How to use postcards to tell a story

13 Postkarten für 10€

Gesa Martha Bachmann

This is a video that was made with 13 postcards of the region of South-Tyrol, bought on the fleamarket of Bozen-Bolzano.

The video starts with zooming in on the postcards, and with the help of AI the last shown postcard states telling a story starts telling a story. The people in the postcard start moving and telling their own little story. 

in Addition to the video I created a book of the 13 postcards, examining them further and focusing on the zooming in of the cards and the information on the cards, setting them in a new context.

What’s a Tool?

Does the tool change the hand that uses it? Students explored several tools to build design projects, documenting their process with vertical video. Each video shows one tool’s arc: from idea finding to experiment, design, and explanation. Creative tools shape what we create.
