2004年的夏天，Riitta Ikonen（芬兰艺术家）参与了布兰顿大学的一个名为“Location Vocation Vacation”的项目，她将每周的心得体验做成一份A6大小的明信片，从世界各处，日本、西班牙、俄罗斯、芬兰、英国⋯⋯寄给次年的插画导师Margaret Huber。这些明信片好似简装快递，内容五花八门：干果、地图、证件照、苔藓、头发、白色粉末、鱼骨头、纽扣⋯⋯150多份明信片源源不断的送达Margaret Huber的手中，只有5份未达目的地。

如今，这个项目还在继续着。Margaret Huber仍然不间断的收到这样有趣的明信片，收集一个人的生活，想必是一件美好的事情。

In 2004 a holiday project at the University of Brighton titled ‘Location Vocation Vacation’ called for mail art. One post card per week was to be sent as a document of experiences to Margaret Huber, the then second year Illustration tutor.  Around a hundred and fifty A6 sized cards have since been sent (and received) from all over the world. Hair, fish, a sachet of white powder, a piece of broken record, mossy bark… all dutifully delivered by postal workers. Only five cards have never reached their destination. Margaret still receives mail at irregular intervals.
