Thanks for clearing that up, I don't think anyone here is holding you accountable for being mixed race.

Should I change the July 05 dates to June 06 so it doesn't seem so back-dated? Maybe I could just change a word on each page so that they will be June 06 material...

FLUXLIST: Goatonapole
Goatonapole is the philosophy of being that holds that there is a Goat and a Pole and that the Goat is on the Pole. In the relation of Goat and Pole we Goatonapolists find an eternal thread of unfathomable cosmic significance, a point of reference in which all opposites dissolve into a unity of infinite breadth, a universal truth underlying the very fabric of existence. Upon contemplation of the Goat, the Pole, and their relative positions, one cannot help but realize that we've always been talking about Goatonapole. Whether we accept, reject, or live in ignorance of Goatonapole, we are all Goatonapolists. http://www.goatonapole.com/

FLUXLIST: $1.5 million painting gets 12-year-old's gum
(this kid belongs on fluxlist...) $1.5 million painting gets 12-year-old's gum Wednesday, March 1, 2006; Posted: 12:03 p.m. EST (17:03 GMT) A 12-year-old boy stuck his gum on a masterpiece (1:32) DETROIT, Michigan (AP) -- Apparently, one 12-year-old visitor to the Detroit Institute of Arts doesn't think much of abstract art. The boy stuck a wad of gum to a $1.5 million painting called The Bay by Helen Frankenthaler, leaving a stain the size of a quarter, officials said. The boy, who was not identified because of his age, was part of a school group that was visiting the museum last week when officials said he took a piece of gum out of his mouth and stuck it on the 1963 painting. (Watch why the boy put the goo on the canvas, see the stain -- 1:32) The gum stuck to the painting's lower left corner and did not adhere to the fiber of the canvas, officials told the Detroit Free Press. But it left a chemical residue about the size of a quarter, said Becky Hart, assistant curator of contemporary art. The museum's conservation department is researching the chemicals in the gum to decide which solvent to use to clean it. The museum hopes to make the repair in two weeks and will keep The Bay on display in the meantime, she said. Our expectation is that the painting is going to be fine, Hart said. Holly Academy director Julie Kildee said the boy had been suspended from the charter school and says his parents also have disciplined him. He is only 12, and I don't think he understood the ramifications of what he did before it happened, but he certainly understands the severity of it now, said Kildee.

MACHUNAS is a performance oratorio based on the life of George Maciunas, written by composer Frank J. Oteri and visual artist Lucio Pozzi. The screening is free. There's a website about the piece at http://www.machunas.com/ Inquiries about the piece should go to Frank Oteri; a google search on his name will turn up a number of email addresses at which he may be contacted. --Eric Free Screening of MACHUNAS Oratorio Based on the Life of George Maciunas MACHUNAS, a performance oratorio in four colors, is a collaboration between composer Frank J. Oteri and visual artist Lucio Pozzi. It was inspired by/based on four key episodes in the life and death of George Maciunas, architect, artist, activist and founder of the Fluxus art movement, the last avantgarde utopia of the modern era. Yellow: a young child in a Lithuania about to be extinguished by Nazis and Soviets. Green: a teenager out of place and time in an American-controlled refugee camp in Germany. Red: a revolutionary crusader protesting the Vietnam War, founding Fluxus, and igniting the downtown SoHo art community. Blue: a forgotten and rejected outcast dying prematurely of cancer in rural Massachusetts. The score ranges from Lithuanian folkloric songs, Baroque and Romantic music, twelve-tone and minimalist compositional structures, and a fluxus rock band featuring electric guitars, sax, banjo, and a live radio. We'll screen a video recording of the August 2005 premiere at the Vilnius Contemporary Art Centre, Lithuania, where the main floor of the museum was emptied, and the audience followed the action from room to room. Technology permitting, Oteri and Pozzi will join us from New York and Italy after the screening. Chestnut Lecture Hall, Tuesday, February 21st, 7-10pm

Ray agreed to the transaction the following day delivered the collage to his buyer with a quarter of the collage removed. now that's art!~mIEKALOn Feb 12, 2006, at 8:37 AM, jimsters grailsters wrote:fun fun fun, no doubt.its nice to see the drawing in return come alive on the screenray johnson would have like this.[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Click Here: Check out "Sketch Swap" Yahoo!

