Hi everyone, I want to thank ARLIS folks for such great participation so far in the postcard exchange project, "How's the weather here there?" I'm sharing updates on social media (mainly Instagram) using this hashtag *#howstheweatherherethere* if anyone is interested in seeing some pictures and stories throughout the year. In this time of physical social distancing and COVID-19 impacting us all, the postcard exchange provides an opportunity to connect and takes on even more significance as a record of the year 2020. What a crazy time! I would love to read your reflective note and write one back to you. Thanks again to so many of you who have participated already. Also, here is a post about it on my website with a little more info: http://erinfussell.com/new/ and here is the original invitation that was sent to the list in January: 2020 marks a new decade, a leap year, and an election year in the United States. All year, January 1 - December 31, 2020, I invite you to participate in a postcard exchange art project called, "How's the weather here there?" To participate, describe your current inner and outer landscape (physical space, emotional state, whatever that means to you) on a postcard as many times as you want this year and mail it to me: Erin Fussell P.O. Box 13414 Los Angeles, CA 90013 If you include a return address, I will write back to you describing mine in that particular moment. The project will exhibit in 2021. Addresses redacted for public presentation. Wishing you all good health and peace, Erin Fussell Artist | Digital Library Assistant, Getty Research Institute | MLIS student, SJSU iSchool ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask] For information about joining ARLIS/NA see: http://www.arlisna.org/membership/join-arlisna Send administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask] ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.arlisna.org Questions may be addressed to list owner (Judy Dyki) at: [log in to unmask] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
