- News:
- With a federal election upon us, not two weeks after $50m in cuts to the arts, we're are feeling a little scared, a little mad, a little mischievious, a little "different". We've gotten involved with the Department of Culture: http://www.new.facebook.com/groups.php?ref=sb#/group.php?gid=74279395062
You might want to too. Make some anti-conservative sense, make yourself and others feel better, make a difference, make art like your life depended on it.
old news
The group's been pretty much static for a while now. Thanks for not quitting. It's actually quite hard to exceed the FB limit of 100 groups though isn't it?
After Christmas, or over the holiday, I'm going to do some work on the group. I'm thinking of changing the focus to artworks developed specifically for FB, or social network sites, or maybe including the web. See, for example, the most recently posted Photo. If you have any thoughts about this direction, let me know.
Not so Recent News:
ARGUMENTA - Thank you to Clive Robertson for his note:
"In relational artwear development news it was announced late yesterday that ARGUMENTA’s negotiations with BLOGUMENTA over a takeover bid for WHATCHUMENTA? has been suspended until the next annual textholders meeting."
See discussion group for more "...enta" variations.

BLOGUMENTA STAMPS
Thanks to Billy Mavreas for allowing Blogumenta to use his work to create a sample Blogumenta stamp. These stamp editions can be created using Canada Post's own application. If you are interested in having your work 'stampified', please get in touch for more details.
A single stamp looks like this:

A full sheet of 40 stamps looks like this:

Old Recent News:
New works by Jann LM Bailey including an awesome pic of Mary Kelly with her work. That is illustrious company indeed. Thank you! Also to Jay Wilson for giving us permission to post a pic of his Perfect Documenta, showing currently at Red Head in Toronto. I wonder what a Perfect Blogumenta would look like!
