Thanks Guido, where exactly did you post it.I can not find it, sorry I am a bit amateur with all here, blogs and all perhaps no passion for computer browsing, but waiting for your lovely art here.....let you know dear Guido, enjoy your weekend. Kyra
Hi Guido - how wonderful! Thank you. For the explanation I will have to explore this further. It's almost like working with negative space. I lov e dyeing paper and playing with the patterns that form. Enjoy the week!
Bonjour Guido! Many thanks for the latest colourdul envelope that I received today; No, i won't be trying this exercise at home...I'll attemp^t it at the local hospital, clinic or whatever. Am I supposed to open the enevelope, Are there hidden goodies inside it? I'll be mailing you something back later in the week.
Bonosir Guido! Sorry to hear about your hospitalisation, and hope that things go well for you on the 11th. Horror stories in hospital? That's weird, really weird. I mainly do sudokus when I'm hospitalised, and can check how well I'm doing by how goodly or badly I do at he wretched puzzles. And now...to open the envelope.
I love the randomness-it's more intuitive to let the art come to you. I love dyeing paper AND fabric because the patterns emerge on their own. I'll be experimenting more with this as I hadn't thought of starting with wet paper. Would love to see a demo of this. I have a rather limited ink selection which is why I love tea/coffee dyeing. It can be hit or miss with me. Sometimes it comes out unexpectedly great and other times the color combos just don't work and it's back to the drawing board. Enjoy your day:)
Happy viewing, Guido! Alas, I can't comment on your choice of films/movies as i haven't seen one for over 20 years. the last one i saw was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I read and write books and do other things but watch big or small screens. Regards, Val
Wanted to let you know how thrilled I was to receive your wonderful painted envelope. I wanted to thank you with a piece of mail, but am working nonstop for the next couple of weeks on work orders -- I design and produce handmade greeting cards. But, I will not forget to follow up at some point and thank you very much.
Hi Guido! The piece I mailed you last friday has come back...without your address on it! I'll repost it tomorrow. Hope you are feeling well. Regards, Val
Guido, I just received your piece in the mail yesterday, its fabulous! You sent quite the treasure trove! Things have changed yet stayed the same in Minnesota since you visited. I can honestly say that I love Minnesota (born and raised) hope you can make it back sometime. I am contributing a piece to "The Book of Ann" , what a great project. Will you post or publish some of the works you receive? Thank you so much for the art and watch the post for many returns!
Guido, Thank you for the wonderful art! I will send something very soon.

oh, i use the term lightly and in fun, don't worry.
i am still playing around in my mind what to send for my muse representation.
i might send the pages from my profile pic. i am a bit narcissistic after all. ;-)
Guido, I went to your blog...great work! will appreciate if you can let your friends also know about the SECREt eXCHANGE project https://www.facebook.com/#!/event.php?eid=118586061553841 best to you, and thanks
it's big and sloppy which is just how i like to do art too!
and i absolutely love it!
i don't know much about chernobyl, but i did include some pictures of the kids in one of my POSTmodernism plates, one of my more favorite ones with a piece of poetry saying "the content of history will be poetry"
Guido - your friend Bernd Reichert sent me the most fantastic mail art :-) - is he a member here? I will OF COURSE reply - this week - wow - he sent an excellent. If he is not, please relay my thanks, but I will have a hunt for him now.
Thank you Guido :-) -happy Saturday to you. I am in the process of making him a goodie :-) - and I will post you a new work on Monday - hope you like it! Do you do alot of asemics??
Greetings from Greece, Guido, and many thanks for the mail art you sent. I hope you got the art for the Book of Ann? I shall make a blog for the mail art. All the best, Katerina
Great sleepy cat! Yes I have many, many cats..under my balcony!
Guido - what you say about US mail is absolutely true. Some things arrive with lightening speed while others take forever - and no pattern I can see. Oh, and glad you joined the Asemic Writing Group - your work is perfect!

with the universe constantly expanding, i don't think we need to worry about that ;-D

i tried to start a collaborative poem on wikipedia HERE,
but nobody besides my wife and i seemed to be interested.
Hiiiiiiii Guido! I'm happy! Your shipment arrived on 02 May 2011 at my house. Your art is very beautiful. Thanks you, my friend! A fraternal hug (big, big) for you, dear Guido!!! :D
Do you Dream in Ochre arrived :-) - FAB!!! Now to prepare a suitable reply - THANK YOU Guido - a visual delight :-) - AND it mostly arrived in tact - thats amazing. Do YOU dream in ochre?
May 9, 2011
all and any zombies are highly appreciated!
not sure what the dadaist poetry thing is,
i'll have to look it up.
not sure why wikipedia would be a bad place?
wikis are extremely editable on a mass scale,
it would seem to me to be a perfect place for
a collaborative poem!
that and it's all under creative licence to begin with!
what more could you want???
besides, i think wikipedia is a great example of a collaborative
platform, i expect we'll see other similar types of sites for
collaborative creative projects down the road, not just encyclopoedic!
