I have moved.  I can't find the address list.  How do I update my address?

Thank you, Heide!

Comment by Heide Monster on January 19, 2021 at 1:08pm

Sharon, I was confused by this too at first.  But you can just send mail. 

The advantage of the friend thing is you can send messages privately.

Comment by Sharon Hall Shipp on January 19, 2021 at 12:21pm

Just a bit confused. I've joined a couple of groups in which people say they are are happy to send and receive work but do I have to send them a friend request first? 

Comment by Mail Art Martha on December 8, 2020 at 5:20pm

Heide; on storing artistamps. A very perceptive friend, not a mail artist so double so, gave me a plastic box with divisions to store screws, I believe. It works great.

Comment by David Stafford on December 8, 2020 at 4:34pm

The beauty of mail art is that it's largely defined by the artist and within each individual definition there are roads that lead to many other destinations.

Dare I call you Richard, M. Canard? You seem very involved in canards as well as mail art. I don't have 50 years to go, so given the progression of half-lives I'd better get cracking!

Comment by Daniel de Culla on December 8, 2020 at 8:24am

Mail Art is a primary factor in determining the nature of energy  received from the others, and by exeynsion the mail currents.

Comment by Richard Canard on December 8, 2020 at 7:49am

08.12.20 Dare Ms. Susan Weisberg, ..."Mail Art is so much more complex and multi-layered than I realized!" A very perceptive statement on your part...& still, you don't know the half of it.---- & while I have been involved in mail art for over 50 years now...  I too, &  still, don't know the half of it. Best to you. SinCelery, Richard Canard

Comment by Susan Weisberg on December 8, 2020 at 2:57am

Thanks, Heleen. Mail Art is so much more complex and multi-layered than I realized!
