Digital Nature: the Case Collection Version 2.0 is a net-based story-space that transforms an on-line library catalogue into an experimental narrative environment. The project consists of a database of digital objects from a fictional 1910 natural history expedition and software package that allows users to search, sequence, view, comment, and make connections between objects according to a set of rules in real-time. In short, Digital Nature can be thought of as a writing machine and real-time anthropological artifact generator, which exploits the popular forms of information culture
