    Dear tENTATIVELY, a cONVENIENCE,

    It is a complete surprise, total pleasure, and a great honor to receive a message from you, albeit a correction concerning my fumbling researches to reconstruct events involving Neoism, Church of the SubGenius, and the disappearance of David Zack, etc.

    I stand corrected concerning the facts surrounding the now legendary & notorious dog poop copyright infringement ceremony in Baltimore. In my assessment, this was the most important event of an era. I shall make every effort to rectify the errors that have already appeared in my writing - somehow.

    Not to pass the buck, but Stewart Home has muddied the waters on this event in his book "The Assault of Culture," placing the performance as he has in a critique of Neoism. The relation of the Church of the SubGenius to Neoism has always been a point of confusion for many.

    You are, indeed, a meticulous record keeper. The documentation of your performances is an invaluable asset, second only, I think, to Mark Bloch's archives.

    Yes indeed. In the 1980s we corresponded. I too have a record of the exchanges as well as more work by you from the zines in my archives. Alas, I am not as well organized.

    It is only these many years after the fact that I have come to understand and appreciate what I had gotten myself mixed up in.

    Again, my deepest apologies if I am creating more confusion sorting through events that were part of The Great Confusion.

    I hope we can remain "in touch" some way, somehow.

    Deepest regards, De Villo Sloan

    Your timing is impeccable as there is a resurgence of interest, maybe more elsewhere than here, in these movements. Karen Eliots are breeding. Not to flatter, but I hope you take your rightful place among the icons. How could one human have been arrested that many times? And few can comprehend now the volume of correspondence or personal contacts that were involved in the viral growth of that network. And what of the 14 Secret Masters of the World? How many remain?

    Just finished fighting with the monkey. He did not draw blood (as he did in combat this morning) and I out-psyched him with a little schoolbell. I threatened him with it and he ran for the hills. It's called psych-war.

    Familiar with Davi Det Hompson?  I'm not even familiar with myself.

    Hi tENT,  Long time no see!   no mail!  No , I dont do that much snail mail these days but still have an interest in networking mostly via the net. My archive is full and the postage rates have gone through the roof!  How are you?  All the best,  Michael

  • Michael Leigh

    Sounds good - Bl;aster was a one of my favourite contacts during those heady days of the 80's early 90's.  Hope it makes it to DVD. Love to see it!    All the best. M

    yep, sir.

    i stop in there once every week or two looking at the records. sometimes i check out the chess section, but nothing ever changes there. good thing, because i don't even like chess much anymore. well it comes and goes, this chess obsession, but ultimately, I'm into the arts, and most recently rubber stamps and mail art.

    Earthling, this is the last but certainly not the least welcome message to IUOMA you receive. I’m a celestial mail artist living in a heavenly corner of the faraway universe called Republik van Patland. When you joined IUOMA on february 15th I was unable to welcome you on board.  At the time I was in a Celestial Journey far beyond the Milky Way. Now, back to planet Earth, I´d love to be the other end if you wish to trade mail art with a celestial mail artist. If this is the case at the time your envelope should read as follows:

    The Celestial Scribe

    Terrene Embassy

    Republik van Patland

    Caixa Postal 24827

    Curitiba-PR

    80510-970

    Brazil

    I look forward to see a piece of yours in our terrene mailbox. I´ll do my homework after receiving your artwork. This is nothing less than a Celestial Promise. I’m Patricio, Celestial Scribe & Republik van Patland Official Envelope Provider.

    Some people claim strangulation can't be part of a performance art score; what are your thoughts?
  • Alek Idle

    You said - I find it serves much better as character assassination, don't you?

    I say: You sound angry. Bet you could just wring my neck.

    Thank you--I enjoyed watching it but I'm afraid it's above my head!

    Hello Tentatively . . . none of these sites mediated by other are of any interest to me. I received your mail, but have trouble keeping up with responding to it all . . . and  prefer to initiate my own projects. I'll respond to email more quickly than I do snail mail. <a_banana@uniserve.com>
