The Babynous Cult & yours truly

thanks to Dan Waber i've been having a chance to revisit some of the VAN back-files... i'm still stunned by these Babynous Cult pieces that i included in VAN #88 (above) & VAN #96 (below) ... the one above was a "modiferize" & pass sheet that Babynous did on a credit card application form... and yes i did pass it on (to jw curry if memory serves me well) (but not before making a colour copy, eh?) & the one below was on the back of a mail-art call for skeletons by C.Z. Lovecraft... anyway, The Babynous Cult is dead, but the deposed leader is "homeless on (or in?) Oahu" and is blogging at: http://transamoebae.blogspot.com (but be forwarned some of the art is a little... FRIGHTENING!!!)

derek has a book of visual poetry just out with Talonbooks: http://www.talonbooks.com/

JCSYNTHETICS, Leftwich, Bennett & me (from 2002)

this is a copy of an addnpass (which i did in fact pass on) plus the lower left corner which is a copy of an ATC which i think i sent to The Babynous Cult back in '02... whatever happened to jcsynth? and i wonder what happened to that ATC?
