a project to excavate shut down, abandoned web ruins and restore them to surfable, 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 is 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
