Xx Jones's Blog – November 2018 Archive (10)
Mail from Cuan Miles
Cuan Miles often sends a tidy little package with postcard sized collages, smaller collages and even smaller ATCs. These are from two letters quite a while ago.
So far I have not been able to produce any ATCs myself…

Mail from Amalgamated Confusion
Here are two postcards sent by Amalgamated Confusion, sent many months apart. I love the minimalist approach. Three word poems, referencing history and the future!
I only recently discovered, that I may be Keith who is behind the mystery of Amalgamated Confusion. Thank you,…

Mail from Alan Brignull
Opening up my archives, and posting mail, which I have received, but not properly acknowledged, because ... life happened. Here is a lovely letter from Alan Brignull from Adanaland. I admire the neatness and precision of his envelopes and subtle details of his stamps and artistamps. But is there some madness lurking behind ? This collage may suggest…

Mail from Erni Bär
Erni is still alive and well, even though sadly not at IUOMA any more. One day some mail art historian will have to uncover what really happened there. Here is his latest mailing, a large A4 piece, in unusual (for Erni) subdued colours. It says “brain or mind” in German - interesting serendipity.

Mail from Katerina
Katerina and Erni are always the quickest to respond to any of my mailings. Impossible to keep up with. I like this autumn messages with leaves suggesting a stiff breeze.
