10 years of Boxes and Envelopes - Returns
Just thought I would show you the current returns for the 10 years of boxes and envelopes project. So When I receive a submission I will send out a certificate of participation, post card and some stickers. So to those lovelies who have already participated expect an envelope from me as your returns have been put in the post and are on their way. I am also keeping a register of everyone who has participated so that when the time comes to exhibit the work etc, I can let you all know and pass on documentation.

Has the Internet Killed the Postman?
The following works were received in response to a mail-art project I called in 2006. Has the Internet Killed the Postman, asked three questions;
When is mail art and when is it just mail?
Has the Internet killed the postman?
Contributor freedom: a license to excel or suck?
20 artists from 10 countries sent works either by post or e-mail, which in itself dismissed the notion that mail art has died.
Due to an unforeseen absence from the world as I knew it, the planned exhibition and documentation of this project never occurred in 2006. The exhibition, and documentation has now (very belatedly) been completed and catalogs sent to all participants.
I would like to thank all participants for their thoughts and creativity.
See you around the Eternal Network
