Museum of (un)sent emails

2014-2015

The Museum of (un)sent emails started as an attempt to connect the field of film and online platforms. The publicly accessible email archive is intended to serve as a research database for filmmakers and other creators to analyse the writings of different characters and use them as inspiration for their work.

The project soon expanded from the idea of an archive to the idea of an online museum, following curatorial practices and museum protocols. Visitors to the museum can view the current exhibition, past exhibitions and an archive of all the emails held by the museum, and can also donate their own sent and unsent emails.
