PODS

PODS, a collection of Point of Delivery Signatures from courier company parcel-tracking systems. Background:

"In late 2012 I repeatedly missed a parcel being delivered to my home. After studying the ‘Sorry We Missed You’ cards left after each unsuccessful delivery, I realised I was able to track the packages movements; in this case, the times, dates and locations as it travelled from distribution centre to warehouse to my home and back to warehouse each subsequent time we had failed to meet. Eventually I was there to sign for the parcel, and, perhaps in need of remote confirmation that I was holding the parcel in my hands, checked the tracking system again. Alongside the usual information, I saw a small .jpg image of the signature I'd just left; a Point of Delivery (POD) signature. I keyed in an invented consignment number and saw the parcel information for a stranger; the times, movements and their similar JPEG image."
