    The reason I asked about changing the bug theme was because I thought you had self-portrait as a theme before... Hope that makes sense! I like your feb. bug... perhaps someone will kiss me like that again! Ha. Is your Ft. Lauderdale friend someone who you see in NY? I like the wire sculpture... it's nice to be creatively minded. Have a great day!
    Oh... can I interview you for my zine? I could email a set of "questions" ... nothing too personal and mostly just fun. Let me know if you want to do it... I could also include a piece of your art! I currently sell the zine on etsy and at The Arts Center in downtown St. Pete. And I give away the rest!
    A fun thing I've been doing... http://www.arthousecoop.com/users/weeklyhoot

    "Glad to see that I'm not the only one who has reservations about David Zack´s 'disappearance/ death'. I have been reading accounts of it from 1994 on that are each different. The Mexican prison seems a constant as does some sort of ¨bad paper¨. His ¨crime¨ has been described variously as welfare fraud ,living off his dead parents' retirement checks, claiming dependent children that didn't exist, and failure to pay spawn support for some who did. Sounds like simple fraud or forgery or somthing like that. Would Mexican courts have any jurisdiction or interest in American Social Security, Welfare, or Aid to Dependent Children? So why all these different and incredibly seedy stories?

    "One report claims that after his release he hobbled across the border into a Texas nursing home to die . (What nursing home? Any death records?) Another states that one of his legs had been amputated in a Mexican dungeon. 'Here' he died in ´85 but 'there' in ´95 ...huh?...

    "In 1968 when I was a student of Dave´s at S F A I and his neighbor on Stiner Street we sat in the front room at Rainbow House and he told me about the curious disappearances of Arthur Cravan, Ambrose Bierse and B. Travan. THEY had all disappeared in Mexico without a trace. Stories still circulate about them. Seems a very literary way to go, all romantic and mysterious. There is also a reference to the Cravan, Bierse, Travn disappearances on that incredibly dense, link heavy and anti-semantic ¨9 by 9 squares¨ URL that shows up if one runs Zack´s name into Google . What about his life extention center and this Marty Cantsin fellowS? curiouser and curiouser.

    "Certainly no one consistent version of his alleged disreputable demise. He may well be beastlydead. Still, Dave was a prankster and I wouldn't be at all surprised if he pops up again some time. If not perhaps tabloid rumors may surface : AGE´D PROFESSOR THOUGHT TO BE DEAD FOR 20 YEARS FATHERS BRITNEY´S LOVE CHILD !!! To me that doesn't sound any more bizarre than the rest." (John Dean, May 2002)

    OOOOOHHHHhhhhhh I'm in the second batch! Can't wait! Hello Mr. Berube... I'm getting ready to assemble Zine #6... if your questions are done... if not maybe for #7. Anywho--hope all is well in NYC. And I love the hand coloring of the Feb. batch 2 example.

    CHROMATOPHORE the art show will be opening August 27th @ Studio 620. www.studio620.org has put up some great information about the show and designed their own invite! Please check it out. Opening is 6:30-9 and will include over 300 pieces of mail art from 20 different countries. There will be interactive mail art tables featuring mail art calls, add and pass. There will be a raffle of donations from local businesses and artists including Hugo Porcaro, TestTower, Ginny Lloyd and more! There will be food, drinks and live music from local favorite--Rebecca Zapen. Check her out at www.zapen.com . And last but not least a showing of artifacts from the first open air post office in St. Petersburg, FL. So as you can see from the line up--it's going to be a great night! Admission is free and none of the art is for sale.


    So what do you think? I'm currently compliling a program and after the show I hope to make a zine of the event. Will probably sell it on etsy to defray the cost. Join me for a night of mail art fun!!!!
