Now that I have relieved myself of the pressure of documenting everything that I receive and send, I suddenly feel like posting. Imagine that? I received this amazingness in my mailbox yesterday. I totally dig it. Not only is it the name of Ani Di Franco’s record label but it is the perfect card for [...]

Hello. Yes, I know my last post was a bit rushed. I apologize. I have been feeling a sense of urgency to catch up with all the mail that I need to respond to, all the additional mail that I want to send, my love of collaging for the sake of collage, and other creative [...]

Hi Everyone, I am slowly returning to the world beyond books. I am still taking a class this summer and am starting a new job on Tuesday, but I will slowly make time for mail art again. Yippee! The following is one of my projects from the semester, “Collaging Discourse.” I’d love your thoughts on [...]

One of my favorite clicks is WAFA (We Are Fucking Awesome) Global Artist Collective. They redesigned their website and I realized that my side link to their postcards wasn’t working anymore. It should be working now. I am working on another collage zine for a class of mine, actually. A visual interpretation of Michel Foucault’s [...]

It was spring break this week and e and I took a few much needed days to get out of coldville and head to urban rainville. We really didn’t mind the rain much as long as we were bundled in our rain coats and put everything in our backpack inside plastic bags. Trees were beginning [...]

At the same time that I complain about the consumerist aspects of holidays, I love the fact that I am provided with a theme from which to spark my creativity. Valentine’s Day is no exception. Do I really need an excuse to cut out hearts? Perhaps. This first one is a fav. Kelli gets it [...]

It is nearing the third week of the semester and I am still seeking that ephemeral notion called balance. I think that I am taking too many classes. I’ve had some pretty thick reading this weekend including Jaspir Puar’s Terrrorist Assemblages along with some articles on arts-based research and I am still not done. This [...]

My mailbox has had mail in it almost every day this week. I will share my gifts in time. Today, I want to concentrate on two of them. Jennifer [...]

I am finally sharing some of the amazing postcards that I have received from that initial postcard exchange that I did with friends on Facebook a month ago. Today’s theme [...]
