As a few of my friends have been reminding me, this month is one year of IUOMA contact for me. Serendipity came to the celebrations. You’ll see why. The first piece of mail I ever received was from Jen Staggs. I received her Plagiarist pages two weeks ago – Jen has been weighed under her own studies, but took the time to send the pages back.
Bifidus sent me the second piece of mail art I had ever received from an IUOMA member - again without me asking. It was…

ZALOP – it’s a performance right? Whoever says NO in a deadpan voice, devoid of tone or apposite energy - quiet and sadly whispered or in a loud exclamation? However it is said, NO is a complex word for sure. ZALOP - the Fluxus word as original score was sent by Ruud on 15th December 2010.

I'm HOPING she doesn't suffer from Extreme Dorian Gray Syndrome, - I asked David to let me in on the secret...

Narratives. They carry their own beauty and sing their own meaning. And each artist has their own rhythm.
Lesley Magwood Fraser tells the tale of Cailleach, the stranger that hides within. She’s that girl that was, now she is the wise crone wearing a suit of wrinkled skin.

Heart Rob(ber) from Thom Courcelle (Washington U.S.A)
A FAB weave piece from Thom, WITH a wonderful letter – which opens with – This is for you simply because of the wonder-full-ness- icity of you! OK – who is NOT going to fall for a letter like that?
