The International Union of Mail-Artists is where the IUOMA stands for, but actually it is one of the aspects of the Mail-Art that Ruud Janssen has produced in the last 38 years. A lot has been written by him in this period and in his BLOG he writes about the most recent views and thoughts. For Snail-Mail write to: iuoma@outlook.com

Lancilotto Bellini from Italy sent me a few digital images as well. Seems I made this enveloppe back in 1997. Yes, I worked a lot with ink in those years. Thanks Lancilotto!
Hi ruud, Nice envelope. i was rooting througha box yesterday to find likely scanning material for my new blog ( now see what you started!) and i found a nice envelope of yours from 1995 which i will digitise later and send you. Also a Robin Crozier Memory/Memo that you did around the same time. I will look through some more boxes today so you never know what might turn up. Mice probabaly!
Another member of the audience who has a good pile of Crozier Memories. He used to document the Memories... hand written and drawn, I'll bet (an educated guess... I never saw them, but that's the way he liked to work). He'd then send a book of them to the Getty Museum (they may have originally gone to the Jean Brown Archives)and they compensated him for this. At some point in the late 90's the Getty people changed focus or something and either stopped the money or stopped accepting the work. He let the project go at that point.

Aha, I have about 300+ of Robin's memo/Memorandom sheets. Maybe we should digitize those? But I wonder, who it the audience..... Just the two of us?
