a project to excavate shut down, abandoned web ruins and restore them to surfable, visually accessible, searchable, remixable condition
somewhere between a library and a living museum, we're working on experimental new ways to close the gap between archival and visibility of the web that was lost
restorativland equipment and hosting bills are 100% powered by small individual contributors like you, who are interested in keeping the history of the web alive
a tiny band of nonprofits, rogues, artists, and hackers do most of the real work to archive the web. something about our work would not be possible without them
negativland, whom we are not affiliated with but are a major inspiration for the project
