  1. 01Print & Digital

    Heritage Lab

    Historical educational graphics, restored and reimagined.

    Research into the public-domain collections of the world's great museums and libraries, turned into digital prints and classroom resources: natural-history plates, maps, and Victorian educational graphics, as downloads and print-on-demand.

    The World Corpus

    The world's public-domain literature in the world's languages.

    A curated corpus of 131 public-domain classics in 43 languages and 13 writing systems, from Tamil and Bengali to the Cherokee syllabary and Ogham. Alongside them, the historical Englishes (Old and Middle English through original-spelling Early Modern) and the regional English literatures, from Ireland to Jamaica, that modern-spelling corpora don't carry. Clean Markdown, source and provenance on every book. CC0 content, MIT tooling.

  3. 03Generative Software

    The Visualizer

    Real-time generative graphics, rendered, not prompted.

    An audio-reactive visuals engine in the demoscene tradition. Everything it draws is real graphics and physics, computed every frame and driven live by sound, from plasma fields to a GPU fluid solver, then captured to 4K. None of it is AI image generation.
