 I have received Mail Art from Pedro Bericat, specifically it is the CD "1 minute autohypnosis sex war noise faith white truth light europe death seed red net Jung dollar neo time love-in city twenty new Cage zen self LSD dose Tesla sea place breaking-up father x-ray future loud blood sweat tears hope hero endless Pilar". The release is framed within the series "1 minute autohypnosis ..." a sound project of the aforementioned artist, which can be accessed here: http://www.mutesound.org/1_minute_project/ Pedro Bericat (www.mutesound.org) is a Spanish artist (sound art, performance, mail art, ...) who has been developing his activities since the 80's, at least that I have knowledge. My first contact with his work was in the middle of that time through the magazine Particular Motors, published by the S.T.I. (Zaragoza, Spain) and since then I have been a great admirer of his work, having the luck and pleasure of collaborating with Pedro on several occasions, as is the case on this CD. On the website where it is possible to listen to and download this CD, Pedro Bericat has kindly uploaded the cassette that I sent him and from which the extract included in the CD was obtained. I remember that for the cassette I used, apart from my own material (especially anti-records and cassette manipulation), sound material sent by Pedro Bericat and EC member Nicolas Malevitsis.  It is possible that in the future I can show you more sound works from Pedro Bericat and my own works for Mute Sound that I have in my archives... it's just a matter of finding the necessary wires and the required expertise to digitize it. A whole world inhospitable to me, but I'm brave, I think.

I love the pacakaging it was mailed in. Also that has to be one of the greatest album titles that I've read in quite a while!
