Digital Future and Wordwideweb stamps

Testing the newly made stamps 'Digital Future" and "Worldwideweb" on two envelopes that will go out by traditional mail. Will people get the meaning? A lot of old time mail-artists recently enbraced the Internet too (I speak of the last decade) and start to declare that all their mail-art will be digital.

For me, the art is still a process with artifacts. I only use Internet as an aspect in it, but the concept also has to deal with the other 'multimedia' ingredients. The envelope that carries the newly designed rubberstamps, the subberstamps themselves, prints of my Facebook pages to document all of the process, etc....

So, the future is not digital at all, like we human beings aren't digital. We like the artifacts.
