New Super Space . . . Thank you so very much for the card. It's absolutely fabulous. I especially like the comic book message, '. . . the best part about communicating is sharing!' So true sir, so true.
Thank you, I am so happy to have received one of your wonderful card ! And with it, I will not forget :"never stop breathing !" See you soon on the mail.
Jon--thank you so much for your latest card--I like the focus on communication. Just to let you know that I intend to bind the postcards that you send me as a special display for the IUOMA exhibition in October. So if you send me 2 more over the next few months, it will make a wonderful compilation of your unique work.
Your card added to my IUOMA photo stream and will be blogged shortly at
Jon, Björkö is an island located about 40 km (25 miles) from Petsmo, Björkö has a very special archipelago and is inscribed on the UNESCO Natural World Heritage list ... took the photo from a lookout tower. Petsmo is near the sea but has not the same rugged terrain... Thanks for your interest Jon, and welcome to Scandinavia :)))
Thank you, Jon. I got your zine invitation and a couple of days later your great tape collage! Thank you so much! A zine contribution is in the making.
Hi Jon, I found three collages by Genesis P Orridge in a German mail-art zine from the late '70s. I think there's no question Genesis was in the mail-art network, at least at a certain point in time. I'll try to get them scanned and posted. They are... They are pretty much what you'd expect.
Hi Jon I picked up your 2 postcards today (I've been on a 2 week hiatus). You can consider your promise to send me some mail art fulfilled--many many thanks!!! I'll be 'binding' what you sent and will forward a photo of the results.
Did I miss your call for contributions? I had August in my head, but I fear I may be too late. For shame! Apologies. In any case, sign me up to receive your two zines. Bones arriving ASAP.
Jon, received the zine and nostrils..read the zine, thank you for including me. I have not listened to the cd yet....thank you for all your effort and time you put into these project..be seeing you in the mail....
Got my super envelope from you over weekend. Zine looks great. Even had a chance to listen to more than a few tracks on the Nostrils disc. You are a man of many talents.
And now , some compliments for you...The Nostrils has been on rotation in my car for a week now and I know the words AND sing along to many songs, with the window down, even though it's freezing. I sing and laugh! People stare.
Yep, it's true. But now for some not so positive feedback...I took my car to the auto-electrical guy to check out...um, electrical stuff, and when I picked up the car he'd changed the Nostrils cd to radio!!! But I wouldn't worry too much, no point putting pearls before swine, that pleb.
Artists are invited to submit work exploring the intersection between mail art and artists’ books, in whatever way, shape, or form that may take. Mail art, artistamps, artists’ books, and other artworks that can be mailed and relate to the theme of mail/art/books are encouraged.
I'd like to send our collaborative mail art book --I think it meets the criteria. I will ask Jennie if I can send it in a few days late, because of my display planned for 10/19/13.
Hey Jon--well, I made you a very nice (if i say so myself) Asian-inspired, double-sided postcard and today somewhere between leaving my house and arriving at the post office I lost it....It was all stamped and ready to go so I hope some kind person mails it. Let me know if you get it........
