Here is a Huffington Post interview she did about the project.
I've tried to get friends to do this with me before: let's send each other emails that we've sent to our moms or our boyfriends or something. There is something about the mundane-ness that feels very intimate to me. I thought I would do that idea on a grand scale. At first I thought I'd do it with my friends but then I realized no one would care about them as much as I did. So I chose some of my more famous friends, or famous people that weren't friends. I came up with 10 topics and they had to scavenge through their inboxes for an email that fit each topic.
