Here's to less time in front of my screen and more time standing next to a
sweet press. And, since South Bend was my birthplace, I feel it no less that my
destiny to get back to that ink.
Yes, it sounds very cool. I'd like to participate if the idea rolls.
Happy New Year!

Subject: [ilssa] here's to 2011 !
dear fellow impractical laborers,
As 2010 concludes, we have some news to share:
2010 members, there will be another Quarterly shipped to you! It
will, alas, not be sent before the end of 2010, but rest assured that
you will receive another 2010 in early 2011. As many hours as it takes!
It is not too early, however, to renew your membership for 2011.
Simply visit http://www.impractical-labor.org/join.html and select
"2011 membership". Membership dues remain $12 a year.
And: we have an exciting opportunity for 2011 members. ILSSA's Krista
Hoefle (Local 574 Shop KH) has invited ILSSA to mount an exhibition
at the Gallery at Saint Mary's College in Notre Dame, Indiana. The
show will open in January 2012. As it is a year away, we have dreamed
up a little idea that makes use of those very same hours.
ILSSA is an organization about process, and we'd like this -- the
first ILSSA exhibition -- to exhibit evidence of our members'
processes, for every day we each work in 2011. How so?
For each day you labor impractically, beginning on January 1, 2011
and through December 31, 2011: please save a remnant of your process.
It should be small enough to fit in an envelope. Date the envelope,
put it in a box, and and repeat for each day worked. In January 2011,
mail this box to the gallery (details forthcoming, don't fret about
cost, etc.). Our plan is to display these remnants, giving visitors a
sense of the collective days worked by our union, as well as the
nature of such work.
Logistics aside, we're trying to gauge interest, as we'd like
everyone to begin saving as of January 1st!
Please email operator@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx as soon as possible and
let us know if you are interested in taking part or not. Yes!! or No.
is all we need at this time; further details forthcoming.
best & warmest,
your co-ops

AS MANY HOURS AS IT TAKES
