Collaborative Mail Art Books

Mi libro del Proyecto 26 listo!

Mil gracias a todos los participantes!

Muchas gracias a Cheryl por llevar adelante ésta gran iniciativa y a DVS por todo su aporte siempre tan estimulante.

Me encantó realizarlo y el resultado es maravilloso!

OH--phew! So I'm not the only one who hasn't bound her copy of project 26 yet. I feel less a sluggard now :)

Rosa, your finished 26 is an inspiration!

Rosa that looks great. Not sure i can bind mine.  :(

Thanks everyone

Hi Cheryl and De Villo Sloan, I'd love to hear more and take part in the new Visual Poetry project,. Hope this is the right place to comment.

Best wishes

Susan

For sure the right place Susan :-) - Participants so far - De Villo, Cheryl, Matthew Stotle, Susan Mortimer, Marie Wintzer. We are battling to load a discussion - but it will be up shortly then everyone can move there - see you in a moment :-) X 

New "Favorite Visual Artist" project. Yes, indeedy, me want to join in!

20 places shall fill up before the hour has passed, I am certain!

Welcome to all the new members of the Collaborative Books group - good to have you on-board :-) X

Hey, all this happened while I was sleeping!! Do I miss out? Put me down anyway, just in case everyone gets RSI or Alzheimers.

"You snooze you lose"? No, not at all. I will add you to the list Vizma. Thanks to everyone for the enthusiastic response. After Cheryl is awake and has fed the monkeys, we'll figure out how to include everyone in an edition(s) that can be successfully bound and all that technical stuff.

Samuel Montalvetti's Visual Poetry group at the IUOMA (one of our neighbors) is an incredible resource for this project.

Thanks for the invitation. I have already written a poem on visual artists. Can I contribute my poem to the book? Please let me know.

Please will the VISPO book collaborators who signed up on De Villo's discussion yesterday CONFIRM their places and put their addresses in the new thread ADDRESSES AND CONFIRMATION OF PARTICIPATION - we have people on the waiting list - thank you :-) X

Oh sorry Cheryl, I put my name down on the list today.  I guess I must be on the waiting list?  I was out of town and couldn't get to the website yesterday!

Technical question: Does anyone know where United Statians can buy A4 paper that isn't white?

Nancy, we must have spent two weeks discussing the A4 situation in Asemics 16. The consensus was that the US 8.5 x 11 size is so similar to A4 they are interchangeable.

Right, Sloan, US Americans who used their "legal size" (8.5 x 11 in.) papers were just fine in our boekies of A4. A bit of "fringe" is nice in an artists' book, say what?

Now then, question:

The A4 will be folded like Asemics #1-3...that is the folded edge on the left and the page measures 15 cm WIDTH and 21 cm HEIGHT (aprox 6in width x 9in height ). Yes?

Me don't know about "hot dog and "hamburger" pages, Lisa ;-) Hee, heee, heee!

Nancy - your question has been answered? De Villo is right - your standard US 8.5 x 11 is fine :-) X

Yes, thank you all, got it. (And for the extra info, Lisa--can't wait to check out that link.)

Hmm, is there still a hotdog vs hamburger issue? Katerina is right, yes, approx 6" wide by 9" high after folding? (Like The Plagiarist pages are folded.)

Yip - landscape to portrait :-) X

Ready, set, go!

Aha! "Landscape" to "Portrait" ,yep, that  I get !

Lisa...it's like centimeters to inches, A4 to "legal",  :-)

Sent to De Villo Sloan and Cheryl Penn

Lorraine - that looks great - thank you - I am looking forward :-) X

From Rosa Gravino - her beautiful contribution to The Plagiarist - some vispo inspiration for you all this Monday:-) XX

Looking WONDERFUL Janine! Nicolas - too much color :-)))!

Making boekies during the holidays...

Many Boekies to all at this group! Peace...let the pages "fly" in 2012!

Excellent Katerina - new entrants for The Alexandria Library (Boekie Collection)??  Hows the vispo going? :-) X

Cheryl - I just mailed all my pages to you, hopefully they don't get buried in the sludge of holidaze mailings!
