Linda Byrne

“No Results for Thirty-Three” uses a systematic numerical search to uncover the breadth of the Wellcome Collection’s digital archive and explores connections between medicine, life and art. The results formed a print-on-demand tabloid published through Newspaper Club, and an interactive ePub can be downloaded from the Internet Archive.

A webarchive version of the publication upload on the Newspaper Club wesbite can be previewed here. This archival copy was created via webrecorder.io, since the online newsagent section of the Newspaper Club was closed to the public in March 2018.

Aline Geuquet

Aline’s project explores the online platform of The Metropolitan Museum of Art (MET) and the platform Facebook. The first chapter of ‘The Unicorn Tapestries’ – a book written by Margaret B. Freedman about a set of exquisite medieval tapestries exhibited at the MET – is compared with a selection of people’s comments on social media about unicorns and the online collection of the MET.

The print-on-demand book is available on the Blurb platform and the digital publication is published through ISSUU and is also available for downloaded from the Internet Archive.
