Connections Renewed - Learning to Love Junk Mail

Kristen Kilpatrick

Abstract

Connections Renewed is a project created to reconnect viewers to the real concept that mail brings. Everything is digital in the world today and you can be connected through the internet. Mail is meant to be a way that people can communicate even if there is no other means to do so, but mostly we get ads, coupons, newspapers, and so much more junk mail in our mailboxes. So what if the way we saw these pieces of junk mail was different? Can we still make emotional connections to letters that are from people we have no connections to?
