Postcards and their art of interaction

The one thing that has been continuously present while doing this project and researching is that wherever postcards are involved in projects it also involves, or at least looks to use, interaction. It makes perfect sense when you consider that the original purpose of a postcard was to inform family, friends or loved ones of your travels or experiences and to interact. A little momentum that you're ok and having a good time but also usually ending with something along the lines of missing people.

I found another project that I like for the interaction and the human connections. Something that I found particularly insightful was how much people disclosed or didn't. The project is called 'Postcard exchange' and was organised by the New Orleans Kid Camera Project kids who swapped with young photographers in New York.