FLUXLIST: another Nam June story
(this from poet critic Walter Lew. you gotta wonder how crazy stories Paik left behind...) From: Walter K. Lew [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: February 6, 2006 7:19:05 AM CST To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Paik Wake Reply-To: UB Poetics discussion group [EMAIL PROTECTED] There is a short video of Yoko Ono speaking at the wake at http:// www.dvblog.org/movies/02_2006/yoko_nam_june_paik.mov. I wanted desperately to be there but no flight from L.A. wd get me to New York in time without disrupting my finances and schedule of important appointments and deadlines out here. Now I'm thinking: How could I not have gone? The more I remember Nam June Paik (his Korean name wd be pronounced Paeng Nam-june), his work, and his dilemmas, the more I realize how deeply influenced I was by him. Some transitions one must attend no matter what. I think anyone who spent more than a few minutes with Nam June must have a great anecdote to tell. Once at a dinner at his loft (I think he was still a squatter there at the time), he impishly disappeared again and again throughout the evening while his partner, the video artist Shigeko Kubota, valiantly played hostess to the curators I had tagged along with. Sometimes we'd find him sitting cross-kneed under the dining table, other times reclining behind a pile of large storage boxes. He had a cold. At the end of the evening, he took a large bowl of wasabi with him into his makeshift editing booth; apparently he was going to pinch wads of it in his nose to clear his sinuses and stay awake all night. I loved his impromptu lectures on street corners in the East Village and Soho, standing in 2 am shadows. He had been in voluntary exile from S. Korea and nearly cut off by his family, who were ashamed of his antics, but by the mid-80s, Seoul wanted to be forgiven by him and enticed him back as it entered the international cultural stage big-time with its hosting of the 1986 Asian Games and 1988 Olympics. He obliged with nationally broadcast pieces that mystified, even angered most of the Korean audiences of the time. (They had been expecting something along the lines of a good TV movie that showed Korean values to the world.) He became famous for showing up on evening talk shows and doing nothing but laughing, pulling strange faces, or providing incoherent answers to his hosts' clueless questions. It reminded me of some of Harpo Marx's best scenes. I would watch gleefully with my aunt's family, who always concluded that he was insane. And that I was an idiot (pabo) for trying to shoot his every appearance (and that of my favorite pop singers) directly from the TV screen with an antiquated super-8 camera. In the middle of winter, in the early 1980s, he wd regularly show up near midnight at a Korean Japanese restaurant on Bleecker St. near NYU to pick up 4 or 5 orders of hot beef soup (komt'ang). He sometimes had a suggestion for a book topic that might make me rich. I think the last one was to write about the life and death of a kamikaze pilot. He didn't think one had been written yet. I was lazy and never wrote such a book. My father attended the same high school as Nam June and his older brother did, who was my father's classmate. The Japanese Imperial Army was hurting for money and there was a box for contributions in the classroom. Everytime my father spoke Korean instead of Japanese by mistake, he had to go up and deposit a coin as punishment. One day there was a special ceremony because the Paik family had contributed enough money to build an entire Mitsubishi Zero fighter plane. Nam June never hid the fact that his family had been very prosperous merchants for many generations, originally (he said) selling Korean ginseng at a great profit in China. But until about the age of 50, he was always on the edge of destitution and was frequently in poor health (he seemed to suffer from gastrointestinal problems all the time and so wore a thick scarf around his belly to keep it warm). When my father visited his brother in Japan, or other people w whom he had grown up and were now financially well-off, they would always shake their heads over how much they had tried to help or advise him to be proper and successful, how hopeless he was, how the family had to cut off financial support b/c he was so irresponsible, etc. That was their attitude even after he became an international art superstar. Clearly, if Nam June had stayed in Korea he would never have been allowed to develop as an artist and inventor. Now his influence there is incalculable. My first memory of his work was when I was walking to the Whitney Art Museum to see its first big Paik show. What a great exhibit that was! But before I got there, I noticed that Madison Ave. was oddly quiet and empty. The street had been cordoned off. From about two blocks away I head a gradually increasing racket

