Hello, everyone!

We are glad to annouce theme for March and it is

 

The Spring of Music

 

Please compose some Musical Mail Art (Music and/or Mail Art) with this theme in mind.

We can start exchanging it during the month of March...and then find another theme for April.

I hope that this will get our Group off to a good start.

 

Cheers,

MF

Bonsoir Tina!

I suggest that you do both -- post here, and send your works to people.

I, for one, would like to exchange a Musical Spring peice with you.

My address is 1 rue de la Vieille Fontaine, F-11130 Sigean, France.

If enough folks in the Group would like to  xchange a a piece, we could have a Special Organised Mailing (I have experience with these), when everyone who 'signs up' for it exchanges a piece -- which can be the same or different ones -- to all other partcipants, on say 15 March -- which, coincidentally happens to be the ides of March.

Please let me know if you are interested in such a Mailing.

Regards, Val

Thank you

Tina

I'm a musician and do a LOT of music-related mail art! My musical training is in composition, and I use bits of my own music in my postcards and other mail art. Here's something that I sent out for a recent mail art call, "4 senses."

 

 

While I was thinking about what to make, I thought about how quite a few famous and successful musicians are blind, including Diane Schuur, Clarence Carter, Marcus Roberts, and George Shearing (who just passed away).

 

This mail art call came from a group in Russia that provides services to persons with disabilities, so I did a little bit of looking around to find a Russian-language Braille alphabet. The dots in the red and yellow squares spell out the Russian word for "music."

I'd be interested in sharing a DVD worth of music files if anyone's interested?

Bonsoir!

Folks have been asking should they send/swap music?

Well, I'm not sure that this aws the original intention of those who set up the Group, but this being IUOMA anything goes...so do what you want to (on the upbeat°;

I won't be showing off my rthymn guitar and Barorque and Renaissance alto recorder skills, but just stick to collages, etc.

EXACTLY 16 years ago I bought my Fender Stratocaster guitar.

Happy Birthday Strat!

Regards, Val

the error is

We're Sorry
The length of your group's description (895) exceeds the maximum (250)

 

which means: the text you copied and pasted is too log. Edit it until it has a length of max 250 letters.
