Field notes
The interface frames correspondence as a route rather than an instant exchange, using relay stations, travel distance, weather, and arrival estimates to give each letter a visible journey. Its supporting material includes a date-sensitive “old letter” view, a daily classical text, and a private incoming-letter prompt. The page identifies the current experience as browser-stored and says encrypted accounts with a cloud inbox are intended for the formal version.