Re: FLUXLIST: Artists that use Computer/Digital as a medium
I missed the original post, but I'm guessing this was about early computer artists (since everybody their grandmother is a digital artist these days, including myself). Herbert Brun was an amazing fellow who I've had the fortune to spend some time with when he taught a summer course here at Dreamtime. I'm having a hard time pulling the exact references up on the net, but I seem to remember that he worked on Eniac, one of those early monstrous mainframes the size of a house, generating algorhythmic music computer graphics, I'm guessing in the early 50s but it may have been a few years later. He was also very involved in Cybernetics.http://www.herbertbrun.org/
FLUXLIST: Smashing Duchamp
Conceptual Artist as Vandal: Walk Tall and Carry a Little Hammer (or Ax) By ALAN RIDING Published: January 7, 2006 http://www.nytimes.com/2006/01/07/arts/design/07duch.html PARIS, Jan. 6 - The Dada movement made its name in the early 20th century by trying to destroy the conventional notion of art. Taking literal inspiration from their exploits this week, a latter-day neo- Dadaist took a small hammer to Marcel Duchamp's Fountain, the factory-made urinal that is considered the cornerstone of Conceptual Art. The assailant, a French performance artist named Pierre Pinoncelli, was immediately arrested after his act of vandalism, which took place on Wednesday, during the final days of the Dada exhibition at the Pompidou Center. The porcelain urinal was slightly chipped in the attack and was withdrawn to be restored. (The exhibition runs through Monday.) Mr. Pinoncelli, 77, who urinated into the same urinal and struck it with a hammer in a show in Nîmes in 1993, has a long record of organizing bizarre happenings. Police officials said he again called his action a work of art, a tribute to Duchamp and other Dada artists. Indeed, Fountain itself was rejected for being neither original nor art when Duchamp offered it for the first exhibition of the Society of Independent Artists in New York in 1917. That version of the urinal, displayed upside down and signed R. Mutt, was subsequently lost. The Pompidou's Fountain is one of eight signed replicas made by Duchamp in 1964. After the attack on Wednesday, Mr. Pinoncelli was held by the police overnight. He was released on Thursday and ordered to appear in court here on Jan. 24 to answer charges of damaging the property of others. As in 1993, he could face a prison term or a fine. (After the first urinal attack, he was jailed for a month and fined the equivalent of $37,500.) The Pompidou Center said it was too early to know the cost of restoring the work. (Curators said a different Duchamp urinal was already scheduled for inclusion in the version of the show traveling to the National of Gallery of Art in Washington, Feb. 19 through May 14, and to the Museum of Modern Art in New York, June 18 through Sept. 11.) The vandalism raises the persistent question of how valuable works of art can be protected in museums that log millions of visitors each year. Many paintings on display today are shielded by glass. At the Louvre, the Mona Lisa, which was stolen in 1911 and struck by a stone in 1956, is now in a sealed enclosure behind 1.52-inch-thick glass. Mr. Pinoncelli's attack also refocuses attention on the perennial question of what defines art. The question, playfully yet provocatively raised by the Dada movement nearly a century ago, has been refreshed since the 1980's by succeeding waves of Conceptual, installation and performance art. Like this week's case, such protests are often waged by artists themselves. In 1999, for example, two Chinese artists, Yuan Cai and Jian Jun Xi Ianjun, jumped on My Bed, a work by the British artist Tracey Emin comprising an unmade bed accompanied by empty bottles, dirty underwear and used condoms, that was on view at Tate Britain. The following year, the same two artists urinated on the Tate Modern's version of Fountain, noting that Duchamp himself said artists defined art. A British artist, Michael Landy, held what he called Break Down in an empty department store in London in 2001: in this happening, he destroyed all his possessions, including art donated by friends. Two other British artists, the Chapman brothers, were accused of vandalism in 2003 when they added the faces of clowns and puppets to the 80 etchings in an edition of Goya's Disasters of War that they had purchased. In 1991, an artist generally described as unbalanced attacked Michelangelo's David statue in Florence, Italy, and damaged a foot. Among numerous other protests, blue dye was sprayed over Carl Andre's display of bricks at the Tate Gallery in London in 1976, and black ink was squirted into a transparent container displaying Damien Hirst's dead sheep preserved in formaldehyde at the Serpentine Gallery in London. Still, not all vandalism is intended: another work by Mr. Hirst on display in a Mayfair gallery in 2001 - half-full coffee cups, dirty ashtrays, beer bottles and the like - was thrown away by cleaners who mistook it for refuse. The same thing happened at Tate Britain in 2004 to a work by Gustav Metzger, a bag of trash titled Recreation of First Public Demonstration of Auto-Destructive Art. In the case of Mr. Pinoncelli, who could not be reached on Friday, nothing is accidental. After he urinated in and damaged Fountain in the Carré d'Art in Nîmes, he said he wanted to rescue the work from its inflated status and restore it to its original use as a urinal. Since the early 1960's, Mr. Pinoncelli, based in

