I have wondered about this as well. I enjoy reading about the work being
done here, but would enjoy actually seeing it. The traveling portfolio
is an interesting idea since it wouldn't necessarilly require us all to
travel quite so far. I'd be willing to help set something up in the
Denver/Boulder (Colorado, USA). Another crazy idea would be to run
something similar to a chain letter scheme. If you subscribed to this,
you would receive a print from someone that you could look at for a week
or so before mailing it on to the next person on the list. I realize
that there are serious security problems with this, but offer it only as
an idea. Perhaps it will spawn a more workable solution?

How did this work?
