stranger,
too many catagories,genre, groups, divisions,
are u a sender or receiver? the binary system works for me,
are u sure u want more dis-information.......
is that indiana?, i have family in indianapolis.
Aug 4, 2020
Keith S. Chambers
Hey Carl, perhaps you can explain the [mailart] binary system to me; I would assume it would entail one sender, one receiver and would have a rotating zero, one trajectory to alter vector paths alternating sender and receiver roles throughout the network, but I digress, perhaps, as I asked, you could give me some insight into the true binary system of traversing one's mailart through the eternal network.
Aug 4, 2020
carl baker
dear sir,
oh sure, there are binaries(1&2)(2&1) but mailart is an automatic system,
and is more telepathic actually, some ppl cannot read these messages, but i say send today, see what happens, i often send randomly, but rarely receive mail i don't need. we trust the eternal network>>>>>>>>
Aug 4, 2020
Keith S. Chambers
True, true... trust in the eternal network. Random mail-outs are good, anonymous random mail-outs even better [more fun?]... but it is important to continue feeding into your personal network within the eternal network. Even more important is to build that personal network to support and encourage an ever growing eternal network. Peace out and over, k.

We see art in everything. We want to build a place to encourage self expression. We want to see anything you’ve made even if you think it’s not worth seeing. No matter who you are, where you are, what you do , how good or bad you think you are, if you want your name on it or not. This is a place for your thoughts, doodles, scribbles, half written poems, words in no particular order, a bit of music you tried to make, a drawing from an art class you tried that time. Send us ANYTHING
Feel free to upload directly through the website or send via post to my address to be uploaded to the platform

MAIL ART PROJECT:
Hi all, I’m a Fine Art student looking for anybody interested in helping me with an assignment on Mail Art, we’ve been given the task of creating an online project so I’ve decided to exchange art with people around the world and exhibit it on an Instagram feed.
There is no briefing on what can be sent, if anything I would encourage people to send me things they enjoy making (as we all have our preferred ways of working). I will of course return the favour by sending something back. Please do let me know If you would be interested. I am relatively new to the concept of mail art so this is an exciting opportunity for me! (Anything late will still be added as well, I will also accept emailed work).
The deadline is the 20th of April.
Also thank you to those who have already said they will send me something, it is greatly appreciated :)

i'm a superhero
I've created so many half-finished projects that I am hesitant to post any but my fiancée can only draw horses so I started a call for horse art.
I like it because it's a simple call and not mentally taxing, and horses are huge in the local culture of Kyrgyzstan.
drawing of the horse by Aida, finished in Adobe by yours truly.
