorn-mail-art.blogspot.com/

New LOGO for the IUOMA

Currently I am looking for a new logo for the IUOMA. When members like the new logo, it will be used to publish some PR materials which will be distributed (stickers, stamps, etc). So currently all logo's are collected at: http://iuoma-network.ning.com/ in a special group , direct link is:

http://iuoma-network.ning.com/group/iuomaprmaterials/forum/topics/new-logo-for-the-iuoma

So, if you can create something for the IUOMA it will be considered. I will assign a group of multimedia students to the tast to transform the suggestions in real digital products which can be processed and printed professionally in high resolution.

IUOMA one year on NING



Tomorrow the IUOMA-Platform is 1 year old

See: http://iuoma-network.ning.com/

The concept of the IUOMA started in 1988

Mail-Art itself started way back in the 60-ies

Mail from Nico van Hoorn - Netherlands



A card that Nico van Hoorn produced today and that is documented with this video. This piece of Mail-Art still has to arrive here! That is how mail-art goes these days. I can see how it is produced and can just hope it does the travelling o.k.

Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
I like communication, art, paper, painting and concepts. The ideal combiation for doing Mail-Art. Worked with rubberstamps as a child and started sending out letters as soon as I could write. Discovered that it was called mail-art in 1980. Have been discovering ever since and in the last years also promoting this free cultural exchange.

Flowers for my brother

Beginning this year The tragedy with my brother took place. A lot of mail-artists send in Flowerscard for my brother. Most he did see before he died on March 11th 2009. The complete collection of mail is now slowly being scanned and will be published on a blog in memory of my brother. You can fins it on:

I am still in the process of scanning and publishing, but the collection will slowly grow and be complete.… Continue

Statistical programms removed

I removed the statistical programm at this NING site because I believe it brought some pop-up advertisings and also caused the site not to work correctly. Please let me know when you find faults. I will try to correct them. Thanks for the mail-artists that reported the eroors to me. - Ruud

Many thanks, Ruud, for all the goodies that came in the mail today. That was very FAST! I see you have two "my page"s, so I am posting at both. My rubber stamps are ready for tomorrow's mail to you...and now I shall start to work on rubber stamp designs in ENGLISH :-)
by the way....My name ends in a funny "sou"=NIKOLTSOU,
though I accept "Nikoltson"
(makes me sound Dutch or Scandinavian?)
I don't mind really.
Thanks for all,
Katerina

Ruud,
I'm pleased that Fluxus 1 arrived to you in working order. You should know that there are others in the world: The other racers in the Fluxus fleet: Angela Behrendt has Fluxus 2, and Samuel Montalvetti has Fluxus 3. I have Fluxus 4 resting on my layout table.

I will have another mailing at the end of the month. Much time over the last three months I have spent learning new software: Adobe Photoshop Elements and Corel Draw X4 Graphic Design program. More soon via postal letter. Regards to Litsa.
