The book of Ann is the 12th FRIOUR project.

Who is Ann? For me she is a real person.
For you she's a mythical femail.

Let's construct together the book of Ann!

How does she feel? How does she thinks? How does she act? Is she a rebel? Is she a mother? Is she the salt of the earth?

Free size and medium. Text and poems are also welcome. Deadline for contributions is 31 December 2011.
All the contributions will be united in a time capsule.
Documentation on this blog.
Unfriendly femail mail art will be banned.

Mail address: The book of Ann, c/o Guido Vermeulen, Thomas Vinçottestreet 81, B-1030 Brussels, Belgium

ANN, TIME IS UP...



A poem from John Bennett, USA, (c) Luna Bisonte Prods 2011
The 2 censored lines happened by accident and were not intentional. So here they are:

TIME YOUR ASH PHONING TO ASPIRATION

TIME YOUR FOG BARKING TO YOUR FACE

When you scan an image and you scan again a part inside that scanned image, this part becomes black, meaning that you can make a perfect cut up with a scanning machine. For those who don't understand cut ups. You take a text and make another text using some words of that text while dumping all other words.

ANN, TRYING TO FORGET (you)



A poem from John Bennett, USA, (c) Luna Bisonte Prods 2011
