While watching a beachfront sunset in Kaikoura, New Zealand, we took notice of the unique sound the surf created when retreating over the black pebble sand. If only there was a way to capture this moment in a way that leaves a bit to the imagination. It was at this intersection The Postcards Project was born.
When video is too revealing, and photos too static, The Postcards Project marries a field recording with a snapshot of its location to allow the listener to create their own vision of that scene. Some Postcards provide a relaxing retreat, others capture the ambience of a bustling street market, but all play on the theater of the mind.
Choose your Postcard and take a well deserved mental vacation right now!
