-Josh Ronsen, Austin, Texas, USA

PROJECTS I STARTED:

1. ONGOING PROJECT: Add&Pass Cut&Paste Zine — Add & Pass pages are cut up and bound into small booklets.
2. ONGOING PROJECT: Tiny Art Exchange — contact me for an invitation
3. REVISING THE CENTURY — 41 artists helped me alter photos of the 20th Century.
4. TINY BOX — 50 people submitted tiny multiples of 25. These were placed in tiny handmade boxes.
5. MAIL ANT — Some 33 artists sent me ant art. These were turned into a poster. I have a few leftover copies available for trade for interesting publications.
6. TACMA — in 2005 I founded the Texas Association of Concerned Mail Artists. We have done 2 group projects and are working on a third.
7. Huxley story mutation
8. The Pierre Boulez Project
9. First Words Project — I asked for the first words people heard after getting my request. The responses were put in word balloons over ants.
10. Monk Mink Pink Punk #8 — a collection of 3 Mail Art projects, “music heard in dreams,” stories using 39 words from a Lawrence Durrell novel, examples of “Josh Ronsen” written by numerous artists, friends and musicians.
11. Index Card project — I sent card catalog/index cards to 20 mail artists. 4 returned them, filed out.
12. Monk Mink Pink Punk #10 — an informative pamphlet: “Mail Art: Know the Dangers!”
13. Collaborative Story — an exquisite corpse project
14. Monk Mink Pink Punk #13 — an assembly zine on the theme “Text Play.”
