Sorted Books

I worked in a bookstore while I was going to University. Over the course of time, we discovered that there was someone who was coming into the bookstore and wrecking havoc on the shelves by maliciously shelving books in the wrong place.  I would have looked upon them more kindly if they were doing this project by Nina Katchadourian:

The Sorted Books project culls through a collection of books, pulling particular titles, and eventually grouping the books into clusters so that the titles can be read in sequence, from top to bottom.

I don't normally read my horoscope, but I did and found this to be very uplifting:

New age author Bob Frissell wrote a book called Nothing in This Book Is True, But It's Exactly How Things Are. It contains a host of seemingly far-fetched theories about UFOs, crop circles, ascended masters, earth changes, and momuments on Mars, all of which adds up to a beguiling Theory of Everything about the hidden nature of reality. I see your life right now as having resemblances to this curious tome. If I had to give a title to the next chapter of your story, it might be "Nothing That's Happening Will Make Much Sense Until It Has Finished Happening, Whereupon It will Yield a Burst of Insight about the Big Picture of Your Destiny."

you've got mail

Ritta Ikonen created about 150 mail art pieces and sent them to Margaret Huber (one lucky recipient!) over the last 6 years. I'm amazed the post office actually accepted and delivered them*!

I love to receive mail and would adore receiving one of these creative pieces. See more pics and read more about it here

(*Margaret does note: "I soon realised that Riitta was not only recording her experiences, but also using the postcards to test the dedication, patience and humour of the postal system." Love it!)
