“A Foreign Correspondence” is a collaborative endeavor that probes the significance of email as a means of connection. With the global count of email accounts surging past four billion and showing yearly growth, the email medium's role in worldwide interactions is undeniable. However, it's not immune to misuse, often exploited for scams that erode the bedrock of trust in online communication.

The initiative draws inspiration from Marconi's groundbreaking 1907 transatlantic radio signal, a concise 10,000-word leap into a new communication era. Echoing the innovative spirit of that era, the project seeks novel ways to foster connections in our present digital landscape. Additionally, the infusion of Hitchcock's 'Foreign Correspondent' adds a layer of intrigue, echoing the intricate web of human connections, the nebulous line between truth and deception, and their contemporary relevance in the digital tapestry.

At its core, the project embarks on the ambitious quest of sending 10,000 emails to unfamiliar recipients across the world over a span of thirty days. The outreach transcends language barriers and relies on AI-generated email addresses and soliciting participation from strangers. Through the exchange of personal stories, an intricate tapestry of human experiences emerges, countering the unreliable narratives rampant in the digital sphere. By spotlighting the beauty and resilience of human connections, the project nurtures empathy, kindles discourse, and fosters a renewed sense of optimism in our interconnected world.

Woven with historical and cinematic influences, the project artfully entwines the past and present, inviting contemplation on technology, trust, and the myriad facets of humanity. Rooted in an open and collaborative approach, “A Foreign Correspondence” invites both participants and observers to embark on a shared journey, shaping its ultimate form and collectively reimagining the potential of authentic human interaction within the digital landscape.
