This project presents a digital open letter using the
Travelogues and Post-cards archive AKON from the Austrian National
Library digital collection. This work arises primarily from a sentimental
relationship with the archive and personal experiences as a migrant. The
starting point was the reconfiguration of the collected text for the creation
of a new metafictional archive that relates the feeling of foreignness and
exoticism linked to the arrival in a new territory, and of course the
stereotypes that this entails. The visitor can go through the narration without
any specific order and submit to the exercise of empathy and of finding oneself
in what is foreign.
