I follow the blog “Personal Message” which is an outlet for the collaborative work of Michael Dumontier & Neil Farber. A few weeks ago they wrote a post offering to send free postcards to anyone interested. So, I fired off some nerdy fan mail with my address. And, hallelujah, I got a postcard!
It says: “taking his seat on the rock of ineptitude.” perfect. perfect. Thank you Michael, thank you Neil!
I’ve been slow on the mail art lately, but I finally got around to working on some new collaborations. I like seeing the before and after shots of these. For the full collection of WAFA mail art, see here.

I have more postcards too, you’ll just have to wait-n-see.
The WAFA Travel journal arrived in my mailbox about a month ago. It was initiated by Sundry Sullen, sent on to Brandon Wilson, Jenkins, Anthony Zinonos, and finally me. Three continents and counting …. Currently it’s in a post bucket somewhere on the way to the Twin Cities for some time with Jesse Draxler. Oh, how I love the mail.
I started work on a new little collaborative book and mailed it off to the lovely and talented Miss Mary Virginia Carmack. Once she’s made her mark, I’ll post pictures of the finished product. A little background on this project: It’s my first collaboration with a girl, I think, ever. With that in mind, I decided to work with ideas of ‘the mysterious feminine’. Enjoy!
If you’re able to visit the Black Mountain College Museum sometime before June 12th, DO IT. Seeing Ray Johnson’s work in person is a rare privilege! See this post for all the details. The opening was perfect and I took lots of pictures:
