Mail-Artist since:
1986
My Website (without http://):

Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
Was involved in the cassette / music side of mailart in the 1980s /90s. The whole idea of a network of artists connected by the postal system appealed to me and was an antidote to the stranglehold the 'Art / Music' establishment had over my creativity.

I have always considered mailart to be one of the major unsung heroes of Art History and every effort should be made to raise its profile.

Here are a few network related things I have done this millennium. http://www.thiswindow.org/Mail_Art/?cat=3
