 WAITING LIST: We encourage people who want to participate to add your name, even after we reach the 20 mark. Experience shows that the line-up is "in flux" at the beginning.

The book page format will be the same as for the Asemic collaborations (1-3) - 2 sheets folded A4 - ie 8 sides. You will need to make 20 copies and post to each person on the list - the addresses will be added to this discussion once we have got confirmation from all the participants. Again - these collaborations only work if everyone commits and endures!

Got my second chapters from Janine Weiss-Vuille today-the ones inspired by Nicolas de Stael--beautiful collaged photo vispo. the stitching is a fantastic touch as the use of torn paper looks like textiles. thank you Janine. I will be sending mine to you shortly:)
