S.A.S.E. uses the idea of the self addressed stamped envelope as its foundation (a method of distribution within the postal mail system that is always initiated by the one who wants to receive the information).

This method of distribution was (futilely) translated into a digital communication system, e-mail.

Eleven people were asked to organize an exhibition of images that would be contained within the space of an e-mail.

Ten e-mail exhibitions were created (each includes a selection of images, a statement, and a works list).

All the images were found online - either from web-sites or in e-mails.

To receive the e-mail exhibition one would initiate the process by sending a request e-mail.

The exhibition e-mail would then be sent to the requester.

HOW TO RECEIVE AN E-MAIL EXHIBITION:

‚ñ∏ Each e-mail exhibition must be requested individually
‚ñ∏ Send an e-mail to sase.asdf@gmail.com
‚ñ∏ Copy the title of the exhibition you want and paste it into the
e-mail subject

‚ñ∏ Within 1-7 days your exhibition will arrive in your e-mail box
‚ñ∏ NOTE: We will not be personally reading these emails
‚ñ∏ NOTE: You must paste the show title exactly how it appears below
(a program will automatically be replying to the e-mails)

EXAMPLE: if you want Paul Branca’s, paste “Dont…Where…You…” into the e-mail subject, and send it sase.asdf@gmail.com
