>>>> Synopsis: The 12hr-ISBN-JPEG Project began January 1, 1995. A
round-the-clock posting of sequenced postmodern photographs by Brad Brace.
The 12-hour-ISBN-JPEG Project
---------------
BEGAN JANUARY 1, 1995
Classic Postmodern Photos... posted/mailed every 12 hours... perfect
trans-avant-garde art!
A continuous sequence of original photos... authentic greyscale...
compelling experience.
An extension of the printed ISBN-Book series... critically acclaimed...
imagery is gradually acquired, selected and sequenced over time...
[ see ftp.netcom.com/pub/bb/bbrace/books ]
>> Promulgated, de-centered, ambiguous, homogeneous, de-composed...
>> Multi-faceted, excentric, oblique, obsessive, obscure, opaque...
Every 12 hours, another!... view them, re-post `em, save `em,
trade `em, print `em, even sell them...
Here`s how:
~ Set www-links to -> ftp://ftp.netcom.com/pub/bb/bbrace/bbrace.html
Look for the 12-hr-icon. Heavy traffic may require you to specify files
more than once! Anarchie, Fetch, TurboGopher...
~ Download from -> ftp.netcom.com /pub/bb/bbrace
Remember to set tenex or binary. Get 12hr.jpeg
~ E-mail -> If you only have access to email, then you can use FTPmail to
do essentially the same thing. Send a message with a body of 'help' to the
server address nearest you:

ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com
ftpmail@sunsite.unc.edu

~ Mirror-sites requested! Archives too!
The latest new jpeg will always be named, 12hr.jpeg

Perl program to mirror ftp-sites/sub-directories:
src.doc.ic.ac.uk:/packages/mirror
*
~ Postings to usenet groups:
alt.binaries.pictures.12hr
alt.binaries.pictures.misc
*
~ This interminable, relentless sequence of imagery began in earnest on
January 1, 1995. The basic structure of the project has been over fifteen
years in the making. While the specific sequence of photographs has been
presently orchestrated for more than 5 years worth of 12-hour postings, I
will undoubtedly be tempted to tweak the ongoing publication with
additional new interjected imagery. Each 12-hour posting is like the
turning of a page; providing ample time for reflection, interruption,
and assimilation.
~ The sites listed above are currently active. They also contain some
information on other cultural projects.
~ A very low-volume mailing list for announcements and occasional
commentary related to this project has been established. Send e-mail to:
listserv@netcom.com /subscribe 12hr-isbn-jpeg
-- This project has been largely funded in advance. Some opportunities still exist for financially assisting the publication of a CD-ROM archive of all the 12hr-ISBN-JPEG imagery.-- Jpeg and gif are types of image files.

Dear Rep. Gingrich,
I want to thank you and express my support for the Gingrich-Elders plan.
This is your proposal for public schools to set aside a few minutes each day for silent masturbation.
I think this will improve our educational system greatly, and will be a boon to attendance and help cut down on "drop-outs".
You and Dr. Elders are to be commended for your willingness to put aside partisan differences and come together on this important measure.
Thank you again.
sincerely,
-- G. L. Dryfoos

My Name is Brandon Gregg and I'm in Biology at Harbor High School in Santa Cruz,CA. I'm only 14 but I'm conducting an experiment and I need a female gamete (egg) of a human, this I know is pretty hard to get, but I really need this. Other Female Gametes from other Species are okay too, but the Human egg is what I really needed and am looking for. If you get get a hold of one,have it sent to my lab, in the condition that it should be in; freezen or what ever, please e-mail me and I can give you my adderess and I will pay for any shippiong and Handling, but, this is education in the 90's and I can't afford the gamete. So if you can meet my request then please email me at BrandonG@ix.netcom.com Thanks Alot!! Oh, It's for an DNA experiment and, I'm not going to make a monster or something of that sort!
