When computers were first becoming common, emails were a very exciting means of communication. Letters had become commonplace and boring, and communication via letter stopped. Now, as computers have become the expectation, most spam comes through email instead of physical mail.

This has caused a very interesting switch to the point that physical mail is now very exciting to receive, and very rare. Simply owning stationary for anything other than special events is unheard of. It is a new perspective on how we perceive the digital world. While we are all excited about the advancements that digital spaces provide, we are still physical beings. We crave personal interaction and physical interactions.

As the world is becoming more and more digital, with NFTs and Meta, we will continue to see a longing for the past. People will be drawn more and more to physical art, live events, and mail.
