Need everyones help...

Okay- so like I said earlier Ran is in this installation class. So we thought of another cool little installation to do. (he has to do like 4 this quarter)

So we need everybody to send us a postcard- if you live close to me you can just give it to me. (it can be a bought or homemade postcard)

Then on your post card you need to write something...anything. Some examples: part of your fav. quote, a line from your fav. song, a little blurb from a book, a line of diretions from your shampoo bottle...anything at all.

Send the post card to me. (email me or leave a comment if you need my address)

We are going to set up mailboxes in the gallery and have all the post cards in it...then people can go take a post card then write whatever is on the postcard in a little journal we will have and it turns into a poem. The technique of randomly picking out words is called the Exsquisitete(sp) corpse and has been done for a while. We thought it would be cool to have people from all over help in the writing of the poems.

So, I know you all can do it AND if you really want to help you could have yours kids, friends, signicant others, etc. all write a post card too.

here is a little sample:
I just randomly write little things on pieces of paper, folded them up, and then drew them out. Each line of the poem was something I wrote down.

We all the power to make a new tomarrow;
we shall not be liable for any lost data.
Lather, rinse, repeat.
the truth and the questions
Oh, the places you'll go.

So they can end up being kind of wierd, but cool.
