EC Mail Art Exchange Documentation

​Firstly, a HUGE thanks for those that participated in the EC Mail Art Exchange project, I thoroughly enjoyed receiving such wonderful and inspiring pieces (visually and sonically!).

I’ve dabbled in Mail Art on and off for a few years now, the act of physically making, writing and dispatching a postcard/letter/object to a friend or fellow artist on the other side of the world is always a rewarding experience. Not forgetting, the delight of arriving back home and discovering mail art goodies stuffed in your letterbox!

Michael, thanks so much for posting all the beautiful and cool pieces that you received. It's interesting to see how our collective interest in sound and music is reflected in the repeated images of birds, water and llamas! Very poetic-- just like Mr. T.S. Eliot as pictured in Jeremiah's Welcome to the Wasteland postcard.

    As an artist I create works in various formats, but most often it involves sound and found objects.

    Some things I like to explore (in no particular order):
    self-referential, functionality,
    self-destruction, deterioration, unwanted, time, play, unplayable, infinity, materiality, nonsense, anti, nothing, everything, dada, rules, contrasting, ephemerality, dirt, obsolete, loop, history, collage, hidden, nostalgia, Lo-fi, DIY, analogue and collaboration.

    Since 2006 I’ve recorded and very occasionally performed Experimental Noise and other sonic adventures under the name Zebra Mu.
    Norfolk Trotter is my current HNW side-project (I also recorded under Acerbitas from 2010 – 2014).

    Quagga Curious Sounds
    is my ultra-DIY Noise/Experimental/Weird/Art music label which I’ve ran since 2008.
    I’m also one half of the Multimedia Drawing, Sonic Art and Zine collaboration Ridge & Scrase.
