Artist Statement Postcard from Tunis is not an objective documentary (if such a thing actually exists). Instead, it's a playful, artistic exploration of writing: its histories, its inscriptions, its relationships with pictures and its relevance to the human-computer interface. This is set in a very personal, audiovisual portrait of Tunis, the capital of Tunisia. This is a city and culture that I love, and the home of my former family-in-law. I programmed the unique interface so that it echoes an actual visit, where you can't help learning a few Tunisian words and with time, maybe starting to read written Arabic. Although it was designed for adults, children have shown a strong affinity with the CD-ROM and the interface is bilingual in English and French. Source of Artist Statement
