moulthrop, 1999, reagan library

written 20240113.

described by moulthrop as a “space probe”, a mixture of myst-like landscapes and garbled texts, which become less garbled as you revisit them. as they do, a set of linked narratives about memory and loss emerges, somehow connected to the strange monuments through which you navigate. i love this one, have written about it a lot in all sorts of scattered ways, and have a long-term aspiration to ressurect its eerie landscapes in a series of digital paintings.

those eerie landscapes will not load on a modern browser, but can be downloaded and viewed using the videopanoramas player. they are well worth downloading and looking at.
