Celebrating 10 years of One Terabyte Of Kilobyte Age !

Event Link

10 years ago, on February 7 2013, the very first screenshot of a freshly restored 1995 GeoCities homepage was posted to the One Terabyte Of Kilobyte Age tumblr blog. Since the start of this project by net artists Olia Lialina and Dragan Espenschied, more than 230,000 screenshots were circulated (with more than 160,000 still to come), inviting a new audience to discover and make sense of the history of user culture on the web.In this retrospective event, the artists will talk about different GeoCities design styles, showcase personal and audience favorites, talk about notable GeoCities users, and much more.
