The Dead Media Project consists of a database of field Notes written and researched by members of the Project's mailing list.

The Dead Media List consists of occasional email to that stout band of souls who have declared some willingness to engage in this recherche field of study.

For more information on the purpose of the project, please read Bruce Sterling's Dead Media Manifesto. For more information on the mailing list, including how to join, please read the Frequently asked questions.

The collection of dead media working notes is the purpose of the mailing list; the accumulated, archived, (and now collated!) collection of submissions from list members; an ad hoc database of the deceased, the slowly-rotting, the undead, and the never-lived media.

February 2024 note: this site is frozen. It was generated through a social process, readers sendign submissions with a defined file style, I massaged them as necessary and used various shell scripts to generate the HTML and put files and images into the right places. The HTML generated was a poor quality, and the remaining website contents were massaged into meeting current assumptions. Therefore the scripts are all defunct. The scripts and boilerplate and cannted texts are all contained in a ZIP file available here now: Site-generation.zip.

• The Dead Media Project site at Griffith Multimedia. One of the authors told me that he and others listed in the credits for the site, are no longer actively involved in its maintenance. Quite lovely nonetheless.
• Last, but hardly least, Bruce Sterling's home page contains many dead-media related things, including >>gasp<< gopherspace.
