The Wilderness Downtown

Did you try this yet?  The Wilderness Downtown is an interactive film by Chris Milk with the music of Arcade Fire (you need to do through Google Chrome for it to work properly).  It asks for your address of the home your grew up in - and then the video uses images from your home with other images.  You even get the chance to write a letter to your younger self that lived in your old house.  Here is the image of the postcard I wrote myself. I have to say, it was an eerie experience considering I used the address of the house that was destroyed in a tornado....

I have heard about this - it is all over FB. Will maybe try to check it out. I don't know if I even remember one address of a house I lived in growing up as we moved about every two years between the time I was born until I went to college. NOLA, STL, or Boston? I am not sure I even know where home is!
