Mail Art

I mailed friends two subtle shades of color swatches attached to cards and asked for their input. Here's what I got back:




2006 Holiday Card Project

Last holiday season i decided to try to create an online holiday card people can watch and listen to.

I asked people via email to leave voice mail messages on my home phone. Since the messages come to my email as a wav attachment, I was easily able to use them in my music composition program.

I asked people to think about what they really wanted for the new year and to call in and leave their answer on my voicemail.

I then sliced up their words and made a message out of it all--maybe a meta-message.

This is the result.

"In spring, as the ice pack recedes, narwhals push into cracks and holes as they migrate. Their compact size (13 to 16 feet [four to five meters] long) and lack of dorsal fins aid travel beneath the ice. The annual migration also brings them within range of human hunters."
