A Blog Post For Flanéur Jen Staggs (Dallas, Texas USA) Ed and Grace.

Mail Art received 13th January 2010

Jens distinctive, well made, thoughtful work is always a real pleasure to receive.  1913. That was long ago. That was First…

Fluxus Bucks and Haptic/Asem(en)ic poem à la sauce Grigstaire - from Grigori Antonin

This week I got a bit richer. Grigori sent me these very colorful Fluxus Bucks. I had to check out what they actually are, and found a whole world of arty bucks. As you probably know there is a group dedicated to them on IUOMA and hosted by Ruud Janssen, check it out here. These seem to be from Julie Jefferies aka. ex posto facto, miss Fluxus Bucks herself. A couple of them seem pretty "done", I might send them back to…

Received from Gabby Cooksey

This little piece initially had me stumped.  It measures 5" x 3.5" and I was scared to try to open it.  So I carefully cut the tape holding it closed and got one end open. 



Inside I found this adorable little monster yelling HEY and on the other side this fluffy little sheep.
