Hope is concerned with the future as memory is with the past.

Aristotle
The word museum comes from
the Greek Mouseion, shrine of the Muses.
In turn, the muses have been called the the daughters of memory
by
William Blake, Ezra Pound, and
James Joyce.
Our museum is the home to our private muses, the memory of our past.
The first is Rescued Works, sites we have chosen
to refurbish and republish on the Internet for posterity. The second is Living Works, sites
we created that now have a life of their own and are maintained by someone else. And the third are what we
call the World Wide Cobweb, sites that live on the net in their original state without any active
maintenance.
