British artist, Emily Henderson, is on a quest to explore British culture through mail art and perceptions of British food.
I am looking for mail artists with limited or no knowledge of British food. I will mail you an authentic British recipe. Everyone will receive a different recipe based on the information they provide through the survey below. You must then gather the ingredients, make the food according to the recipe, record a video of your experience of making and/or eating the food and sharing it with someone you care about. Then email the video back to me or if it's too big put it on yousendit.com for me to download and the videos will be edited to be displayed in an art gallery in 2013.
All participants will be listed in the brochure for the gallery exhibition.
Documentation of any gallery exhibitions will be sent to all participating artists.
If any of the videos are edited and used to create other videos, gifs or artwork you will be credited and receive
special documentation of the use of your video.
If you would like to be a part of this project please fill out the survey below and email it to 1986.emily@gmail.com.
You should expect to receive a recipe in 4-6 weeks.
Deadline to sign up to receive a recipe: July 1st 2012
Deadline to mail your experiences to me: November 1st 2012

Second Life Project
Hi
I have been part of the mail art scene since 1999 and now I have a mail art exhibit in a virtual world called Second life.
I would love it if you could share this information with your community. I have one mail art call active already and will have new ones coming soon, so participating in this exhibit is easy for all. For your community, you can add my email address as a way of sending works, but generally speaking I am asking people to make a free avatar so they can experience the exhibit inworld.
(Show my email so that spambots cant find it, alana . pyara (a) gmail . com, thanks).
This is the exhibit blog:

Here are the mail art calls:

Please feel free to comment on any of the content and let me know if you are interested in finding out more.

PICA
Photocopy/mail art project to be exhibited as a project at Perth Institute for Contemporary Arts www.pica.org.au.
This is a project that I had in proposal form a few years ago (kinda this one http://www.perditaphillips.com/projects_blog/?p=1372). It's now been revamped as I am negotiating to include it in a show at PICA in September. The theme of the show is 'yonder' -- what's over there and is about building connections between artists across the southern hemisphere.
Participation involves simply photocopying a photocopy someone emails to you and posting two copies (one westward around the Southern Hemisphere, one back to Perdy). You can alter the envelope in any way you want -- it will be exhibited in the show as well. The series of photocopies will be turned into a short animation.
Especially interested in a wider distribution: from people from South Africa/Angola/Botswana/Burundi/Comoros/Lesotho/Madagascar/Malawi/Mauritius/Mozambique/Namibia/Rwanda/Seychelles/South Africa/Swaziland/Tanzania/Zambia/Zimbabwe/East Timor/Australia/Fiji/Nauru/New Zealand/Papua New Guinea/Samoa/Solomon Islands/Tonga/Tuvalu/Vanuatu/Argentina/Bolivia/Chile/Paraguay/Peru/Uruguay or southern parts of Indonesia/Brazil/Ecuador.
Participants will get a dvd with the final animation and a copy of the exhibition catalogue.
Contact me by 31 May to be included.
I will post more details soon.
