"E" est mort, vive "E"!
July 3, 2066 at 6pm to February 17, 2067 at 7pm – GUIVRY (France)
My Blog
The year 2025 was a strange one. Closed my P.O. Box, and also closed the iuoma.org domain name. The bills went up while I wanted to cut dodn the costs. So that meant some changes it the traditional communication that was possible.
Yes online I have a large presence and others can still easily contact me in a digital way. What will happen in 2026 isn't sure yet. I will turn 67 years old and that means working for money stops and you are forced to deal with getting older and get all kind of freedom for it in return.
IUOMA.ORG
Some of the old content of www.iuoma.org will be placed on a new blog that is located at:
P.O.Box 1055 closed
Since Januari 2025 the P.O. Box I used for IUOMA is closed.
All mail sent to this box will eventually be returned to the sender.
Seems P.O. Boxes used by individual persons isn't made easy and has gotten way to expensive.
Also the domain-name iuoma.org will eventually vanish from the network.
From "E" in 2011
A lareg foam rubberstamp made by "E" in 2011 which I have been using for outgoing mail-art since then.

Profile Information
- Mail-Artist since:
- 1980
- My Website (without http://):
- http://www.facebook.com/pages/Ruud-Janssen/126853977330127
- Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
- I like communication, art, paper, painting and concepts. The ideal combination 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.

Dearest Ruud, I haven't sent Mail Art for a while now, if you think my groups are too off topic tell me, and I'll stop posting images, and if you want you can delete them. A fraternal hug. Bruno Cassaglia

Hello,
Not Dutch, but Belgian. I've lived in Tokyo for over 30 years.
I can guess there have been a lot of changes, very interested to find out!