FLUXLIST: announcing XEROLAGE 36 by Lanny Quarles
X E R O L A G E 3 6 Linear Arrangements, more Effects from our Primorial Constraints by Lanny Quarles http://xexoxial.org/xerolage/x36.html I absolutely love these works, which for me fall between my two favorite concrete poets, John Furnival and Dom Sylvester Houedard —both of whom also worked with fundamental lettering. But Quarles' code strikes deeper, since it is an effected one; it carries the same archaeology as cuneiform—strokes, layers, countries, languages, intermingled, interspersed. These pieces could be tablets whose coding speaks, however troubled, to countries beyond us. I think of our languaging (in relation to Xerolage 36) as imminent, momentary; I think of these works as simultaneously bound to a particular instance of coding (ascii, Internet), and smeared or parcelled among other frames, cultures, organisms. I've always admired the baroque, even mannerist, quality of Quarles' style, which comes to fruition here on the printed page. —Alan Sondheim This looks really interesting, would be even more interesting in print I'm sure. Printed or etched on silicon. Like a billboard up close its breaking down imagery into fundamental units of on of, squinty pixels. And I remember the pictures he is talking about at fairs and where not, where they would print your pictures on a dot matrix printer. The influence of his work as a photolithographer shows as well. —Derek White I think this early exposure to the mutability, and imagistic capability of language has subconsciously effected my entire life, and my relation to language as a visual component. I have thought about many possible threads of meaning for these pieces, but ended up slightly dissatisfied with their various limitations.

FLUXLIST: THE TELEMATIC ART - THE ART OF PERCEPTION
THE TELEMATIC ART - THE ART OF PERCEPTION 2005 - THE YEAR OF THE FIVE IN ARTPOOL ... we should depart from the principle that we are modes of junctions, rather than individuals. In other words, I is a word that others pronounce as you. Thus, we are dealing with a function word: I is the you of the other person. Or: in defining my own identity, first of all I must distinguish myself. Parity and disparity are interdependent notions. The same can be found in psychoanalysis, neurophysiology and neuropsychology. These all point to the same direction. At the heart of telematics is a type of anthropology that does not perceive the human person as an individual, but rather as the manner how systems of relations function; as the realization of possible links. The intersubjective field is a virtual space in which an individual is a node in the net, inasmuch as materiality is a node in the energetic space. A call to participate in the autumn research project at Artpool THE EXPERIMENTER THE ART OF PERCEPTION The Understanding of Freedom in the Correlation of the Apparatus and the Functionary. Starting from the photographic situation, Vilém Flusser termed the camera as an apparatus and the photographer (the experimental photographer) as a functionary. In his book, Towards a Philosophy of Photography, he described his expansion on this model, to arrive at an explanation of human freedom within the universe of photography (in the post-industrial context). The so-called experimental photographer (the functionary) is truly aware that the underlying concepts, such as image, apparatus, program, information, are the fundamental problems s/he has to tackle. A philosophy of photography is needed in order for this photographic practice to be brought to the level of consciousness, which is, in turn, required, since in this practice, at least, a model of freedom manifests itself, in a post-industrial context. As usual in Artpool's practice, the participants of the project are not constrained in terms of genre, medium or otherwise; submitted materials, after having been displayed at the exhibition/event in Artpool P60 and on the website will be stored in the Artpool Archives. http://www.artpool.hu/2005/invitation.html Deadline of submission: October 25, 2005 Artpool Art Research Center, H -1277 Budapest 23, Pf.52 · [EMAIL PROTECTED] Best wishes from György Galántai --- Vilém Flusser's key words, compiled from book and magazine publications, lectures, and interviews. Edited by Andreas Müller-Pohle and Bernd Neubauer (excerpts) Apparatus: A toy that simulates thought and is so complex that the person playing with it cannot comprehend it; its game consists of combinations of symbols contained in its program; while fully automated apparatuses have no need of human intervention, many apparatuses require humans as players and functionaries. Functionary: The functionary dominates the apparatus through controlling its exterior (input and output), and is in turn dominated by the opacity of its interior. In other words, functionaries are people who dominate a game for which they are not competent. Kafka. Photo criticism: The question to be asked is: How far has the photographer succeeded in submitting the camera program to his own intentions, and by what methods? And: How far has the camera succeeded in deflecting the photographer's intentions, and by what methods? Photographic gesture: A gesture of hunting, where the photographer and the camera unite to become a single, indivisible function. The gesture seeks new situations, never before seen; it seeks what is improbable; it seeks information. The structure of the gesture is quantal: it is one of doubt composed of point-like hesitations and point-like decisions. It is a typically post-industrial gesture: it is post-ideological and programmed, and it takes information to be real in itself, and not the meaning of that information. Picture: A significant surface. In most cases, it signifies something out there, and is meant to render that thing imaginable for us, by abstracting it, by reducing its four dimensions of space-plus-time to the two dimensions of the plane. Reality: What we perceive as reality is a tiny detail from the field of possibilities surging around us which our nervous system has realized through computation. If all reality is a computation from possibilities, then reality is a threshold value. Telematics: The technology that enables the present discursive circuit diagram for technical images to be converted into one that is dialogic. In telematic dialogues, human and artificial memories exchange information, out of which new information is synthesized and then stored in artificial memories. The actual purpose behind telematics is to make

