Facebook Message

Weird religious spam message on Facebook this weekend (from someone I don’t know), including an over-compressed image of some scripty text, a poem (I guess), and a text-to-speech voice message, which is transcribed below.

“Rice plant this is for you. Read till the end, it’s adorable. Post box I sent an angel to watch over you last night, but it came back and I asked ‘why?’ The angel said, ‘the angels don’t watch over angels.’ 20 angels are in your world, 10 of them are sleeping, 9 of them are playing, and one is reading this message. God has seen you struggling with some things, and God says it’s over. A blessing is coming your way. Tulip if you believe in God, send this to 14 friends, including me. If I don’t get it back, I guess I’m not one of them. As soon as you get five replies, someone you love will quietly surprise you. Not joking maple leaf. Pass this message on. Please don’t ignore it. You are being tested, and God is going to fix two big things tonight in your favor. If you believe in God, drop everything and pass it on. Tomorrow will be the best day of your life. Don’t break this. Send this to 14 friends in 10 minutes, it’s not that hard. However sent this to you must care about you. You are an angel strawberry smile with a strawberry.”

Junk Mail/Artist Book

IMG_8503

An amazing thing arrived unsolicited in the mail yesterday. It included the above items: a fake email printout from a boss to a sales person telling them to buy my car, a fake handwritten note at the bottom to me, and a fake handwritten note on fake legal pad paper.

It’s pretty easy to see through this and realize it’s junk mail, but the overall complexity of the package, the way my name and the make/model of my car is integrated, makes for a pretty amazing object. This will certainly be added to my collection of algorithmically-generated artist books and ephemera.
