INFORMATION
About this collection
What is kept here and how it was made.
Acquisition policy
Only instruments that finish on the visitor's own device are kept here. Nothing is asked in exchange for their use: no name, no address. Files never reach the collection, so no one on this side can look at them.
Layout
Six rooms make up the permanent display, and 62 works are set out across them. One further work, a small game written in plain WebGL2, is shown separately.
Before you enter
Rooms already opened keep working after the line is cut. Whatever is set aside stays inside the browser that holds it.