FLUXLIST: Fwd: [spidertangle] Fw: Ellsworth Snyder, esteemed leader in the arts, dies at 74
Ellsworth Snyder, esteemed leader in the arts, dies at 74 By Jacob Stockinger August 12, 2005 Ellsworth Snyder, a longtime dean of classical music and the visual arts in Madison, has died. The urbane and modest Snyder, who always used lowercase letters to spell his name, was 74 when he died late Thursday morning at University Hospital. According to his caregivers, he had been admitted Wednesday after suffering an apparent heart attack at his apartment in the Meriter Retirement Home near the Square. Snyder had been in failing health for several years due to cancer and then a deteriorating lung condition. Doctors said the condition was worsened by the thick smoke of the recent fire at St. Raphael Cathedral. A memorial service is tentatively set for Sunday, Aug. 28, at 4 p.m. at the First Unitarian Society, 900 University Bay Drive. Snyder's remains will be cremated and his ashes will be interred at Grace Episcopal Church beside those of Nathan Samuel Blount, his longtime partner who preceded him in death more than decade ago. Snyder was known to friends as a sociable man of grace and good humor who lent charm and a smiling face to the sometimes stridently serious avant-garde that he championed. He was one of a kind, said the Rev. Michael Schuler, director of the First Unitarian Society, who worked with Snyder as the society's music director for 12 years. He was not really a true church musician, but instead someone who created a unique musical program for a faith community that raised the profile of both the institution and its congregation. I found him to be incredibly intelligent and knowledgeable, Schuler said. But he also worked extraordinarily well with people at all different levels of talent. He created a sense of community. Ellsworth was a man of very generous spirit, said Stephen Fleischman, director of the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art, formerly the Madison Art Center. Snyder left much of his extensive art collection to the center. Not only was he a talented musician, but he had an excellent eye as a painter and a collector, Fleischman, said. He has been exceedingly generous to us. And he was very important on a number of levels - as an enthusiast and a collector who gave encouragement to artists around him and as an artist who pursued his own work. This was a man who made the most of every day. There was a strong will there. The man was blessed with amazing amounts of energy and enthusiasm and talent. There was a less well known traditional side to Snyder, who performed mainstream classics by Mozart and Schubert in concerts and who collected African, Asian, Chinese, American Indian and Eskimo art as well as works by contemporary artists. But he was best known for his taste for the cutting edge. He was a member of the national avant-garde group Fluxus and personally knew titans of modern American art like composer John Cage, choreographer Merce Cunningham and painter Robert Rauschenberg. He was an artist of unusual intelligence, said Grace Chosy, a retired art dealer and gallery owner who first started showing and selling Snyder's minimalist paintings and drawings in the early 1980s. He had looked at lots and lots of work and knew so much about making and appreciating art. As a person, he was a wonderful, wonderful human being. I'll miss him, and so will a large number of people in Madison. He had a huge circle of very loyal friends. Snyder embodied the tolerant and cultured humanist. Born in Ohio and educated first at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music and then at the UW-Madison, where he received his doctorate, he influenced the entire music scene in Madison. I was aware of Ellsworth as soon as I got to Madison, said pianist Howard Karp, a retired artist-in-residence at the UW who spoke from a vacation spot in Colorado. He was always doing avant-garde things that were very stimulating. But he also knew the classical literature inside and out. He was a devoted teacher who was inspiring to his students. He had an encyclopedic knowledge of the great singers and great pianists of the past, yet he also knew everything about contemporary music. He had a unique way of playing and was an all-round musician I admired greatly. Others agreed. Ellsworth was a remarkable person and a close personal friend, said Max Gaebler, retired pastor of First Unitarian Society, where Snyder served as music director from 1971 until he retired in 2000. He took over our music program when it had been weak, and then it was off and flying. He was a tremendously innovative person. He had ideas about music and the arts in general that appeared novel to some of us at the time, but he made them happen. Snyder started the society's special All-Music Sundays, Friday Noon Musicales and the annual summer music series, which ended just this year after 31 seasons. He was always fun, added Carolyn Gaebler, Max's wife, who sang in the choir under Snyder's direction for many years. He kept us in the choir

