Hi Netbehaviourists, Below is info about the closing and last few days of 'Do It With Others (DIWO) at the Dark Mountain' project.
Judging by the response so far, there will be plenty more people visiting the show. We have also received many who are interested in taking part in the 'Disassembly Event'. Not just that - many have contacted regarding receiving art contributed to the show via snail mail. Read the text below and let us know if you wish to receive someone else's work via snail mail, whether to just have an artwork from the project or to continue sending back out there... Be swift though, we are running out of artworks ;-) wishing all well. marc ----------------------------------------<snip> Reminder - Do It With Others (DIWO) at the Dark Mountain. http://http.uk.net The last three weeks.
