The Musical Printer. Listen to MP3 samples of an IBM 1403 printer from 1964 generating music. Fab. Thanks to Andy (do you have a website?) in Dubai. Oh: I can just imagine the amount of dead trees it must have cost to get those programmes running. 6:20:16 PM     |

WW II Poster Collection. Michelle's been posting posters. Great link. 6:12:13 PM     |

A repeat. Because nobody took notice when I first posted it (Except Gary of course). And because it's fantastic. [27.06.2003] Aspen. The multimedia magazine in a box. Aspen magazine was published by Phyllis Johnson from 1965 to 1971. Each issue came in a customized box filled with booklets, phonograph recordings, posters, postcards - one issue even included a spool of Super-8 movie film. Artists included JG Ballard, Peter Blake, John Cage, Ira Cohen, Philip Glass, David Hockney, John Lennon, Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol... And here it is reborn as a web version, with the recordings as MP3 files, the movies as Quicktime movies, a full documentary and lots of other stuff. Enjoy. It's ... FAB. 2:09:54 PM     |

Artistamps. Mail art: a gallery of stamps created by artists. Fascinating. I think I'll start designing some stamps myself. Must be fun. This Gallery is dedicated to exhibiting a variety of Artistamp images from around the world with an emphasis on the very earliest and the most recent creations. As well, the Gallery presents the Artistamp images and Cyberstamps of Jas. 1:18:26 PM     |

London Bridges. On stamps. 12:22:27 PM     |

Petzi, Pelle & Pingo is the title of a Danish comic strip series that has been published all over Europe since the early fifties. I couldn't find even one website about Petzi the little bear anywhere in English language - so here are two German websites: The Petzi Research Website and Petzi, Pelle and Pingo. 10:43:58 AM     |
