Talkies
A photo that talks back.
A Talkie is the photo, the voice and the story — together in a minute-long film. Made to be watched on a phone and kept forever.
“Every time I see this one, I can feel how hot my feet were in those shoes.”
“I didn’t even know this picture existed until my granddaughter found it on the internet and called me screaming.”
“This picture has lived in my wallet for over thirty years, which is why the corners are cut off.”
Chiku brought back their memories.
“Forty years, and I’d never heard about Mom’s first dance.”
“I just talk about my pictures. It feels like visiting with an old friend.”
“The Talkies are the first thing our kids ask to watch when we visit Grandpa.”

Mom, 87, and her photosChiku began with my mom.
“At 87, her days had grown quiet. Then we pulled out photos from 70 years ago, and she came alive. Stories I’d never heard came pouring out.”
