Hi! Yep the 45 rpm/7" record was sent in a white paper sleeve. A French IUOMA guy (JF Chappel) and myself are testing the patience of la Poste (the French post office) by seeing what we can mail. So far it's accepted -- wooden biscuit lids and cheese box lids; undersized and oversized envelopes; badly and incorrectly addressed cards and envelopes; addresses written in cyrillic letters; very out-of-date postage stamps; CD cases, etc.
The guy who really pushes this to extremes is Dean Marks -- check out his IUOMA page.
I've just finished an 'Envelope A Day' for a year project -- see www.val-herman-art.eu Envelope Art, then Envelope a Day -- in which I experimented with Envelopes in the Dutch, British and French post systems: they all got delivered.
You've got a gifted niece. Ask her if she'd like to exchange mail Art with me? If so, send me her name and address.
And if you'd like to as well, then mail mesomething and i PROMISE to send you something back.
Walter - you'll see :-) - living at the bottom of the world has its FAB pluses - BUT mail is SO SLOW .... - Its like being back in the 16th Century :-) - something is wending its very slow way to you :-) X
I arrive in Venice on Thursday, I will be staying (and exhibiting) at the Emily Harvey Foundation, my address will be 1823 San Polo and the telephone is 041-099-1513.
I will also be performing and exhibiting at the gallery of Tiziana in Venice Mestre.
Walter: If you wish to go beyond ocean and borders with the recycling impulse, Brazil could be a proper arena. If you feel ok with the proposal, send your non retentive mail art to:
The Celestial Scribe
Av. Paraná, 1489 - Apto. 1004
Curitiba-PR
82510-000
Brazil
On receiving your piece I will action my own impulse and you will be receiving a brazilian no retentive mail art. That´s a celestial promise. I´m Patricio, the Celestial Scribe

Hi Walter,
I have made it to Venice!
BUT...
I forgot to bring my diary so I am having to find out about dates, AND I'm having many difficulties with my emails.
The exhibition in the EHF gallery is from 19th to 23 October, address San Polo 387.
I am still trying to get (again) the details for the other stuff in Mestre, I'll send it on when I have it.
I arrive in Venice on Thursday, I will be staying (and exhibiting) at the Emily Harvey Foundation, my address will be 1823 San Polo and the telephone is 041-099-1513.

vedo che la mail art ti ha un po' preso, bene!
spero avrai letto il messaggio circa l'antologia delle Forbici di Manitù
a presto, V.
