Word from another era

The first rule of mail art is that you need to keep track of everything.  I have this amazing ledger but it hasn't been cracked open in… I pile up the work I recieve by my computer and pile up the work I blog in another pile and eventually I move it upstairs to my filing box and eventually I file it all by mail artist in a series of boxes. It shouldn't be this way but I am just always chasing my tail. 

The trouble is when I get something from a long time ago and can't remember the detail of it… (this was part of a project that I began where I scanned some other mail artists and people added to them and sent them back to me for me to make bookies with them. This began with Herman Kamphuis' wonderful drawing and collage.) I can't remember what I was thinking. Do I know who added to this? It looks like Pone to me but I could be absolutely wrong.  Let me know if you know.  Perhaps I will take up the thread of Dkult Doodle Therapy again. For the moment I will just try and catch up on my blogging!

BBQ Riblet #938 from PONE (Michael Orr)

 This is my first mail art from Pone.  I counted down mailart with him on Mailart 365, dazzled often by his circuitry of marks.  On the back (I really should have scanned it…) he has a PONE stamp, a title, some documentation and he says, 'Dunno that I've ever sent you mail.'

Delighted to finally have one of my own Orr originals. I received an eyedrum already, so will pass it onto Sam Hollis who I think would REALLY appreciate it!
