My 2024 Mail Art Project

The Project & its Background:
I once stepped into the elevator of a thirty-floor building, which had no 13th floor button. Seeing the order jump from 12 to 14, I thought, “This is weird!” Had some designer or engineer made an outrageous mistake? Noticing more cases—on airplanes, for instance—I discovered the practice is widespread. But for one whoâ€s had a good relationship with 13 right from birth, this makes no sense.*
N°13 is not just synonymous with bad luck. It symbolizes many things. Some even enjoy playing with the numberâ€s reputation by taking a tongue-in-cheek approach. Take Finlandâ€s National Accident Day, for instance, which promotes safety on the roads, at work and in the home. Its annual day of celebration is always Friday the 13th.

Whatâ€s your take on N°13?
Letâ€s share a laugh or a touch of dread. I invite you to put what you feel, think or believe about the number on a postcard and post it by Friday, September the 13th, using this address:

N° 13
Taivaanvuohentie 3 B 13
00200 Helsinki
Finland

Recommendations:
material must be child friendly // common postcard size (10 x 15 cm / 4 x 6 in) preferred //
media: free // no jury, no fee, no return // please include contact info (email)
All works received will be exhibited at https://postboxtomailboxnoplainart.blogspot.com and a
digital publication (catalogue) will postdate the project.

Questions: 4johngayer@gmail.com

*The paradox embodied in this tale is that the ‘dangerous†number hadnâ€t disappeared. Its digits had merely been reversed to identify the highest storey. Imagine, this thirty-floor building had a 31st floor.

Deadline: 15 August 2021
