Mail to Ryosuke Cohen – Japan – October 2018
Letter written and sent to Ryosuke Cohen. He has been making this many Brain Cells that in return I always send him some handmade works so he knows I appreciate his work. This time a larger envelope went to him. Below you can see the cover on which the address was hand painted:
In a few week I will see what he did use or did not use. Just wanted him to get a nice surprise too. The content has also some handpainted fluxus words in it, so he can read them when he gets the piece

Outgoing to Picasso Gaglione – USA
I promissed Picasso Gaglione in USA some time ago to send him some prints of found rubberstamps. So this is the first start to keep that promis. As usual a decorated enveloppe and inside some small surprises for Picasso which I won’t spoil to much in this blog.

Another envelope travels to Ryosuke Cohem to be part of the Braincell project. Soon the 1000th issue will come. It is expected end of this year 2017. Ryosuke has told he will continue the braincells as long as he can. So the collection grows and spreads over the network.
Rubberstamps
In The TAM Rubberstamp Archive there are lots of rubberstamps. Some I use quite often, like the two I show here.
Outgoing to Ryosuke Cohen (Japan) – September 16th 2017
Ryosuke Cohen has been doing his Brain Cells since 1985, and this year the 1000th issue is expected. I estimate that I have about 400-500 of his Brain Cells in the TAM Archive, including that very first one also. Today I decided to write him a letter and use the typewriter for that.
Because Ryosuke always chooses an image for including on his Brain Cell I always make sure he has a lot to choose from on the enveloppe. The traditional envelopes are made as I print stamps from the TAM Archive on a regular basis to send the collection back into the network in a printed form.
