Alles ist Wechselwirkung –Alexander von Humboldt
Everything is Deeply Intertwingled –Ted Nelson

innovation + interaction design for culture projects

Sharing Heritage provides meaning about our present and cause for our future. Open cultural data – as collected and provided by the openGLAM movement (= galleries, libraries, archives, museums) – is a treasure trove of our human history and understanding of the universe. The Chrono Research Lab chooses a few of these cultural wells and republishes collections with new design and interactive interfaces.

The historic and cultural time rides –as provided by the Chrono Research Lab– are a free service by Matthias Müller-Prove. You can explore more then 8,000 georeferenced old maps, browse through more than 5,000 info spots, and enjoy 42 ChronoScrolls and vintage photo sets.

On the other hand this means that there are some expenses on traveling across centuries. You can support future trips by your donation. Thank you!
