The anticipated outcome is a fragmented narrative in the form of a series of postcards, each containing field notes, data sketches, overheard stories, and personal letters that will be sent back to my home address in Vienna. Each card serves both as a piece of the archive and a point of reflection. What happens to ethnography when it is mailed, when it travels? What kind of archive moves, and what kind of knowledge is allowed to be partial, poetic, and provisional? Perhaps the ghost towns offer an answer. Perhaps this is the only kind of archive they allow. | The anticipated outcome is a fragmented narrative in the form of a series of postcards, each containing field notes, data sketches, overheard stories, and personal letters that will be sent back to my home address in Vienna.

Inspired by Mail Art and the ''Dear Data'' project (Lupi & Posavec, 2016), each day I will compose one or more postcards and letters in response to the score. These postcards become both creative responses and data artifacts, serving as archival entries. Each card will mark a trace in relation to the ghost landscapes and at the end of the journey, I will post these postcards and letters back to my home address in Vienna, allowing the archive to travel alongside me. | Inspired by Mail Art and the ''Dear Data'' project (Lupi & Posavec, 2016), each day I will compose one or more postcards and letters in response to the score.
