May! Holy shit~%#* Okay, so you know, I have not forgotten about this project and will put it back on the docket . . . I managed to tear my studio apart today so currently have no room to work [except here at the digital cortex workstation]. Am trying to deconstruct the space and reorg it so I have a better space to work in. In the mean time small projects at the dining room table . . .
Sorry for the ambiguous message. Its meaning hinged on you remembering that I was the recipient of one of the original three collaborative books. I was just amazed that so much time had gone by when I saw that you had sent them out last May [5 May '14]. Obviously, I have not sent it back to you [so no, do not send me another], it is however a work in progress . . . [perhaps now my original email may make sense?]
Hey Jon, tonight I found out that I can learn more about Mail Art by attending a lecture [seminar?] at Reich Auditorium with Jon Foster. I was very excited to read this news until I saw the date, 30 Sept.. I could get into my time machine and go back to the 30th, but then I'd still be in Anaheim and I don't remember much happening in Anaheim on the 30th, so that'd just be boring. Well, I hope the event went well. I enjoyed some of the students' comments and really like the drawing of the laying figure with a book on his stomach — I really like the colors. The shaving diagram is very informative. If I ever decide to shave, I'll make reference to it; in the meantime, I'll just let the beard grow, it saves so much time. Hallo and ciao, thank you for all the informative and entertaining inclusions in today's mail.
50 starter kits? Man, you are one dedicated MA [not to be confused with a dedicated MF :o]. Seriously, though, fantastic job . . . Jon the MA Evangelist . . . Long Live Mail Art . . .
Would have loved to see a video of the event, but your account is well enough to satisfy. Ciao.
The postcard you sent arrived safely. I love it. The vintage swimsuit ladies couldn't be cooler. You definitely picked the right recipient. I'm so happy to have it. :) Thanks
Hi Jon, I made sure there are a lot of pages or little flaps with space to add things. I thought you would add stuff - was that a misconception? All the best XX
Enjoy Jon! Just got back from some shows that Henry Kaiser curated at the Stone in NYC. Do you know who he is? Aaaanyway, It was a really great show... I didn't realize so much of his work was 3 dimensional - really cool! There's another wee goodie from the show coming to you also, but I thought putting it in the envelope might dent the cat., so I posted it under separate cover... Be well and creative my friend! Hope he inspires...
Ah, great Jon! Where it in good health my friend! %_^ (I was hoping you dug Crimson... The bag is an artifact of the 5 shows I saw last Summer/Fall...)
Glad to hear it arrived. The book was fun to do. I sent something to France last month and it's not been seen since. By the way, did the Tucker package get to you? That project is so neat.
Thanks Jon - that's great. I'm not very on top of checking what's arrived where and happy just to send stuff, but the recent 'lost-in-the-post' incident has got me spooked. I'm not on facebook, but now thinking I might join. Can I say again - that Tucker project - love it!
Thanks Jon, I really appreciate it... I guess it probably makes sense including others on a book collab for shorter distances and less expense. In the UK we're fortunate to have the same price whether we send to the east or west coast of the States.
14.10.15 Dare Jon Foster, I think you would be absolutely amazed at just how " out of touch"(i.e. "electronically naive- I am a charter member of The Luddite Society) or just plain "naive" ... having trouble with my E-mail & really have no computer skills to begin with. ...did receive partial phone text from you but no real experience there either [by the way,should you for some reason wish to actually call me--- the house phone here is (618) 549-1151...always up late & usually always here ])....Alas to the point, but still no real information----off hand, I can't seem to recall the 1979 Winston-Salem Mail Art exhibit to which you refer.. Was it at Wake Forest U.or SECCA???... maybe the Sawtooth Art Center downtown??? & what is the source for your box of stuff???? Always pleased to hear from you & thanx for your recent artful postcards. Richard Canard
Concerned that you don't have it yet. Sent first class, with tracking - thought it would have been there by Thursday or Friday. Will check the status later today.
Hey Jon! Thank you so much for the rad "add and pass" assortment I received in the mail yesterday. Working on yours this weekend! All the best... David

Hi Jon - your book arrived last week and I've begun working on it! I will send you a note when I put it back in the mail!
