thank you for the surprise in my tiny envelope, it is wonderful tactile and the Braille dots are so fun when combined with the “DO NOT TOUCH” at the top! The envelope arrived safely, with the “free matter” honored internationally from Portugal. Thanks again!

Obrigado Paulo Teles

Hi Paulo,

Yes, you are quite right--the incomplete art is an add and pass, as are the Dada Dollars. If you wish, you may add anything to them and pass them along to whomever you want to share them with. The Hilgart Receptive is for you, and is part of a log (current at the time) of every piece of mail art I received; I am no longer creating new editions of Hilgart Receptive. Feel free to keep it, or to treat it as an add, alter, pass piece--whatever you think is best. 

Hope you enjoy them!

Hello I send Conv Magazine La Persiana. Saludos. Sabela 

hello paulo,

yes. it is the value of social art activities to push creative works on another level. it is kind of swarm entelligence. i like your creative manipulation a lot. it is up to predrag to confirm if this was his motivation, to create this movement of the mission of dadaland to open creative doors for each of us. for sure it was my idea joining predrags group and to spread the easter eggs. Interestingly, your post is a clear indication of the power of Mail Art in these special times when communication between people is becoming increasingly difficult. Just as Mail Art was also an opportunity in its early days to exchange relevant, critical information between committed creative people, it also appears to be an adequate platform for the dissemination of the individual artistic message. Swarm intelligence then means that some of these messages are carried further than others. Your works have inspired me again and I thank you for that by carrying the associated messages. The actual added value is realized over time in the group, it goes far beyond the feelings of the emitter.

Obrigado Paulo Teles