I am told he succumbed peacefully, attended by loving friends, in his beloved state of Maine on Sunday afternoon to the esophageal cancer that he was diagnosed with last year. Carlo, always the fighter, far outlived the time that doctors had predicted he would have on the planet. He was determined to live life to its fullest as long as he could, and this he certainly did. He was such a passionate artist. I wrote this [http://www.panmodern.com/carlopittore.html] last year when I heard about his illness. We then had a tribute for him in October at the Bowery Poetry Club in New York to which some of you sent messages. I forwarded them to him. He enjoyed watching the video and reading and hearing about the messages from his many friends. I now welcome other tributes to Carlo as well as suggestions about how we might remember him with art. Send your suggestions and thoughts and wishes. I will forward along any information that I get as it comes in- back to you and also to his friends and family in Maine and New York who will determine what will happen next.

Sqweasels have large eyes, coats of short fur, and bushy tails. Some sqweasels bark or make loud, high-pitched chirping or whistling sounds to communicate amoung themselves. They are small, grayish animals, some of which have light-colored stripes. Their head and body length is 5 to 16 inches (13-41 centimeters) and their weight is less than 2.20 pounds (1 Kg). They have four large incisor teeth (an upper and lower pair) for gnawing. They have five toes on their hind feet and four toes on their front feet. All sqweasels have stong hind legs.

FLUXLIST: Sqweasels
Here is an article about Sqweasels by Anna Banana that is about to be deleted at wikipedia for being pure nonsense. Sqweasels have large eyes, coats of short fur, and bushy tails. Some sqweasels bark or make loud, high-pitched chirping or whistling sounds to communicate amoung themselves. They are small, grayish animals, some of which have light-colored stripes. Their head and body length is 5 to 16 inches (13-41 centimeters) and their weight is less than 2.20 pounds (1 Kg). They have four large incisor teeth (an upper and lower pair) for gnawing. They have five toes on their hind feet and four toes on their front feet. All sqweasels have stong hind legs. Some are quite dexterous and agile. The flying sqweasel has a large membrane, or loose flap of skin, connecting their forn and hind legs. Which means they can make an airborne attack. All sqweasels can run, but most are not exceptionally fast on the ground. Some sqweasels have cheek pouches where they can temporarily hold weapons. They are armed and considered extremembly dangerous. Á?? The Charming Brittish Version is spelled with a 'U', solely to be difficult. So it would be Squeasel, not Sqweasel like it should be.

The reason I say this is that in the earlier stage when this was being tested the company began to censor what images could appear on the stamps. My guess is the people who make artistamps now won't want to go through the hassle of deciding whether their subject is appropriate for a stamp. Also, I haven't broken down the cost - that is whether doing your own via color copier or having someone like Anna Banana print your stamps is cheaper than the added cost (postage plus the additional cost) of having your personalized stamp made by that company.
