john kestner’s photoradio
is a concept for a digital picture frame that can also print – so that the images you email your friends and family can become real, tangible postcards. it was aimed at bridging the gap between generations, so that young people who are accustomed to communicating by computer can have a seamless connection to older people still using mail. it has a couple of nice design features: the printer can print on the front and back of stick card stock, to produce a realistic postcard from an image + text message, and the innards are accessed through delicate flaps on the picture frame that look like dog-eared pages.
