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!

Carina's missing mail artists and body parts

What a great project but what a lame mail artist I am!  Imagine making Carina wait for months!  I promise it has nothing to do with arrogance and I have to admit that when I finally ear marked the time it was lots of fun to respond to Carina's quirky call!  I actually finished it weeks ago and even put a stamp on it but hoped to add more to the envelope.  In the end I decided to mail it from the airport and then forgot so I had the dilemna of whether to put US postage on top of the UK postage  or to wait…and in the end I saved I and mailed it earlier in the week.  Hopefully Carina received it, or if not, don't scroll down until you do, Carina!
