LOL Val, no I have no idea please do tell:)

Hi Val,

I'm glad you got all the parts of my card and that the post service is so reliable! I'm impressed. The white things are milk box caps. I did that piece thinking about a meditation technique where you have to imagine the sound of one hand clapping. I tried to imagine looking through artificially created darkness. I've always thought that closed packagings are mysterious little places.

My thesis is about the history of fashion museums. Most of my friends think it's a boring subject, so I don't talk about it very much :P

Also, I've got your card! Thank you very much.

Tomorrow I'll be heading to Poland for some vacation time :D

Regards,

Ana

 Setting up your new art gallery is exciting.  Hard work and what the world needs more of, hurray to you.  Is it in Sigean?

Of course the invitation to Pollinators remains open.

I'm good...finally catching my breath after a chaotic couple of months. 

Going away again...didn't you just get back from Holland? Wherever you go for whatver reason I wish you safe and funfilled travels xoxo

P.S. Had some storm damage last week and thought of you.  Seems an Old Oak Walrus washed up on our deck...we don't really have fancy sea monsters in Alabama :)

Hey Val, got your Rockn' Mail Art...high tone and brain damage.  I wonder if that's what happened to me?!?! or maybe you?!?!

Got the word you have the perfect shoes and want the Red Bag so I will be sending it to you by the end of the week.  xoxoxoxo

Hello Val - thank you for the handy beer mat with added multi-lingual comic strips. I will make sure I put it to good use :>)

Hello Val! The doll on duck card has arrived. Thank you!

Hi Val,

Thank you for the Banana Day Sea Monster. Very scary, but in a cute sort of way (Banana Kawaii!?).

I understand - as a collector, I have many vinyl only friends! Nonetheless, my fav. genre [although I have a big prob w/ labels] is "avant prog," and there are new wonders being released all the time, thus - well, I can't imagine not following it! I've had the same TT since graduating HS (technics)

re age: moi aussi. i still collect music, but it began w/ weekly (pubescent) allowance spent on 45s at Woolworth's. 7"s - 100-200 left I imagine, not counted the lps in yrs, probably abt. 1000 . but just too lazy to deal w/ the tt most of the time, & moving them was just: ugh! so switched to CDs. If the music is really special to me though, I still aim for the LP - the sound is much better. NOOO mp3s though (unless that's the only format I can get something OP in. (Yet I will search & search, often for yrs., to get a legit non-lossy copy)

Hi Val - It was a comment you made to Neil Gordon: "Bonjour! A question, if I may: is that curly yellow thing that you use as your image, one of those bits of plastic that you put in the centre of a (perhaps earlier juke box) 45 vinyl record to make it fit on a…"

Yers Valentine you are right on the money! Its that old treasured plastic we play our beloved vinyl in!!!!! Long Analog Music!!!!!!

re "curly yellow thing": ha ha ha - how old are you? or are you joking? %_^

It's a fine line between farty and dignified...I try Val but sometimes I fall off the wagon ;)

Glad you got my silly mail. Have lots of fun in Holland!!!

Wow it got there fast! I can indeed send out another one, I am looking forward to seeing what your first impression was of the project though....
