a project by Suse Miessner
There are different ways to participate in the Urban Alphabets project. The easiest way is to get your smartphone out of the pocket and download the iOS app.
The Android app is currently in development and is expected to go online in early April 2014.
The second way to participate in the Urban Alphabets project is attending one of the CCN Events in 2014. These events will take place in Aarhus, Berlin, Helsinki, Liverpool, Madrid, Riga, and Sao Paulo. During the event you can use the current Urban Alphabet of your city to write your own Urban Postcards and send them to the Media facade in your city!

Aarhus: 20.-22. November 2014
Berlin: 12.-14. September 2014
