MAILART PROJECT

Welcome!

Hey David - wow - Beatniks from Space, Gerry Reith (Neutron Gun), Mike Miskowski's MaLLife, Jake Berry and Outre - those are certainly ground zero for me. Great times. I'll go back in the archives and see if I can figure out who you are, as it's not ringing a bell at the moment.

Check out Borderline Grafix (TX) here at IUOMA. He is linked to some of those zines and some Neoist activities. John M. Bennett, Ficus and others are also here - probably you found them.

Keep in touch, DVS

WOW! Just checked out the images you've posted! YOW!

I got started with W.C. ["DaDa Bill"] Paulaskas of Queens, NY in ~1991 slamming with the Lost in Wallpaper Poets on a BBS.

It was a Citadel BBS, before internet, dialup, one-customer-at-a-time. The metaphore was a castle of mansion of rooms in which we 'poets' wd leave messages, often snarky, for each other and where I felt the need to appear powerful so named myself Ficus strangulensis.

Paulauskas issued cassettes, at least one of which I [think I still] have, "How to Love the Rotting Cadaver #9" which was a recitation of computer generated text as it rolled off a screen backed by Tuvan throat singing.

Paulauskas had pieces performed by DaDa NY, wrote poetry I enjoyed and published in TRANSMOG my first publishing adventure which lasted a few years ~91-96.

About this time, I started doing cutups separating texts into ~ 4" lines and repurposing. My 'ouvre' resides now in the OSU Library Avant Writing collection c/o John M. Bennett.

I'll look for the 'rotting cadaver' tape, and if you can play cassettes, will send you one. If not, I can transfer it to mp3 but with my legendary laziness, that may not happen near-instantaneously.

Y'r [new] ol' Bud,   Fike

Hello dear friend, I ask friendship? I can no longer ... I embrace you, Bruno

Grazie!  un fraterno abbraccio!  W LA MAIL ART E LA PACE FRA I POPOLI!   W IUOMA !!!!   Bruno

il mio inglese è molto peggio! non so nulla!  uso il traduttore on line...

Thank you! nice danish by the way :)

Good idea, because the Scandinavian languages are similar. I understand both Norwegian and Swedish :)

Hi David, thank you for your friendship, I look forward to exchanging art with you :) See you in the mail!!

You're welcome David!  That is the first postcard collage I have sent without putting it in an envelope.  The post office did mark it up a bit, but I think it survived well enough.  And why is it that junk mail arrives pristine, but mail art looks like it was dragged through the street?

Thanks for the friend add, David, and welcome to IUOMA!

Thanks for the info!  As long as you liked it, that's all that matters. 

I'm glad you enjoyed my ma.  I really enjoyed sending it.  See you in the mail.
