Kære København

Kære København ('Dear Copenhagen') is a simple website allowing citizen of Copenhagen leave messages to the city of Copenhagen. These thoughts, ideas and complaints are then being rated by other users. The simple metaphor of a post-it is a well known medium for the users. It contains a range of already determined connotations such as the length of the message and the informal mean of communication. All comments has to start with "Dear Copenhagen, .. " which defines the relation towards the recipient as friendly and open.

We wanted to create a micro-political platform for easy communication between citizen and politicians in Copenhagen. Everybody can write 250 characters - it is not everybody who are capable of writing a well articulated letter to the editor of the local newspaper.

Kære København has been created in association with Mikael Stær and Henrik Ralf Nielsen. Follow the project on Facebook and Twitter.
