project description

With analogies to spam, Annabel Castro Meagher questions the use of public data for intrusions into private realms by collecting names and addresses of random individuals extracted from the web, and using the data to contact them privately with intimate, hand-written letters. The communication is then presented on a website – returning the physical documentation to the virtual sphere. On the website, Meagher enters the names of each person contacted, the date a letter was mailed to them, and summary of the letter.
