MailboX is built to inspire individuals to be more positively connected by verbal and written conversation. Receiving a letter from a good friend used to be common practice but sadly we forget the importance of written correspondence.
MailboX begins its journey with the modern-day form of a letter (digital messaging). During i Light Marina Bay 2018, participants can send a tweet using the hashtag #ilightmarinabay. This message will then be displayed on the MailboX engaging the sender with the audience around the installation. MailboX also engages the audience through capturing ambient sound around it, which responds to the volume generated by the crowd, and then visualises the amount of conversation created on the facade of the MailboX.
