Letterlocking is the art of folding and securing messages on paper without using external envelopes. Tamper-proof documents are created by hand using small slits, tabs, and folding techniques to allow the intended recipient to tell if the message has been intercepted. Analog encryption… the original “document security!”

Join me in the Salon for Possible Futures to learn some basic letterlocking techniques and discuss the very human practice of “passing secret notes.” No experience necessary. Free.

• Instructor: Laura Pensar

• Thursday, April 24th 5:30-6:30pm

• Free - supplies provided.

Presented as part of Amy Kligman’s Salon for Possible Futures at The Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art, Oppenheimer New Media Gallery (2nd floor).
