71) New Mail-Artists from the Web

The older generation Mail-Artists was sending out traditional mail and integrated the e-mail and Internet with their communication. There is now a new generation out there that discovered mail-art through the Internet and only after that started with the sending and receiving of mail-art. What made you choose for the slow and old-fashioned mail? You could send a digital images instead? What made you send out mail the old-fashioned way?

70) M@IL-@RT and INTERNET

68) Self-promotion or Networking?

I notice that the tendency of some mail-artists is to post just anywhere their work without any reaction to the place where they publish their work. Have some forgot the interaction that is so basis to mail-art?

66) Are there too many blogs?

Nowadays there are so many blogs that everybody is posting but no-one really has the time to go to all the other blogs. Communication is slowly coming to a new point where the blogs are taken over by social networks. Do you agree?

65) Mail-Art and Publishing Books

After decades of doing Mail-Art I too started to publish books with the result of what I have written over the years and found out. I notice that the mail-artists tend not to buy these books. Is there a reason for this? Don't they want to pay money for books on the subject? Should mail-Art and money not be mixed?
