hello - i just recently discovered your letters page and am quite taken with the idea. i run a monthly online zine called nine things - the gist of it is each month i feature nine "things" by creative folk that i admire. you can see the first two "issues" at ninethingsmagazine.tumblr.com -- i would very much like to feature some of your letters in the upcoming march issue - would you be willing to send me a few scans (as few as one, as many as ten) of letters? you can email them to me at ninethingsmagazine@gmail.com - i hope you get to read this, i could not find an email button :-) most sincerely, todd webb
In April 2009, we sent a personal, handwritten letter to each of the 467 households in the small Irish village of Cushendall. We hoped these unsolicited letters would prompt neighbourly discussion, spreading across the town, promoting community curiosity.
In November 2009, we sent another bundle of letters, this time 620, to each home in Polish Hill, Pittsburgh, USA.
The art work consists solely of the discussion between the recipients about what on Earth these letters are, who sent them and why, etc.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful idea. I'm surprised that some people (in BBC segment, for example) don't like the letters.
Keep it up!
Love,
