  • Sandra Lefever

    Hi Diane! I just received and post your most recent mail to my Wordpress blog. Thank you for the ticket to every event I'll ever want to attend!

    Best, Sandra

  • Amy Irwen

    Hi Diane, received your survival, faith and courage PC..where on earth did you get the clove gum or wrapper??? Have not seen that in forever! :)
    Love the "awdodd" LOL! *¿*

    Will blog soon...thank you!
  • Claire (aka Cleo)

    I received the most wondrous Trashpo today - Thank you so much Diane!Your work is so exciting! [I scanned it and put pics in my "Received" album]

    Now, I have all these tech questions for you:

    A: what glue do you use?

    B: it seems like there's this matte coating on some things - is that correct? If so, what is it [I love this finish!]

    C: What is the envelope made of? When I first looked, I thought maybe it was printed vellum, then I saw the inside & it seemed a print on plain white paper. There seems to be a matte-plasticy sheen to it. Very cool!

    Going on my bulletin board of favorites... The reply may take a bit as I've quite a back-log, but it's coming... Once again, Thanks so much for the beauty...

    Thanks, Diane. My birthday was in April. You're only a little late. I'm still celebrating.
  • Arac

    Thanks, Diane, for the card. It's very mysterious. I love that.
  • Susan McAllister

    Hey Diane, my birthday was April 21st.
  • Susan McAllister

    Nope, I didn't think you had dementia. I just figured you were overwhelmed with all the work of running DKult.
  • Arac

    I've been DKulted!!!  No doubts, where do I sign? :)  Also, is there a chance of rejection if I didn't believe ALL the rights to be right...would if help if I didn't believe the wrongs were right either?!>?

  • Not Hi Ng

    Diane, I'm glad it made it to you and that it works. The message I left on it is of no importance, the main thing is that there is a continued interaction from one mail artist to another. I have a couple more I'm working on to send out, maybe another one will make it's way around to you again.

  • cheryl penn

    Safely Bound and valued at $4.97 has arrived - in our currency thats a FORTUNE!!! Valuable - like the piece you sent :-)!! Just remembered you asked me to work on something - scrambled egg brain at the moment - will get on it XX

  • Claire (aka Cleo)

    hey Diane, I received my second helping of DK tRashPo goodies today - weeee!!! Thank you so much! Will be posting images in the near future [working on TP button. Steph's is very cool!] Thanks again!

  • Nadine Wendell-Mojica

    Excellent choices. Your kids will not be scarred. You get mother of the year award. I lost mine the year I forgot to pick up my son from camp and he was the last kid there in the pouring rain and Ms Alicia was called by camp director  to pick him up.

  • stripygoose

    Hello DK - lovely surprise for me in the post today - thank you. love it. am guessing that card was once part of something bigger? can i still join trashpo if i have no trash only rubbish? :>)))

  • De Villo Sloan

    Diane, I mentioned that DKult has some similarities to the Church of the Subgenius.

    Do you know or know of MarK Bloch in NYC? Panmodern is a great site. He also did stuff on Neo, which has some ties to DKult. I thought the "open pop star" idea was tremendous: you invent an imaginary rock (though ma etc) and then different people can assume the identity. Anyway, if you have a chance Panmmodern isn't bad. Here's the Neo section:

  • De Villo Sloan

    The main Panmodern site is a better link:

  • De Villo Sloan

    Glad you took a look.

    Mark Bloch was a D-Koincidence - too much time in the Trashpo shared consciousness. I had come across a postcard he sent trying to keep ahead of filing stuff. Later

    Pickle alarm in Heidelberg!!! Supercool mail you've sent me, Diane, I love the animail theme and can't believe you did this! Woowwww! Happy here in Heidelberg today - thank you!

  • Ana Karina

    Hi diane. glad cereal art got there in one piece. I've started writing down who i've sent mailart to now, lol, though i did want to send to you, i just forgot i had just sent you one a few days before! it translates to the sardiners, if that's a word, which means i guess the sardine men or sardine fishing men, something like that :D

  • Sarah Churchill

    You are more than welcome Diane. My first ever trashbook! The ticket stub was from a school trip many years ago, and seemed like a little treasure I should pass on. I am very glad that you like it! :)

    Just now watched your trashpo selection + creation videos--fantastic. And fun for the whole family! I remember to check videos about once every 3.5 months so am late, late, late. But they're great ...
