This was included with a letter to a friend, and is an exercise in disassembling, abstracting, and game-playing.
Front and back view of the folded envelope.
Front and back views of the envelope, unfolded. Notice the torn opening at the top and the appearance of an object inside, seen through the view window ...
This little guy slides out the top. You can see a flap on the left side.
With the side flap opened ...
And on the obverse, where the side flap has become a tab ...
To open upward ...
And slide out of its holder. Note that eight red shapes have appeared so far ...
Which becomes important in figuring out why the following eight cutouts are also in the holder. If matched up to the correct red shape, each cutout fits pretty close to the line drawing, forming a completed image of a woman's lower torso in red tights.
This is the negative of the cut out torsos, with a bluescreen'd background that reminds me of Smurfette trying on Papa's pants. It doesn't come in the mail with the other portions, but it's neat and procedurally educative.
And finally, the ad that started the project.
