Hundred // Origami envelope and a secret message [May 2010]

100 envelopes for 100 people.

Probably on your desk you have noticed a strange origami envelope, folding in a graph paper.

In the era of internet where the contacts between people are made by quick emails, fast twitter
updates or facebook message, we chose an old and not more used, exception to the bureaucrats,
way to communicate with you.

The reason is simple, we would like to thank you to meet you.
We have just send you a lens for your imagination, a hole to a hidden place, a window to a secret world.
What you have to do it is simple: tell us what you see and send back as you prefer by email or mail, your imagination.

What will it be for, you will discover soon.

First step // sending the postcards

Second Step // receiving confirmation from our friends

The postcards just arrived to destination, here are some images that they send to us.

Box
Candle or flashlight
Coin
Some lightweight papers
Sketchbook
Pencil
Hourglass or stopwatch

These are the elements to start to play and discover again one of the eastern most charming games:
“Hand shadow play” or “Chinese shadows”.

The rules are simple you have to divide into groups.
Then Heads or Tails? Pull the coin so you will know who will start the game.
Choose a subject, draw it on paper, just you and the opposing team will be aware of what you are going to create by your hands.
You have only 3 minutes to form the shadows and let your friends guess your image.
Ready? So turn the hourglass….
This game was realized with objects bought from flea market, and small shops in Bangkok.
We have chosen elements easy to find everywhere.
With this game we want to give you a timeless inspiration.
